Kapil Sharma previously did The Great Indian Laughter Challenge in 2007 and Comedy Circus and also won six seasons of the show with his amazing talent. So he wanted to bring all experiences he has together in this show. they asked him how long will be the show and he gave them the breakdown but after the standup, gags , interviews of the celebs, still five minutes were left but when the show was shot, it went up to 120 minutes. They wanted just 70 minutes of content,” Kapil said.
