A new promo is going viral on the internet showing Sidhu sitting in place of Archana, the guest judge's chair, leaving the veteran actress worried. The video shows Archana nervously asking Kapil about it when the latter jokes about Sunil Grover once again taking on Sidhu's appearance. However, he clarifies their doubt and reveals he is the real deal.

It seems Sidhu is not back as the judge but is one of the guests because the video shows Harbhajan Singh, his wife Geeta Basra and Sidhu's wife gracing the couch of the show. Not just this, Sunil actually mimics Sidhu wearing a matching outfit as Sidhu.

Why did Navjot Singh Sidhu leave the comedy show?

Sidhu had to leave the show in 2019 due to backlash following his comments on the Pulwama attack in February 2019. He stated, "It (the terror attack) is a cowardly and dastardly act and I condemn it firmly. Violence is always condemnable and those who did it must be punished." He followed up by saying, "For a handful of people, can you blame the entire nation and can you blame an individual?"

His comments didn't go down well with the people and flooded the X demanding a ban on The Kapil Sharma Show and a removal of Sidhu from the show. Following heavy backlash, Archana replaced him as a permanent guest.
