Yesterday was Kapil Sharma’s birthday. On this occasion, Kapil’s close friend Vikram Grover shares many interesting stories about him.
In his shows, Kapil Sharma has always highlighted his theater days. Throughout his college years, Kapil has been involved with Amritsar’s theater company.
In those days, Kapil’s acting skills were evaluated by the theater group’s director, Vikram Grover. Time passed, and Kapil and Vikram became close friends as well.
Today, Vikram is one of Kapil’s buddies who does not miss him even if he calls him at 2:00 in the morning. Vikram recounts some fascinating memories from Kapil’s theater days.
Kapil Became ‘Kinnar’ in The First Stage Show
During an exclusive interview with Aaj Tak., Vikram reveals, “After graduating from college, I joined a theater group.” I am the new theater director of Hindu College in Amritsar. There, Kapil met for the first time.
He was here for an audition. I concluded after speaking with him that he is capable of amazing feats. Even if I had asked him where he was, he would have responded, “I am a freshman, sir.” This individual has experienced a great deal of poverty.
He has several life experiences. He was added to the team. In her debut performance, “Brhannala,” she portrayed the major role. When he began his act, I was stunned. A youth festival was occurring. In addition to acting, he was a member of a singing ensemble.
I informed him that he must leave the musical group because the situation requires much time. No, he answered, I cannot stop singing because it is my passion. Since he was performing so well, I permitted him. He was the winner of that play.
8 People Were Fed Food by Lying Like This
Vikram continues, ‘After performing in theater in Amritsar, I attended college in Jalandhar. There was a demand for Kapil. At my urging, Kapil enrolled in the institution. Kapil and I continued our series of theater performances at the national level in colleges in various places.
There is an amusing anecdote: I had two groups of pupils, one of the girls and the other of the boys, who each performed a play. Which my group’s female members had won. At the national level, we only accept groups who have won at the zone level.
Soon Kapil began to insist that I also attend the National. I ask all the women, where will you fit in? On her urging, I paired Kapil with these eight women. That piece was titled Iti, and she played solely with female actors.
While transporting a group of girls to Allahabad, he remarked, “I also want to see the globe; I want to go to Allahabad.” By juggling, we made it fit there as well. There is another anecdote about a performance at BHU.
Forty individuals had reached us, but only 32 college students received lunch tickets in the canteen. Eight of us would have been hungry, so he walked to the canteen counter and announced that we were from ‘Jai-Jayakar University in Uttarakhand. This individual fed eight of us by assuming the identity of a fictitious college.

When the Gathering Was Looted by Singing an English Song
In the show, Kapil Sharma may make light of his impeccable English, but did you know he received an award in college for singing an English song? Yes, very few people are aware of this, but Kapil sang many English songs on stage during his college years, as stated by Vikram.
In those days, he earned a reward for singing a popular song in English. I cannot recall the words to the song, but by singing it, she stole the show at the party.
Helped Me by Giving me a Check for Ten Lakh Rupees
Vikram states on friendship, Kapil has saved his buddies. From his college days, Kapil always travels with a group of 8 to 9 individuals. Now that he is so busy, we begin to feel apprehensive. Yet as soon as he sees us, he abandons his task to engage in idle chatter with us.
Thus, we also hesitate. Even if one of us phones him at 2:00 a.m., he will not miss him because of how close we have grown. He has provided me with financial help. Today it will be 2013; I was experiencing financial difficulties.
I was sitting dejectedly at home and have no idea how he found out about me. After writing a cheque for ten lakh rupees and handing it to me, he instructed me to keep it and not return it. I do not deny the fact that Kapil has played a significant role in my current way of life.
