Comedian Kapil Sharma is back with a new season of The Great Indian Kapil Show, and joining him once again is Navjot Singh Sidhu, now a permanent guest. Ahead of its official premiere, a leaked video featuring Salman Khan—who is reportedly the first guest of the season—has gone viral, stirring conversations online.
Salman’s take on modern marriages and alimony
In the now-viral clip, Salman Khan can be seen donning a Being Human T-shirt and speaking candidly about the decline of tolerance in relationships. He remarked, “Pehle log ek dusre ke liye sacrifice karte the, ek tolerance ka factor tha. Ab raat ko ek taang aa jaati hai upar, khaarate liye jaate hain, uske upar divorce ho jaata hai. Chhoti si misunderstanding pe divorce ho jaata hai. Aur phir divorce toh chalo ho gaya, voh aadhe paise bhi leke chali jaati hai.” (Earlier, people would make sacrifices for each other. Now even a leg over someone in sleep or snoring can lead to divorce. And after that, she also takes half the money.)
