Sumukhi Suresh's stand-up special

India Today06-06-2025

Sumukhi Suresh—stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and producer—is the kind of entertainer whose comic timing always has main character energy, whether she's crafting zingers for a film, stealing scenes on a Netflix show, or holding court on stage. In the last year alone, she's written dialogues for Vikramaditya Motwane's CTRL, lit up Netflix's The Royals as Keerthana, the charmingly chaotic assistant to Bhumi Pednekar's girlboss Sophia, and taken her stand-up special Hormonal on a wildly successful tour across India. And on June 7, she brings the curtain down on her tour, performing the last show at NMACC in Mumbai.

(Also Read: Kapil Sharma looks leaner than ever as he flaunts weight loss transformation; fans say 'he's inspired by Karan Johar') Kapil Sharma reveals Netflix's increased budget helped them afford Navjot Singh Sidhu. Kapil opened the show with his trademark humour and, while welcoming Sidhu, took some light-hearted jabs at his comeback. He said, 'I want to thank Netflix for giving us that much budget that we could afford Sidhu paaji.' He went on to say, 'Paaji, after so many years you are back in this chair, bhale hi gathbandhan ki sarkar bani ho (even though it is a united alliance). How are you feeling? Netflix is spending big, but how do you feel?' Sidhu replied with a shayari, 'June can't come between July and August and Dehradun (Archana) can't come in between two people from Amritsar (him, Kapil).' Kapil Sharma takes a dig at Archana Puran Singh's vlogs Kapil further joked that it took six months to bring out the new season because of Sidhu, but later admitted that he was busy filming his two upcoming films. While Kapil boasted about his upcoming projects, Archana took the opportunity to share that she had also been busy doing her vlogs. Kapil then took a dig at her vlogs and said, 'That's a great excuse for her family to feast for free. It's not called a vlog, it's called fraud.' He further joked that Archana demands discounts from restaurants, citing she is a popular actor, and when someone refuses to recognise her, she asks for discounts in the name of her husband Parmeet Sethi, who has worked in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. About The Great Indian Kapil Show The fourth season kicked off with Salman as the guest.

Salman Khan Reveals Sohail Khan Eloped With Seema Sajdeh, Mocks Their Divorce: 'Ab Woh Bhi Bhaag Gayi'

Last Updated: On The Great Indian Kapil Show, Salman Khan jokingly roasted brother Sohail and ex-sister-in-law Seema Sajdeh while recalling a funny incident with Avinash Gowariker. Salman Khan brought his trademark humour and unfiltered honesty to the latest episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix, where he didn't hesitate to take playful digs — not even sparing his own family. In a light-hearted segment, the superstar shared anecdotes from his famous Galaxy Apartments home in Bandra, pulling in brother Sohail Khan and ex-sister-in-law Seema Sajdeh into the punchlines. While chatting with host Kapil Sharma about how his home has always had an open-door policy for guests, Salman recalled how celebrity photographer Avinash Gowariker once asked to stay at their home for a few days while house-hunting. The Khan family agreed — but those few days stretched into years. Salman shared, 'He said he would stay for a few days until he found a house. A few years later, I asked him what happened to the house hunt. He said, 'I found one a few days after coming here, but I subleased it because your house has such a great vibe.'" That wasn't all. Salman then used another hilarious example involving Avinash but didn't miss a chance to roast his brother. He said, 'Usi dauran Sohail ne bhaag kar shadi karli. Ab woh bhi bhag gayi hain," sparking loud laughter from Navjot Singh Sidhu and Archana Puran Singh. The actor's witty jab referred to Sohail's marriage with Seema Sajdeh, which began when they eloped and ended in a quiet separation. Salman continued the story, explaining how Sohail once asked Avinash to vacate the room to make space for him and Seema. Avinash, surprised, reportedly asked, 'This is not fair, how can you get married like this?" Sohail and Seema tied the knot in 1998 with an Arya Samaj wedding followed by a nikkah. They welcomed two sons — Nirvan in 2000 and Yohan in 2011. After 24 years of marriage, they parted ways in 2022. Seema, who appeared on Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, is now reportedly in a new relationship with her ex-fiance, Vikram Ahuja. Salman Khan's last big-screen appearance was in Sikandar. Co-starring Rashmika Mandanna, the film is directed by acclaimed filmmaker AR Murugadoss. Besides the two leads, it also features Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, and Sathyaraj in pivotal roles. It is currently available for streaming on Netflix. First Published:

Uske Bawajood Kaam Kar Rahe... Salman Khan Opens Up On Brain Aneurysm And AV Malformation

New Delhi: Bollywood superstar Salman Khan made a startling revelation about his health during a recent appearance on The Great Indian Kapil Show, now streaming on Netflix. The 59-year-old actor spoke candidly about the physical toll his body has taken over the years, disclosing a series of serious medical conditions he is currently battling, including a brain aneurysm and an arteriovenous malformation (AVM). 'Hum ye jo daily ki haddiyan tudwa rahe hain, pasliyan toot gai, trigeminal neuralgia ke sath kaam kar rahe hain, aneurysm hai brain mein uske bawajood kaam kar rahe hain. AV malformation hai, uske bawajood chal rahe hain,' Salman said during the episode. ("I'm out here breaking my bones every day — ribs are fractured, I'm working despite having trigeminal neuralgia, there's an aneurysm in the brain, yet I'm still working. There's also an AV malformation, and still, I'm carrying on.") The actor explained that he continues to work despite these health setbacks, emphasising that age and repeated injuries have made recovery harder. This is not the first time Salman has spoken about trigeminal neuralgia — a rare and extremely painful nerve disorder. He had previously opened up about the condition in 2017 during a promotional event for his film Tubelight in Dubai. At the time, he referred to it as the 'suicide disease,' a nickname given due to the intense pain many sufferers endure.
