The much-loved comedy talk show The Great Indian Kapil Show is back with a bang! Season 3 premiered on 21st June 2025, and fans were in for a double treat. Not only did Bollywood superstar Salman Khan grace the first episode, but the return of Navjot Singh Sidhu also added an extra spark — and a whole lot of laughter!
Kapil Sharma Welcomes Sidhu Paaji with His Signature Wit
Kapil Sharma, known for his unmatched comic timing, didn’t waste a moment in pulling Sidhu Paaji’s leg. Right at the start, Kapil cheekily said, “I want to thank Netflix for giving us such a big budget that we could afford Sidhu Paaji this season!” The audience burst into laughter, and so did Sidhu, proving once again that humour runs strong on this show.
The Sidhu-Archana Equation: Fun, Fire, and Full-On Drama
Season 3 also brings back the classic Sidhu vs Archana banter. As Sidhu joined Archana Puran Singh on the judge’s panel, Kapil didn’t hold back. He teased Archana, saying she had been so nervous about Sidhu’s return that she went to astrologers for help. “Rahu aur Ketu ko toh sambhal lungi, lekin Sidhu ka koi upay batao,” Kapil joked, mimicking Archana.
Sidhu, always ready with a poetic reply, threw in a shayari about how Dehradun (Archana’s place) could never come between the dildaar dosti of two Amritsaris (Kapil and Sidhu). It was a light moment that reminded fans of the original magic from earlier seasons.
Salman Khan Adds Star Power and Sincerity
Amidst all the comedy and leg-pulling, Salman Khan brought charm and personal stories. He opened up about his journey, shared untold stories, and laughed along with the cast. His presence set the perfect mood for the season opener and fans loved seeing Salman in a candid, relaxed mood.
Jokes, Jabs, and Lots of Laughs
Kapil didn’t stop at just one or two jokes. He continued to roast Sidhu good-naturedly, saying the show had to take a six-month break just to prepare for Sidhu’s return! Sidhu laughed it off and fired back, “Be glad it was just six months—imagine what you’d do if it lasted nine!” Kapil instantly shot back, “I had my kids during the pandemic when the world was on a break. But you, Paaji, had yours during cricket matches!”
The entire exchange was full of good humour, nostalgic energy, and the unmissable chemistry between the original trio — Kapil, Sidhu, and Archana.
Conclusion: A Promising Start to a Power-Packed Season
With Season 3 kicking off on such a high note, it’s safe to say The Great Indian Kapil Show is back stronger and funnier than ever. The return of Sidhu has added a layer of old-school charm, while the presence of top celebrities like Salman Khan keeps the buzz alive. Kapil Sharma continues to deliver belly-aching laughter, proving once again why he remains India’s favourite comedy host.
