Kapil Sharma is a force to reckon with. After owning the television space with his weekly talk show, The Kapil Sharma Show , the talented comedian made his way to the OTT space. He marked his debut with the premiere of his Netflix special titled Kapil Sharma: I’m Not Done Yet. The hour-long special saw the actor-comedian engross the audiences with some shocking anecdotes from his life, jokes about politics and Bollywood, and some really heart-warming moments.
The Netflix special was a hit, with the internet appreciating Sharma for talking about topics that are difficult to talk about, like depression and alcoholism. He also touched upon politics and the film industry in his way, and it kept viewers laughing until the end. One of the biggest takeaways was how the show’s treatment was different from that of his talk show. Fans felt the special was more personal. Many appreciated the fact that the comedian found the courage to talk about his struggles.
He touched upon his experiences with therapy and said, “We always believe that depression is something that happens outside (abroad). It doesn’t happen here.” This became one of the many highlights of the show with Twitteratis raving about him on the internet.
Here’s What People Had To Say:
It’s so heartening to see India’s top comedian who caters to universal audience talking about mental health…
Also, the bit about his father was extremely emotional…
Kudos for the political stuff
And that song was real sweet@KapilSharmaK9 #KapilSharmaImNotDoneYet

I actually feel proud and brave that #KapilSharma spoke about his depression and mental health condition during a rough patch in life. Takes so much courage to address this that too on such a major platform. More power to him. #KapilSharmaImNotDoneYet

Kapil Sharma Netflix Special was low on laughter, high on Storytelling.. rather an honest confession spree. Unlike his TV show wherein misandry, fat shaming, misogyny, unabashedly insulting the audience and uncultured remarks are comedy.#KapilSharmaImNotDoneYet #Netflix pic.twitter.com/OQY8UjnqJp
