Controversies

edit

In 2016, Sharma tagged Indian prime minister Narendra Modi in a tweet and alleged that Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) took 5 Lakh rupees bribe from him for construction of his office. “I am paying 15 crores income tax from last five years and still I have to pay 5 lacs to bribe to BMC office for making my office Narendra Modi, Yeh hain aapke achhe din?", he tweeted. In response chief of BMC's vigilance department asked him the names of the people who took bribes and assured him to take stringent action against them. It was later revealed that Sharma himself was doing illegal activities involving work being done on his properties. BMC issued a stop work notice to him and asked him to stop illegal extensions work in his two bungalows, ground in Andheri and told him to demolish illegal work in the next 24 hours. On 4 August 2016, BMC demolished parts of the extensions and their officials alleged that Kapil Sharma made internal changes on his properties and office without legal permission from BMC.[3]

In 2018, Sharma did a show for the Pakistan Super League in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, angering right-wing groups in India who were hostile to the idea of a collaboration with their neighbouring country.[51] Right-wing politician and Maharashtrian party member Shiv Sena slammed Sharma and said, "Kapil Sharma is making a mockery of India's honour. He just wants to earn money and doesn't care about the country, we strongly condemn Sharma for performing during PSL", Sena said. The situation between India and its western neighburing nation has been especially bad for several years since the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attack, an unprecedented terrorist attack in which 168 people died and 238 were severely injured.[52][53]

In 2018, Kapil Sharma had an argument with journalist Vicky Lalwani of SpotboyE in a recorded telephone conversation, later leaked by Lalwani. Sharma used foul language and asked the journalist his reason for writing negative and biased articles about him (Sharma). After the conversation went viral on social media, Sharma filed a police complaint against Vicky Lalwani, along with his ex-managers Preeti Simoes and Neeti Simoes, for trying to extort INR 25 lakhs from him as well as alleging in a police complaint that both sisters used to take money from the people who arrived in Film City, Mumbai to see his show and Preeti-Neeti manufactured miss understandings between him and his fellow comedians of his show and arriving guests.[54] Simoes condemned all of these allegations as false and made-up stories. Preeti Simoes also claimed she had been Sharma's girlfriend for 8 years until his engagement.[40][55] She and her sister Neeti Simoes worked in Kapil Sharma's production or with him for eight years until 2017.[56] She claimed that trouble erupted between Preeti and Kapil after he announced his engagement with Ginni Chatrath in March 2017. Sharma also abused SpotboyE and its editor Vicky Lalwani through a series of tweets, which his employees tried to cover up by saying his account was hacked until Sharma later confessed that the abusive tweets were written by himself. On 8 April 2018, SpotboyE filed a counter police report against Sharma for intimidation, abuse and threats.[57]

Activism

edit

Sharma has been known for his efforts in promoting animal rights. He and the cast of Comedy Nights with Kapil appeared in a PETA campaign to promote the adoption of homeless cats and dogs.[58] In July 2014, he adopted a homeless dog, a retired police dog from Mumbai. He has also campaigned to save tortured elephants across the country.[59]

Sharma was nominated in 2014 for the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to spread awareness among people for cleanliness and other hygiene-related social issues.[60] For his contribution towards the mission through his show, he was invited to the Rashtrapati Bhavan by President Pranab Mukherjee in September 2015 to acknowledge his contribution.[61]
