Comparisons between Kapil's previous shows and the new one were drawn inevitably: "The Kapil Sharma Show was a great show and this boring," while some described Kapil's jokes and digs as "depressing". "Desperate attempt of Kapil to make people laugh. Haven't seen anything so depressing on tele in a while," tweeted a netizen while another one added: "Am I the only one who left the show in the middle?"

This is the first time Kapil Sharma appeared on television after the channel pulled the plug on The Kapil Sharma Show last year, which was a result of consistently dipping TRPs. It all started after the show host had a fall-out with former co-star Sunil Grover, who accused Kapil of physically assaulting and verbally abusing him. Just days ahead of the launch of the new show, the former co-stars had an angry exchange of words on Twitter - Sunil complained to never have been invited to Kapil's new show while the latter said his repeated calls to Sunil went unanswered.
Right before the debut episode of Kapil Sharma's new show, the host also trended a great deal for reports stating the shooting of the launch episode (with Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani) was cancelled. Kapil indeed has a reputation for having cancelled shoots for The Kapil Sharma Show, including episodes that were supposed to have guests like Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, Arjun Kapoor and Anil Kapoor. However, this time, this is how he dismissed the rumours:
Tiger was never supposed to shoot for our 2nd episode, so shoot cancel hone ka sawaal hi paida nahi hota.kuch to authenticity rakha karo yaar.Twitter kya ab explanation dene ke liye hi reh gya hai?Best wishes to my brother @iTIGERSHROFF for #baaghi2 see u soon bro.. lots of love
