Kapil Sharma, a comedian, has recently made headlines for the shooting outside his cafe in Canada. Akshay Kumar mocked him about the event when he joined him for an episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, stating, “Itni aamdani hai ke wahan goliyan chali (earning is so much money that shots were fired there).”
Akshay recently appeared as a guest on Kapil Sharma`s farewell episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show. During the chat, Akshay also discussed Kapil`s career and growth, and joked about the firing episodes at Kap`s Cafe in Canada.
Akshay takes a fun dig at Kapil
It all began when Kapil stated that Akshay has appeared in over 150 films, saying, “Aap talented zyaada ho ke aapki zaruratein zyaada hain (Are you talented, or are your needs just too many)?”
Akshay retaliated by making a joke at Kapil. Akshay said, “Tu apna bata na, teen season Netflix pe kar chuka hai yeh. Usse pehle Sony pe tha, usse pehle Colors pe. Abhi do filmein kar raha hai. Isne apna restaurant khol liya aur itni aamdani hai ke waha goliyan bhi chali” (Tell me about yours. You have completed three seasons on Netflix. It had previously been on Sony and Colors. You are presently working on two films. You opened your own restaurant and made so much money that gunshots were fired there.)
Akshay`s dig made both the audience and the judges giggle. He then asked Kapil the same question, “Tu bata tu talanted zyaada hai yaa teri zaruratein zyaada hai (You tell me are you talented, or are your needs just too many)”. Kapil did not respond to the joke, but was observed giggling at it.
All about the Kaps cafe firing incident
The cafe, which was opened by the comedian in Canada on July 4, has already been attacked twice. The most recent shooting occurred early on August 7 in the Newton neighbourhood. “At approximately 4:40 am on August 7, 2025, SPS Frontline officers responded to a report of shots fired outside a business in the 8400 block of 120 Street,” Surrey Police said in a statement at the time.
The incident occurred after a similar gunshot at the same area on July 10, 2025. There were no casualties recorded in any case, but the repeated attempts prompted severe security concerns.
The 43-year-old comedian, best known for his hit television show The Kapil Sharma Show, established the cafe earlier this year as part of his international business efforts. Following the gunshot occurrences, the Mumbai Police Department provided protection for Kapil Sharma.
