Ali Asgar added that Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover's mid-air altercation was also one of the reasons behind his exit. "I continued with it for a year and then I decided to plan my exit. Around that time, the unfortunate incident on the flight from Australia happened (Kapil abused Sunil Grover and Chandan Prabhakar), which further fuelled the exit," he told TOI. In March this year, team The Kapil Sharma Show were flying to India from Australia, when Kapil, reportedly drunk, hit Sunil Grover with a shoe. Soon after the incident, Sunil Grover quit the show.
Of working again with Kapil Sharma, Ali Asgar told TOI, "Maine koi kasam nahi khayi uske saath nai kaam karne ki. He was the captain of the ship where I used to work. That project did not work out, that's it."
Last week, it was reported that Kapil Sharma's show, due to falling TRP rates, will go off air. However, later Kapil's co-star Kiku Sharda said that the reports are false. Meanwhile, he also clarified that Kapil couldn't shoot for some of the episodes as he was 'ill.' Several media outlets reported that Kapil Sharma was in depression. Weeks ago, Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma had to leave the show without shooting due to Kapil's deteriorating health condition and later team Mubarakan had to face the same. However, Kapil shot for an episode with Mubarakan cast last week.
