Akshay Kumar is all set to bring the Great Indian Laughter Challenge to the small screen. The show is making a comeback but this time the judges are different. Earlier Navjot Singh Sidhu and Shekhar Suman judged the show but this time Akshay will be seen stepping into their shoes. Releasing the first promo on Twitter, Akshay asked people to send their entries.
The 30-second-long clip showed incidents when people did not understand the essence of comic timing. Towards the end, Akshay explained why comic timing is important and invited everyone who thinks they are good enough to participate in the show. The show will be aired on Star Plus.
By roping in Akshay Kumar for the show, the channel has struck bull’s eye. Given Akshay’s immense popularity around the nation and abroad, this will ensure amazing TRPs of the show. The time slot of this show is yet not revealed but chances are it would be a weekend show. With Akshay coming on the small screen, other comedy shows including The Kapil Sharma Show, would be given stiff competition. The probability of Akshay going on Kapil Sharma’s show after The Great Indian Laughter Challenge goes on air seem dim as of now.

The Great Indian Laughter Challenge has given the country few of the most celebrated comedians. From Raju Srivastava to Sunil Pal, Ehsaan Qureshi to Kapil Sharma, Sudesh Lehri to Rajiv Thakur, all these comedians started their journey from this show. Definitely, the return of this show will make all aspiring comedians happy.
As far as Akshay Kumar’s fans are concerned, they would be happy to see the star crack jokes on reality TV. His sense of humour is amazing and we have seen it in his movies like Singh Is King, Welcome and Housefull. Getting to experience in a format of reality TV is obviously amazing.
