Colors smiles as comic artist Kapil Sharma and Yash Raj Films terminate 3-movie contract

MUMBAI: Confirming his commitment to the popular television show ‘Comedy Nights with Kapil’, comic artist Kapil Sharma has decided not to pursue his movie career at this stage.
Sharma and Yash Raj Films (YRF) said Thursday they have mutually agreed to terminate their three-film contract signed in February this year.
Television viewers will thus rest assured that ‘Comedy Nights with Kapil’ will go on. Recently, Sharma had pasted on his Facebook page and Twitter handle that the show would take a break in September, implying that he would take up his Bollywood assignments. Sharma was to act in three movies under the banner of Y-Films, YRF’s youth division.
Following the deal with YRF, Sharma wanted to convert his bi-weekly top rated show ‘Comedy Nights With Kapil’ into a weekly. Colors was not in agreement with this.
“Kapil is not going anywhere and the show will go on,” a source in Colors said.
The snapping of the deal with YRF means that ‘Bank Chor’, the first of the three films, would go on floors without Sharma.
Commenting on the termination of the deal, YRF business and creative head – Youth Films, Talent Management and Brand Partnerships Ashish Patil said: “We will look forward to working together in future when the time is right.” Colors smiles as comic artist Kapil Sharma and Yash Raj Films terminate 3-movie contract | TelevisionPost.com

OMG! Kapil Sharma out of YRF's project!

Oh dear! One may really feel disappointed to
hear this. But latest reports say that the
popular comedian Kapil Sharma is out of Yash
Raj Films’ upcoming comedy caper, ‘Bank
Chor’. A statement from the banner confirming
this latest development read thus: "YRF and
Kapil Sharma have decided to part ways
mutually. Y Films’ "Bank Chor" will now go on
floor without him."
While Ashish Patil, Business & Creative Head,
Youth Films, Talent Management & Brand
Partnerships at Yash Raj Films said, "We will
look forward to working together in future
when the time is right."
Although the exact reason behind this is not
yet known, this surely comes as a very bad
news for the fans of Kapil Sharma, who has
become a household name as "Bittoo" from
his TV show ‘Comedy Nights With Kapil’. On
another note, does that mean the show will
continue now? For, earlier news had been out
that CNWK will come to an end since Kapil will
take a break from his comedy show for few
months until he finishes his movie
commitment.
Directed by Bumpy and produced by Ashish
Patil, ‘Bank-Chor’ is a comic-caper, that tells
the story of 3 morons trying to rob a bank
who pick the worst day possible when
everything that can go wrong, goes wrong and
how they’re inadvertently caught in the
crossfire of cops, industrialists and corrupt
netas. OMG! Kapil Sharma out of YRF's project! - Bollywood Movie News
