Recent reports of a feud between Kiku Sharda and Krushna Abhishek, suggesting Kiku's departure from "The Great Indian Kapil Show," have been refuted by Kiku Sharda himself. The rumors began circulating after a video surfaced appearing to show a heated exchange between the two comedians. However, sources close to the show have clarified that the video was part of a scripted prank or rehearsal segment and not indicative of any real animosity.

Adding fuel to the speculation was the announcement of Kiku Sharda's participation in a new reality show, "Rise & Fall," which will be streamed on Amazon MX Player, a direct competitor to Netflix, where "The Great Indian Kapil Show" airs. This led some to believe that Kiku's departure was due to scheduling conflicts or a move to a rival platform.

However, Archana Puran Singh, a permanent member of "The Great Indian Kapil Show," has dismissed these rumors as baseless. She stated that Kiku has already completed shooting for upcoming episodes and remains an integral part of the show. She also emphasized the camaraderie among the team members.

In fact, Kiku Sharda has expressed positive sentiments about working with Krushna Abhishek. In a recent vlog with Mr. Faisu, Kiku praised Krushna, calling him a very hardworking person. He specifically mentioned that Krushna has been his favorite cast member since "The Great Indian Kapil Show" began.

The video that sparked the rumors showed Kiku seemingly irritated, saying to Krushna, "Timepass kar raha hu? (You are doing timepass?)". Krushna responded, "To phir thik hai aap karlo. Aap karlo, bhai koi problem nahi hai. Main jata hu yaha se (Alright then, you do it. You go ahead, brother, no problem. I'll leave from here)". Kiku then said, "Baat yeh hai ke mujhe bulaya hai toh main apna khatam kar lona pehle (The thing is, since I've been called, let me finish my part first)". Krushna, attempting to defuse the situation, replied, "I love you and respect you, I don't want to raise my voice," to which Kiku concluded, "Raise voice ka baat nahi hai, aap isko galat tarike se leke jaa rahe hai (It's not about raising the voice, you are taking it in a wrong way)".

Despite the circulation of this video and the subsequent rumors, sources maintain that Kiku and Krushna share a friendly and professional relationship. Any perceived conflict was part of the show's comedic act.

Kiku Sharda's involvement in "Rise & Fall" is not expected to interfere with his role on "The Great Indian Kapil Show". He is said to have signed on for the new project after fulfilling his commitments to Kapil's show.

Therefore, Kiku Sharda has shut down any speculation of a feud with Krushna Abhishek and has affirmed that he will continue to be a part of "The Great Indian Kapil Show".
