Meanwhile, ace-comedian Kapil Sharma is back with a bang after a much-needed hiatus as he kick-started the new year with 'The Kapil Sharma Show', that has made it to the top already as far as TRP's are concerned. The second season of the show opened with a TRP of 3.4 and raked in 3.2 over the weekend, with 'Super Dancer' following in. On the personal front, Kapil Sharma tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend Ginni Chatrath in Jalandhar on December 12, last year.
