Shahid Kapoor’s upcoming film “O Romeo”, also starring Tripti Dimri, Avinash Tiwari, and Nana Patekar, is all set to hit theatres this Friday. As part of the film’s promotions, the entire star cast recently appeared on “The Great Indian Kapil Show” Season 4, and the episode promises plenty of laughs and memorable moments.

Netflix and the official Instagram handle of Kapil Sharma’s show have shared a promo featuring Shahid and the team, where the cast is seen indulging in fun banter with the host.

Kapil’s Question, Avinash’s Answer—and Shahid’s Perfect Punchline

In the promo, Kapil Sharma jokingly teases Avinash Tiwari and says,
“You did Laila Majnu with Tripti, then Bulbbul, and now O Romeo. Are you chasing your career or chasing Tripti?”

Responding humorously, Avinash says,
“We’ve already matched three horoscopes. Hopefully, there will be five or six more in our lives.”
Tripti Dimri smiles and nods in agreement, adding to the playful vibe.

Shahid Kapoor Steals the Moment

Just as Avinash finishes his reply, Shahid Kapoor jumps in with a hilarious observation that leaves everyone laughing. He says,
“After this episode airs, there’s going to be one big question—why did O Romeo sit between Laila and Majnu? When I sat there, I thought, ‘I’m seated all wrong.’ Now I’ll have to deal with memes for sure. But what can I do? I’ve come dressed as O Romeo, while these two have been Laila and Majnu for years!”

Kapil Sharma immediately adds to the joke, teasing Avinash by saying, “This guy plans everything.”

Who All Appeared on the Show?

Along with Shahid Kapoor, Tripti Dimri, and Avinash Tiwari, director Vishal Bhardwaj also appeared on the show. Veteran actress Farida Jalal, who plays an important role in the film, joined the episode as well.
