Kapil Sharma set to tie the knot with Ginni Chathrath

Popular Indian actor-comedian Kapil Sharma, who is all set to return to television with a brand new season of  ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’, will soon start another chapter of his life by getting married to his long-time-girlfriend, Ginni Chatrath. 

“My mother has been saying that I should get married for a long time. Suddenly I realised that ‘abhi age ho rahi hai’ (I am getting on in age). So, I thought what if she says ‘no’ and after one or two years, and no one agrees to get married to me,” Kapil, 37, told IANS. 

The wedding date is not fixed yet, but it will be a December wedding, Kapil confirmed. When asked about their honeymoon plans, Kapil said, “I think it will be tough (to take out time for honeymoon). Let's see.”

Kapil took a break from showbiz after a string of controversies but now he hopes to once again spread happiness and laughter in his fans’ lives. 

People have given a lot of love to me. They used to ask me, ‘When is your show coming back?’ and they asked the same question to the channel (Sony Entertainment Television) as well. And so, the channel told me, ‘Let’s make a new season’,” Kapil told IANS while promoting his prodcution venture, Punjabi film 'Son of Manjeet Singh' in Delhi. 

Kapil’s on-air fight with Sunil Grover had an adverse affect on his professional life. Recalling the incident, Kapil said, “I feel everyone fights someday or the other. We are public figures and that is why our fights make it to the papers. But I feel everyone has fought once in life -- be it within family, business or work space. Small-small things keep on happening. But since we are public figures, these things become news in our case.”

“It is a learning experience. I feel we learn till our last breath. Main ‘nalayak’ students mein se ek hun toh mein thodha late seekhta hun (I am one of the unintelligent students, so I am slow learner).”

Talking about his break, the actor said: “I gave ample amount of time to myself during the break. I am rejuvenated. Now I’m working on my health. I want to get fit now and be back on the small screen.”

“Health is wealth... People don’t just say it for the sake of it. It is genuinely true and I have realised that. I didn't give much importance to my health. There was no fixed time to eat for me. But now I will try to focus on my health while working,” he added.

“I hope to make people laugh and I hope for good things,” Kapil signed off.
