Stand-up comedian and television host Kapil Sharma recently gave back to a troll on social media as he welcomed the New Year in his trademark style. He clapped back at the criticism with wit, sarcasm, and a playful comeback. He also extended New Year wishes to the troll as well as his fans after giving a befitting reply.
It started after a user shared a clip from The Great Indian Kapil Show online. The clip was from the episode featuring women cricketers and their coach Amol Muzumdar as guests. The user accused Kapil of confusing real-life hockey goalkeeper Mir Ranjan Negi, by whose life the film Chak De! India was inspired with the fictional coach Kabir Khan, portrayed by Shah Rukh Khan in the film.
