Archana Puran Singh has spoken out against claims that she always “laughs and does nothing” on the Kapil Sharma Show. The actress has said that she doesn’t laugh at anything and everything on the comedy show.
Archana has revealed that she is still paying the cost of her days on the comedy show Comedy Circus, adding footage of her laughing after each joke, irrespective of whether she laughed or not. The actor told a major newspaper, “The team edited the episode (Comedy Circus) so that my laughter was added to almost every act, and even where I hadn’t laughed. This was wrong because it made me look like I had even laughed at a boring joke when in fact I hadn’t. I have nothing against the creators, but it saddens me that the editors did not pay attention.”
In his defense, he added, “It is not easy to sit for hours and judge an action. Likewise, if you notice it on Kapil’s show, I’m not laughing at any jokes. But since that’s the impression people still get from my comedy circus days, I still bear the brunt of the fact that Archanaji laughs and does nothing on the show.”
Archana replaced the cricketer and politician Navjot Singh Sidhu as the guest of honor. The Kapil Sharma Show in February 2019. Since then, he has laughed at jokes about her and even shares memes about her. “Mujhe itne phoolon ke bouquets aaye hai, mubarak ho, Archana ma’am kyunki wo wahaan par ban gaye (I received so many bouquets and congratulatory messages when Sidhu took office),” he had said.
Archana Puran Singh has been working in the world of Bollywood and TV for the last 30 years. The actress charges 10 lakh rupees for shooting an episode of ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’. Archana has her own luxurious bungalow in which lives with her entire family.
