Archana Puran Singh, on a recent episode of The Kapil Sharma Show, said that when female actors perform in scenes where their character is getting harassed, they get “uncomfortable.” Archana was speaking when actors Raza Murad, Jimmy Sheirgill, Govind Namdev, Indraneil Sengupta, Sayaji Shinde and Abhimanyu Singh were guests on The Kapil Sharma Show.

Archana said, “Ladkiya toh uncomfortable hoti hi hain jab koi rough and tough zabardasti ka scene karna padta hai as an actor on screen (Girls do get uncomfortable when they have to film a harassment scene as an actor on screen).” As soon as she said this, Raza Murad reminded her that he had once shot one such a scene with her. He said, “Aisa ek zabardasti ka scene mera aapka tha (You and me had such a harassment scene).”

Kapil’s latest guests were on the show to promote their upcoming film Aazam, which is directed by Shravan Tiwari. During the show, actor Krushna Abhishek, who is part of the show’s cast also mentions his uncle, actor Govinda, with whom he has had rocky relationships.

While interacting with Govind Namdev, he said, “Acha hai aapka naam Govind hai, agar Govinda hota toh hum logon ki itni baat nahi hoti (Good that your name is Govind and not Govinda. Had it been Govinda, we would not have had a conversation).”
