Sumona Chakravarti Opens Up About Her Absence from "The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show"

Actor Sumona Chakravarti, known for her roles in popular comedy shows, has been a familiar face on television. However, her absence from the celebrity comedy talk show "The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show" has left fans wondering.
In a recent interview with PTI, Sumona shared her perspective on why she isn't part of the show's latest version, which is hosted by her frequent collaborator Kapil Sharma and streams on Netflix India.


Sumona has been associated with Kapil Sharma's shows since 2013, having featured on "Comedy Nights with Kapil" (2013-2016) and "The Kapil Sharma Show" on Sony TV (2016-23).
When asked about her absence from the current show, she candidly replied, "I don't have an answer to this. The show I was part of, which aired on another channel, ended last year in July. Since then, I've been on my own journey, doing my own things, networking, and meeting people."

Kapil Sharma's new venture, "The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show," is exclusively available on Netflix and features a talented ensemble cast, including Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Rajiv Thakur, and Archana Puran Singh.

Sumona expressed her gratitude for the love and messages from fans who miss seeing her on the show.
She shared, "I know fans have missed me. I've seen their messages. Everywhere I go, people tell me they miss seeing me on the show. That motivates me to explore new opportunities."

Interestingly, Sumona also reflected on her unexpected success in comedy.
She said, "Nobody expected me to do well in comedy, but I did it." Her versatility has been appreciated by viewers, whether it's her role in "Bade Achhe Lagte Hain" or her comedic performances.

As she gears up for the stunt reality show "Khatron Ke Khiladi 14," Sumona looks forward to trying something different in her career.
She teased, "This year, some exciting stuff will happen with fiction. I was busy with theatre, and now 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' is happening. It's all about exploring new horizons."

Sumona Chakravarti's journey continues, and her fans eagerly await her next venture in the entertainment industry.
