Chandigarh, October 1

It’s a task sitting for six to seven hours in a particular position in a sofa, facing the stage and listening to every joke that is being cracked and then react to it.

A debate within the fans had arisen with the possibility of Navjot Singh Sidhu returning to The Kapil Sharma Show and how it would affect Archana Puran Singh.

Archana has an answer to all those who feel that she will not have anything to do if she has to vacate the show, in case Navjot Singh Sidhu wanted to re-enter.

It all began with Sidhu quitting the Punjab Congress chief post and paved a way for memes, a few of which Archana Puran Singh, too, shared on her Instagram account.

Archana Puran Singh, in an interview had said, “If Sidhu would seriously re-enter the show in my place, I will have many other things to do, which I have refused in the past few months. Since I am shooting for two days in a week for the show, I can't take up any assignment, which is out of Mumbai or India. In the past few months, I got several opportunities to shoot in London and other foreign countries but I had to say a no because of my commitment to the show.”

The cast has also often joked about how Sidhu's return could pose a threat to Archana's position on the show. Addressing these jokes, Archana said, “Kapil's show writers come up with all kinds of jokes and I can't help but laugh at them because they are funny. It is a task to come up with gags everyday and keep the show running for the last 10 years. But all those who feel I don't have anything to do in the show should come on the sets to see how it is not easy to sit 6-7 hours in a particular position, facing the stage. I have to constantly sit in an angle for 4-7 hours on that sofa and face the stage, listen to every joke that's cracked and then react to it.”

Actor Archana Puran Singh had replaced Sidhu as the guest judge on the show when he left in 2019.
