While the current lot of comedians are fighting among themselves, Star Plus is bringing new talent in the industry as it is prepping up for the fifth season of The Great Indian Laughter Challenge, one of the firsts and the most successful comedy shows on Indian television ¨C that made the career of many comedians including Kapil Sharma, Sudesh Lehri and Bharti Singh among others.
But this time around, it seems, there are going to be a lot of changes. Instead of Navjot Singh Sidhu and Shekhar Suman, who have judged the previous seasons, this time Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is on board as the judge. The actor who has often made us roll on the floor laughing with his amusing antics on chat shows and films, will judge the comic timings of others, this time.
What¡¯s more? This time there are going to be mentors as well, who will apparently help the budding comedians in improving their performances. And for that ¨C internet sensation Make-up didi AKA Mallika Dua and Sakht Launda AKA Zakir Khan have been roped in.
According to a Spotboye.com report, Zakir and Mallika have given their nod of consent and they are finalised in the role. However, there are going to be three mentors, and so, the hunt for the third one is on.
Akshay, Zakir and Mallika on one stage! It is going to be too much fun, isn¡¯t it?
