“Bade Acche Lagte hai was my big break. Later, I was approached to be Kapil’s partner in Comedy Circus. I had not seen the show, I had done fiction but not hardcore comedy that too with a stand-up comedian. I thought I’d give it a try and did a season with him. It was an unconventional pairing and it worked, the judges – Archana Puran Singh and Sohail Khan — told me at the time how Kapil’s partners either left him mid-way or got fired, no one stuck around. I was the first one who stuck through the years. For The Kapil Sharma Show, the mock shoot was done with somebody else, then he asked them to bring me, and we stuck together even when the channels, networks, and name changed. So, I went from Ram Kapoor’s sister to Kapil Sharma’s wife,” Sumona shared.
