In a witty exchange on social media, comedian Kapil Sharma responded to a troll who criticized him for a perceived factual error regarding the film Chak De! India on The Great Indian Kapil Show. The incident arose after Sharma made a light-hearted comment during an episode featuring the Indian Women's cricket team and their coach, Amol Muzumdar.
During the show, Sharma jokingly compared Muzumdar to Shah Rukh Khan's character, Kabir Khan, from Chak De! India, a film loosely inspired by the life of former Indian hockey goalkeeper Mir Ranjan Negi. This prompted a user on X to call Sharma an "idiot," asserting that the real hero behind Chak De! India was Negi, not the fictional character portrayed by Khan. The user seemed upset that Sharma was confusing the real-life hero with the reel hero.
Sharma, known for his quick wit and humor, didn't hold back in his response. Addressing the troll directly, he clarified that he had, in fact, mentioned Shah Rukh Khan, not Kabir Khan, and that his comment was intended to be humorous. He further added, with his characteristic sarcasm, that the troll probably wouldn't understand the joke anyway.
"Dear sir when did I say Kabir khan? I said Shahrukh khan, and it was in a humorous way, which you will never understand bcoz apka taansane to besura hai hahaha, anyways happy new year. Stay happy n spread happiness," Sharma wrote on X. The phrase "apka taansane to besura hai" translates to "your Tansen is out of tune," implying the troll lacked a sense of humor.
Other users responded to the exchange, with one encouraging Sharma to ignore such "jokers" and focus on spreading happiness. Sharma replied that he was just sitting in the "toilet" at the time, seemingly downplaying the seriousness of the exchange.
Kapil Sharma's humorous clap back at the troll quickly went viral, with many praising his wit and ability to handle criticism with humor. The incident highlights the constant scrutiny celebrities face on social media and Sharma's adeptness at navigating online trolls while maintaining his comedic persona. This recent event showcases Sharma's ability to blend humor and festive cheer, even when addressing criticism.
