A report in Hindustan Times suggested that a joke hinting towards Akshay’s interview with PM Narendra Modi during the actor’s last visit made it to social media, even though the actor’s team had requested that the joke be cut from the episode. While the joke did not make it to the final episode, it was circulated on social media, which apparently upset the actor’s team.

“It was a breach of trust on the part of someone in Kapil’s team, and Akshay sought a clarification before he appears on the show again,” a source told HT.

However, a source told indianexpress.com that the teams of the two stars were working out the schedule. “The schedule of Bachchan Pandey and the shoot of The Kapil Sharma Show is not matching. The team has been working tirelessly to build a bank as Kapil has a prior shoot commitment towards the end of the month. This is the reason they might not be on the show. However, they are still working on the dates,” they said.

Bachchan Pandey is scheduled to release on March 18.
