Kapil Sharma vs. The Massage Chair
Comedian-turned-actor Kapil Sharma recently delighted fans with an unexpected video from one of his mall visits:
- Setting: Kapil approaches a coin-operated massage chair.
- The Exchange:
- Kapil: “I don’t have money. Can I sit for two minutes… only two minutes?”
- Chair (voice prompt): “Please insert coins.”
- Kapil (pleading): “Behen ban ke please.”
- Final straw: “Teri shaadi na ho!”
- Outcome: Chair remains unmoved; Kapil walks off in mock indignation.
This lighthearted moment showcases Kapil’s trademark self-deprecating humor and ability to turn everyday frustrations into comedy gold—one reason he remains one of India’s most beloved entertainers.
