Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is upset that a clip from comedian Kapil Sharma\u2019s show was allegedly leaked on the internet, despite his request for it to be removed.
Kumar and Sharma appear to be at odds, and the promotion of Sajid Nadiadwala\u2019s upcoming Kumar-starrer \u2018Bachchan Pandey\u2019, which is set for a Holi release on March 18, appears to have been caught in the middle, as per a report by HIndustan Times. According to sources, it all began when Kumar appeared on Sharma\u2019s show \u2018The Kapil Sharma Show\u2019 recently. The comedian inquired about an interview he had with a \u201cfamous personality\u201d in which Kumar inquired about his favourite way to eat mangoes. He was allegedly referring to an interview the actor had with Prime Minister Modi a few years ago. The ensuing squabble was caused by a clip of this exchange between the two.
\u201cAkshay took all of Kapil\u2019s jokes head-on but the dig on the PM interview seemed to mock the dignity of such a high office. So Akshay requested the channel to not air that question.
It is a right of the guests to make such a request as the show is not live. The channel agreed, but the said scene was leaked on the internet soon after,\u201d says the source.
It adds, \u201cIt was a breach of trust on the part of someone in Kapil\u2019s team, and Akshay sought a clarification before he appears on the show again.\u201d
The shoot of the episode has been postponed for the time being due to the lack of a response from Sharma. \u201cI hope all between Akshay and Kapil gets sorted out soon, or else the film\u2019s promotion will suffer, and fans of their banter will continue to miss out on the fun,\u201d the source adds.
The cast of \u2018Bachchan Pandey\u2019, directed by Farhad Samji includes actresses Kriti Sanon and Jacqueline Fernandez alongwith Kumar. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
