Kapil Sharma reveals Aamir Khan declined his TGIKS invite, saying he had already shared everything in a marathon interview with Saurabh Dwivedi.
In the latest episode of Netflix's The Great Indian Kapil Show, host Kapil Sharma welcomed a unique set of guests—not actors, but digital trailblazers who've reshaped how India consumes interviews. The episode featured YouTubers and journalists Sandesh Bhatia, Kamya Jani, Raj Shamani, and The Lallantop's Editor-in-Chief Saurabh Dwivedi. What unfolded was a hilarious and insightful conversation about modern journalism—and a surprising revelation about Aamir Khan.
Taking a dig at Saurabh Dwivedi's famously long interviews, Kapil joked, 'You did an episode with Aamir Khan that was five and a half hours long. I am yet to watch it. I'll watch it during my summer vacations. Inhone interview nahi liya, he wrung him dry. Aapko nahi laga kurta aur chappal hi bachi thi, vo bhi le lete hain?"
To this, Saurabh replied thoughtfully, 'Aamir is such an interesting personality. He always has so much to share. And that holds true for anyone who has struggled in life and worked across different fields. Mere ustaad ji, meri patni, she always says that if only you care to listen, everybody has a story to share."
Amid the laughter, Kapil made a candid confession: 'I called Aamir Bhai to invite him here for Sitaare Zameen Par. He said, 'Nahi, maine saara hi unko de aaya hu, unse le liya karo aage se.'" The host hinted that Aamir believed he had already said everything he needed to in his exhaustive chat with Saurabh.
Kapil didn't stop there. He also praised Saurabh's method of interviewing, noting how he disarms even the most media-trained guests: 'Yeh banda ek sawaal poochta hai aur aankhon mein aankhon daal ke dekhta hai jab tak jawab nahi milta."
The episode stood out for its humorous tone and honest insights into how new-age journalists are shaping celebrity narratives outside the confines of mainstream talk shows.
Meanwhile, The Great Indian Kapil Show is gearing up for its next big episode featuring politician Raghav Chadha and actor-wife Parineeti Chopra. With Kapil Sharma at the helm, fans can expect more laughs, revelations, and maybe even another moment that gets 'wrung dry"—kurta and chappal included.
