The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 4: Kapil Sharma‘s comedy chat show The Great Indian Kapil Show kickstarted its fourth season on quite a glamorous note. And it has only gotten better every passing week. After Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday, the upcoming episode will feature Bhojpuri stars Pawan Singh, Manoj Tiwari, and Dinesh Lal Yadav. While the episode will include fun anecdotes and energetic dance performances, Dinesh will also be quizzed about his political career.

In the latest promo, Kapil Sharma asks Dinesh if he entered politics, getting inspired by Manoj Tiwari or Ravi Kishan. Kapil says, “Manoj Bhaiyyaa is in politics, after him Dinesh Bhaiyyaa and Pawan Bhaiyyaa followed. So Dinesh, you came into politics seeing Manoj Bhaiyyaa or Ravi Bhaiyyaa?” Dinesh responds, “Ravi Bhaiyyaa ko bhi inhone hi laayaa hai (He was the one who also got Ravi Kishan into politics).” Manoj Tiwari chimes in, “Ab yeh woh maane tab na. (But he should also agree to this).”

In the promo, Pawan Singh also reveals that if he has a bad day wearing a particular outfit, he never repeats that. He also adds that he stays away from black, indirectly hinting at Manoj Tiwari, who is sporting a black outfit. Dinesh Lal Yadav also shares that Manoj hires drivers whose names are similar to his fellow stars. Dinesh says, “The first driver Manoj Bhaiyyaa kept was Ravi, next was Pawan, and his current driver’s name is Dinesh.” Manoj defends this by saying it is a coincidence.

The stars are also seen grooving to the viral song “Lollipop” in the upcoming episode. Archana Puran Singh and Navjot Singh Sidhu also groove with the entire team.
