Kapil Dev will meet Kapil Sharma on "Comedy Nights With Kapil" very soon!
Indian cricket legend Kapil Dev is said to have been keen to be part of the comedy show ever since he saw Sunil Gavaskar and Virender Sehwag's appearance.
"Kapil (Sharma) is extremely thrilled because he has been a great cricket fan and Kapil Dev, especially, is one of his favourites," said a source close to the show.
The episode featuring Kapil Dev is yet to be scheduled for telecast.
Aired on Colors, the show also has former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu as a permanent entity, and he is seen laughing whole-heartedly at the jokes.
