He then recalled, “When Shah Rukh Khan’s shoot got cancelled, he met me three or four days later. He had come to the same studio for something. Maybe, as an artist, he understood what was happening. He is a superstar, after all, and he has seen everything in this industry. He called me to his car, we sat for an hour, and talked. He asked me, ‘Drugs leta hai?‘. I told him I don’t take drugs, but I no longer feel like working. He told me some very nice things and counselled me. But this is one of those situations that you can’t improve unless you yourself want to.”

During an interaction with Rajat Sharma in Aap Ki Adalat, Kapil Sharma said, “There was a time when big stars like Anil Kapoor, Ajay Devgan, Akshay Kumar, and Shah Rukh Khan kept waiting on the sets of The Kapil Sharma Show, but you never showed up for the shoot.” Kapil answered that he did cancelled the shootings because he was dealing with mental health issues.

For unversed, Kapil returned to the small screen with a bang with the new season of his comedy show. And now he is all set to make his big screen comeback with Zwigato, which comes 5 years after his 2017 film Firangi.
