Fans tuning into The Great Indian Kapil Show (TGIKS) might’ve noticed one big name missing from the celebrity guest list: Aamir Khan. As the promotional buzz around his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par builds, many wondered why Mr. Perfectionist didn’t show up on Kapil Sharma’s hit Netflix show.
Well, Kapil has finally given us an answer and in true Kapil fashion, it’s both hilarious and oddly believable.
The Spoiler That Ruined the Episode
In a casual moment behind the scenes, Kapil shared the reason with his usual blend of wit and honesty:
“Aamir sir didn’t come because I told him the whole story of the film in advance!”
Turns out, Kapil and Aamir had an earlier conversation where the comedian, a fan of storytelling himself, ended up enthusiastically revealing major plot points of Sitaare Zameen Par. By the time the conversation ended, Aamir apparently felt like there wasn’t much left to talk about on the show!
Aamir Khan Being… Aamir Khan
It might sound like a joke, but anyone who knows Aamir Khan’s approach to promotions can imagine this happening. He’s famously private, deeply involved in the integrity of his projects, and cautious about overexposure. If the heart of the film had already been shared in private, maybe he truly felt the need for mystery was gone.
Kapil, of course, delivered the whole anecdote with a laugh, and fans loved it.
Fans Are Loving the Honesty
Once this revelation hit the internet, fans couldn’t help but giggle at the irony.
Comments poured in:
“Kapil bhai is the sweetest spoiler ever”
“Aamir sir: Mission spoilers abort!”
“Now we really want to see them together on screen!”
It’s this kind of behind-the-scenes banter that makes TGIKS feel more personal than a polished space where stars let their guard down and just be themselves.
Still Hoping for Aamir on the Couch
While Aamir’s absence was a little disappointing for fans, Kapil left the door open. He’s hopeful that the actor might drop in for a chat someday as long as he promises not to spoil the next script.
Till then, TGIKS continues to be a laughing riot every week, and honestly, this moment? It’s exactly why we keep coming back.
