Comedy Nights with Kapil is an Indian comedy show that airs on Colors TV channel. The show is hosted by comedian Kapil Sharma. The format of the show is mixed, with Sharma acting out skits on stage with supporting characters, while also interacting with members in the audience and permanent guest Navjot Singh Siddhu. It often features celebrity guests who usually appear to promote their latest films, and with whom the actors interact in-character. The show has an ex tempore feel and strongly resembles the British comedy-interview show The Kumars at No. 42.[1][2]
The show features other actors such as Sumona Chakravarti, Ali Asgar, Upasana Singh and Naseem Vicky playing various members of Sharma's family.[3]
After the conclusion of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, the show became the India's highest rated serial in the non-fiction category garnering viewership rating greater than KBC and Big Boss.[4]
