Divorce over snoring? Bhaijaan thinks so

As Kapil Sharma gears up for the third season of The Great Indian Kapil Show on June 21, a leaked clip from the première has stirred controversy. In the video, Salman Khan, who shares the stage with Kapil, says, “Even if someone puts their leg over another while sleeping, they file for divorce. Some even divorce over snoring — and take half the money [in alimony] too!” His comments, made during a discussion on modern relationships, have divided netizens. While some hailed Salman’s “honest” view, calling him “clear-headed since the start,” others slammed it as “insensitive” and reductive. Navjot Singh Sidhu, returning to the show after six years, and Archana Puran Singh are seen laughing. Netflix is yet to release the trailer.

Comic kaun?

Ayushmann Khurrana

The buzz is that Ayushmann Khurrana  is set to star in out-and-out comedy, his next with Bhushan Kumar and Juno Chopra as producers. The quirky family comedy is expected to be a balanced entertainer, with situational humour with slapstick elements. We have learnt that casting for the project is underway. Apparently, the makers are yet to decide the leading lady for the project. The movie is set to start production in September. In the interim, Ayushmann will start work on Sooraj Barjatya’s family drama (New Prem, new plot, June 7). According to reports, it will go on floors in November.
