The tables were turned on actor-comedian Kapil Sharma when he appeared on his show, The Kapil Sharma Show. He will be seen promoting his film Zwigato with director Nandita Das and co-star Shahana Goswami in an upcoming episode of the show. Rajiv Thakur, a comedian, will be seen interviewing the cast about the film.
Sharma appears in a new promo for The Kapil Sharma Show as a guest alongside Das and Goswami. He makes fun of Thakur and his anchoring from the start. At one point in the trailer, Thakur asks Goswami, who co-starred with Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in Heroine and Ra.One, if she got the roles after auditioning or if friendship was enough. “Ye filmein hain, yahan dosti nahi chalti..ye Kapil Sharma Show nahi, jisme sab doston ko daal liya hai inhone,” Goswami responds. This isn’t the Kapil Sharma Show, where Kapil has invited all of his friends).”

Shahana spoke about the film ahead of its release. “I’ve worked with Nandita Das before on Firaaq,” she told Indian Express of her collaboration with Nandita Das and Kapil Sharma. My second inning with Zwigato follows my first with Kapil (Sharma). I have a very easy flow when I’m with Nandita. We’re friends, and I enjoy working as an actor with her. As a director, she teaches me a lot. It was so simple with Kapil. I wasn’t sure how he’d react. He’s a huge celebrity. I wasn’t sure he’d be able to act. Nandita told me that he’d be able to play this character in Zwigato.”
“When Nandita first mentioned him to me, I was like, ‘Kapil?’ but then I thought it was a good idea. I didn’t know him at first. I hadn’t even seen his show, but I had a feeling he could pull it off. When I first met him, I was convinced that he’d nail it because he’s such a genuine person. He has that ability and is very talented. He was also involved in theatre as a child. “He’s a great actor, and I had a great time working with him,” she added.
Previously, Kapil explained why he decided to work on an independent film. He stated that he has nothing to lose if the film fails to wow the audience. Meanwhile, the makers have yet to decide on an Indian release date.
Zwigato had its global premiere in September at the 47th Toronto International Film Festival, followed by its Asian premiere in October at the 27th Busan International Film Festival. Sameer Nair’s Applause Entertainment and Nandita Das Initiatives collaborated on the film’s production.

In the upcoming Nandita Das film Zwigato, Kapil Sharma plays a delivery executive. Kapil discussed the film’s commercial prospects in a recent interview.
Kapil Sharma is known for his sense of humour. After years of being one of the funniest men on television, the stand-up comic turned talk show host has earned that reputation. However, in his upcoming film Zwigato, Kapil plays a solemn man, a far cry from his public persona. In a recent interview, Kapil explained why he does not consider making an indie film like that to be a risk because he has “nothing to lose.”
Kapil Sharma is the popular and successful host of The Kapil Sharma Show. He also regularly performs on tours in India and abroad, the most recent of which was for an upcoming Netflix special. Nandita Das’s Zwigato is not a commercial entertainer, and it casts Kapil in the role of a delivery person. Many people have questioned why the well-known comedian chose a ‘non-commercial’ independent film.
“I recently told my wife, if this film doesn’t work, I will not lose anything,” Kapil said in an interview with Rediff. But if it succeeds and becomes a hit, I will benefit greatly. People will say things like, ‘Kapil ne bahut accha kaam kiya ha’ (Kapil has done good work). It is critical that more people watch the film. My bread and butter are comedy shows. However, as a result of this, I was motivated to look for something else to do. Socha kitchen safe? Pange lete hain thode se (I thought the kitchen was safe, so let’s try some experiments). Were you afraid, someone asked? Why should I be afraid, I reasoned? What is the meaning of dukaan?
Kapil added that it was difficult for him to get into the skin of his character and adjust to the shoot schedule. “When we began filming in Bhubaneswar, Nandita set the call time at 6 a.m. We don’t sleep before 3 a.m. in Bombay. “I struggled a lot the first two days just to keep up with the shooting schedule,” he added.
Zwigato, in which Shahana Goswami also appears, was recently screened at the Toronto International Film Festival. The film is expected to be released in theatres in India later this year, but no official date has been announced.
