Navjot Singh Sindhu has been thrown out of The Kapil Sharma Show

Navjot Singh Sidhu attracted the ire of the public after his inappropriate remarks following the Pulwama terror attack. Apparently, he seemed to support Pakistan in his statement. Navjot had mentioned to the press yesterday (February 15), “For a handful of people, can you blame the entire nation and can you blame an individual?” He further added, “It (the attack) is a cowardly act and I condemn it firmly. Violence is always condemnable and those who did it must be punished.” The first line angered the whole nation. And Twitterati demanded that Sidhu be  boycotted. In fact, they even demanded his ouster from The Kapil Sharma Show. Or else threatened to boycott the comedy show entirely.

On Twitter, hashtags like #BoycottSidhu, #BoycottKapilSharmaShow and #BoycottSonyTV started trending. With so much public wrath, looks like pressure was on the channel. And Navjot Singh Sidhu is out of the show. Yes, Sony TV has decided to fire Navjot Singh Sidhu. As our source revealed to us exclusively, “The Pulwama attack was a serious and grave incident. The channel feels Navjot Singh Sidhu’s remarks were not in line with their stand. Hence, they have decided to let him go. Sony TV does not want any more controversy around The Kapil Sharma Show. Looking at the public outcry, they thought this would be the best solution.” An official statement is expected from the channel pretty soon.

We even reached out to Sony TV, however, they are yet to revert to our query. Amidst all this, there is one more thing that comes to our mind. With the Lok Sabha Elections coming up, Navjot Singh Sidhu will be campaigning for the Indian National Congress. The cricketer-turned-politician would have to leave the show anyway! So, it could likely have been an amicable and joint decision too. Anyway, what is your take on Navjot Singh Sidhu’s ouster from The Kapil Sharma Show?
