After His Comment On Pulwama Attack, Navjot Singh Sidhu Gets Sacked From The Kapil Sharma Show

Just yesterday, #BoycottSidhu was trending on Twitter, and looks like he has indeed been sacked from The Kapil Sharma Show.

While the entire nation condemned the Pulwama terror attacks, Navjot Singh Sidhu said that it was not proper to blame the entire country (Pakistan) for a “a handful of people.”

“For a handful of people, can you blame the entire nation and can you blame an individual?,” he had said adding, “It (the attack) is a cowardly act and I condemn it firmly. Violence is always condemnable and those who did it must be punished.”

His comments had left people fuming, and soon after hashtags #BoycottSidhu, #BoycottKapilSharmaShow and #BoycottSonyTV started to trend on Twitter.

Now, according to a report on Times Now, the channel has indeed sacked Navjot Singh Sidhu.

“The channel has told the production house to sack Sidhu. It’s not a temporary thing. They are going to get him out. In fact, even in the past, during the MeToo movement, when there were allegations against Anu Malik, the channel took a stand. The channel has shot a couple of episodes with Archana Puran Singh and most probably, she will be the one replacing Sidhu,” a source told the publication.
