You won't believe who's the newest entrant in Kapil Sharma's gang!

Kapil Sharma is finally coming back to prime time television. After leaving audiences moist-eyed and walking out of the much famous Comedy Nights with Kapil, the comedian is now planning a gigantic return to the small screen. With The Kapil Sharma Show.

And there were strong reports that Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai actress Shilpa Shinde was coming back on TV with this show. Now, all such rumours can be put to rest. Shilpa has been issued a lifetime ban and she won't be allowed to take up any other TV projects. Instead, she will be replaced by someone else. 

And guess who's joined the formidable CNWK team for the new show? Bigg Boss 9 contestant Rochelle Maria Rao will be seen adding spice on the show which goes on air from April 23. Now, this is surprising given that Rochelle is a Colors talent and she's now all set to turn up the heat on Colors' rival channel's show. Also, Colors and Kapil too had a fallout and we're sure this move by Rochelle won't go unnoticed in the Colors boardroom. 

A bi-weekly show, this show will have celebrities participating as well, much like the CNWK format. But the difference is that while Comedy Nights was about Kapil's family and a few other characters, this one will have a backdrop of a neighbourhood with more than one family involved.
