The first episode of the latest season of the show aired on December 29. Kapil Sharma, as usual, enthralled the viewers with his one-liners and situational comedy along with his new team. Yes, there have been a few changes in the core team of Kapil’s show.

In this season, we have Bharti Singh andĀ Krushna Abhishek joining the team of the show. The first episode of the show was graced by none other than the star castĀ of ‘Simmba’ i.e Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan along with director Rohit Shetty. While nothing much has been changed in the new season of the show, there’s one thing that has taken a hit this time.

Yes, as per recent reports, it is being said that unlike the first season, Kapil is being paid much less than what he was previously. Reportedly, earlier Kapil used to charge about Rs 60-80 lakhs per episode. But now, he is being apparently paid only Rs. 15 lakh per episode.Ā If reports are anything to go by, then even Bharti Singh and Krushna Abhishek are being paid about Rs 10 to 12 lakhs for each episode.

We wonder what made Kapil slash his fees so much? Is it because of the rough patch he has been going through professionally off late?

The new season ofĀ ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ is being produced by Kapil Sharma himself in collaboration with Salman Khan.
