Archana Puran Singh highlights Kapil Sharma’s challenging journey and the emotional roots of his comedy: “He was gifted with the rare talent to make the world laugh”
In her new vlog on YouTube, actor and television personality Archana Puran Singh reflected on Kapil Sharma’s early life struggles and the emotional depth behind his humor. Joined by her husband Parmeet Sethi and their sons Aaryamann and Ayushmaan, Archana visited music composer Yashraj Mukhate at his home, where candid conversations revealed the inspiration behind one of India’s most celebrated comedians.
When Yashraj expressed his admiration for Kapil, saying he still finds him “underrated,” Archana replied, “That’s so sweet. Main Kapil ko bolungi. He is supremely talented and has an amazing presence of mind. He still surprises me with his punches. I have seen him performing from the last15 years. Usmein bahut depth hai; itna humour aa hi nahi sakta agar aapmein depth na ho. Music and art kuch nahi aa sakta agar aap mein depth na ho toh.”
She elaborated, “If you can make someone laugh, it means there’s a lot of pain inside you. Kapil has witnessed immense struggle—his childhood was marked by poverty, and he lost his father to cancer. Despite all this, he was gifted with the rare talent to make the world laugh.” Yashraj added by saying, “His skill is truly unmatched.”
Addressing long-standing criticism about her on‑camera laughter, Archana clarified that earlier laughter on shows like Comedy Circus and The Kapil Sharma Show was often artificially inserted by editors, “When people say ki aap unnecessary hasate ho…pehle toh edit ka nonsense tha comedy circus ke time, meri hasi zabardasti daalte the. The punch wasn’t even good; my laugh was edited after that, and I used to look really ridiculous. But yes, the agar joke is 19‑20, then I have to make it 21, but it can’t be a 5…”
Now that editing practices have evolved, she assured that her laughter on current shows is more genuine and earned. This vlog not only offered a peek into Archana’s personal reflections but also renewed appreciation for Kapil Sharma’s remarkable rise from hardship to Hindi comedy stardom.
