Bhagwant Mann, the new Chief Minister of Punjab, began his career as a comedian and satirist before entering politics. He became well-known after competing in the Great Indian Laughter Challenge, which was judged by Navjot Singh Sidhu and Shekhar Suman. Surprisingly, Kapil Sharma won the third season of the same stand-up comedy show.

Kapil Sharma, TV’s ‘comedy king,’ who is known for his great sense of humour and impeccable comic timing, was recently trolled for praising Punjab’s new chief minister, Bhagwant Mann.

On the occasion of Shaheedi Diwas, Bhagwant Mann shared a video in which he discussed the establishment of an anti-corruption helpline. When he shared the video, he wrote, “On the occasion of Shaheedi Diwas, we are launching an anti-corruption helpline. If someone asks you for a bribe, send me its audio/video recording on 9501200200. We will take strict action against the corrupt. Corruption free Punjab will be a true tribute to our freedom fighters”

Kapil Sharma praised the new Punjab Chief Minister for this initiative, quoting his tweet and writing, “So proud of you paji,” with a hug, heart, and applause emojis. A troll, on the other hand, targeted the Firangi actor for his praise and tweeted, “हरभजन की तरह राज्यसभा के टिकट के लिए मक्खन लगा रहे हो क्या । (Are you also wooing him for a Rajya Sabha seat, as Harbhajan did?)”

If you want, I can apply for a job on your behalf).
