Highlights
- Comedian Kapil Sharma will attend a charity event in aid of cancer, organised by cricketer Yuvraj Singh in London on Monday.
- Kapil had been rushing through the shooting of Comedy Nights With Kapil to create a bank of episodes so that he could leave on time to be part of the special cause.
- "Yuvraj is a cancer survivor. Unfortunately, my father couldn't survive the disease. When Yuvi told me about the auction event in London, I had to attend it even if it meant added pressure on my schedules," he said.
- Kapil has been shooting round the clock. What makes this trip special for the star comedian is that his mother will be accompanying him.
- "This is my mother's first trip outside India and very special for me. She had a choice of getting the visa done in Mumbai or Delhi. I asked her to join me in Mumbai, so we could spend some time together. Sadly, I've no time as I'm working longer hours to fulfil my commitments," he said.
- In the process of working overtime, Kapil has had a health setback. His blood pressure dropped and he was advised to slow down.
- "That, unfortunately, is not possible. I find myself working longer hours. Besides my show, which needs a major chunk of my time, I also shot for two ads recently," said Kapil, adding that shooting for ads is the equivalent of shooting for several episodes of Comedy Nights With Kapil together.
