'Wasn't Expecting This From Kapil Sharma', Comedian's Acting In 'Zwigato' Is Winning Praises
Kapil Sharma is winning praises for his acting skills in Zwigato trailer, a film by Nandita Das about life of food delivery boys during and after pandemic. The movie premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival recently.
He came to Mumbai to become a singer but ended up becoming one of the most successful stand-up comedians of India. He runs a show that breaks TRP charts and now Kapil Sharma is all set to accomplish his acting dream as well.
While he made his debut in Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon with a full-fledged role, not many people appreciated his acting skills. Even his second movie titled Firangi got a dull response. However, with the trailer of his next movie, he is amassing praises from one and all.
This time, the comedian has teamed up with Nandita Das, who is known for her thought-provoking and sensitive films such as Manto and Firaq. She has given Kapil Sharma, a role nobody thought would fit him. But the man has proved his mettle. So much so, that everyone is in awe of his acting skills.
Good to know that @KapilSharmaK9 starrer #Zwigato, which is directed by @nanditadas with @ApplauseSocial backing it up is making waves at its world premiere at #TIFF #Toronto

The movie is titled Zwigato, which is about an ex-floor manager who loses his job during the pandemic and starts to work as a food delivery rider. The film showcases what struggles and troubles a delivery boy was to go through - a job that perhaps doesn't get as much empathy as it should.
Kapil Sharma, in the movie, plays the role of the delivery boy. Without further ado, watch the Zwigato trailer below, if you haven't already.
Fans are in awe of Kapil Sharma's acting skills. Not just that, they are also lauding Nandita Das for choosing this as the subject of the movie, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival recently. The movie also stars Shahana Goswami as his wife. Here's what everyone is saying.

Even in the comments section of YouTube, people are singing praises for them both. Here's what they wrote.
Comparing him to international celebrities, a fan wrote, "It's always heart warming to see a comedic actor portraying a serious role. Whether it's Jason Bateman in 'Ozark' or Adam Scott in 'Severance'. They always come on top with their performance. And Kapil Sharma is definitely on the right track with this one. All the best Bro."
As another fan showered praises, he wrote, "This movie will definitely change our prospective towards delivery boys! Kapil Sharma gave goosebumps in this character.."
Another fan applauded his choice of film and said, "Kudos! Glad Kapil didn't get sucked into commercial roller coasters running behind openings. He's actually a part of a film that needs to be made".
