Actor Bhumika Chawla spoke about being snubbed from ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ when fellow cast members of ‘Kisi Ka Bhai, Kisi Ki Jaan’ were invited.
The ‘Tere Naam’ debutante was recently seated with RJ Siddharth Kannan for a tell-all on his digital show when she spoke about being oblivious to the promotional strategy of her latest release, including the cast’s outing on ‘TKSS’. She said that she had no idea when the episode was shot.

“They must have had some strategy,” she told Kannan. “I felt bad for one second then I thought Venkatesh [Daggubati] sir wasn’t there. We are a couple in the film. I did my calculation. Since he wasn’t called, what would I say alone [in the show]?” she reasoned her absence.
“Those three couples were called, they are youngsters and their equation is different. So, I said ‘thik hai (it’s okay)’,” she added about the other couples being a part of the show.
Chawla further explained, “God has blessed me with one thing: I feel bad for one second and then I don’t look back. Because I know The Kapil Sharma Show is not getting me another film. Mujhe PR karna hai toh mai bhi kar sakti hu but PR ke bawajoot agar guaranteed mujhe film milegi toh mai aaj Kapil Sharma ko call karke bolungi call me. Guaranteed mujhe aap agle din film la k do (I can do PR activities too but if the show can promise me a film the next day, I can call Kapil Sharma and ask him to call me).”

She also addressed not being a part of many promotional activities of the film. “I have so much of an ego that I don’t go around people or even ask them,” the actor said.
Chawla essayed the sister-in-law of Bhagya [Pooja Hegde] – the love interest of Bhaijaan [Salman Khan] – in the film. Besides ‘KKBKKJ’, she was also seen in double roles in the Tamil-language thriller ‘Kannai Nambathey’ last year.
