MUMBAI: One of the most popular comedy TV series, The Kapil Sharma Show never fails to entertain the audience with its hilarious episodes. Actress Sumona Chakravarti is an integral part of the show.
Sumona’s performance, comedy timing in the show and quirky chemistry with Kapil Sharma has been applauded by the viewers. However, when she went missing from the show for a few episodes and recently shared the poster of a new Bengali travel project, the fans and several media portals thought the actor has quit The Kapil Sharma Show after eight years. She opened up about the same to a leading entertainment portal.
Refuting the reports, the actress told India TV, “Let me firmly confirm that I haven’t quit The Kapil Sharma Show and don’t intend to do it either. The Shonar Bangla show is a short one month commitment that facilitates both my passions of travel and being a proud Bengali hence I undertook the same. Trust you will understand!”
Sumona has been roped in for a new travel show on Zee Entertainment’s lifestyle channel Zee Zest called Shonar Bengal. It will explore the rich state of Bengal and its lesser-known stories via a 10-part travelogue. Talking about the same, Sumona told Tribune that she got a chance to explore the state and unravel the stories that have been a part of her childhood, but from a distance. Sumona believes that being able to interact with people from diverse cultural backgrounds has been surreal and a great learning experience for her. "I feel extremely honoured to be a part of the show," she said. The actress even shared that when the team at Zee Zest reached out to her, she immediately thought this was something she would love to be a part of. The actress added, "I’ve always loved to travel, explore new places and cultures and what better way to do it than via a travel show and that too in my own state – Bengal."
