After inviting actors like SRK and Salman Khan to his TV show ‘Comedy nights with Kapil’, stand-up comedian Kapil Sharma is all set to make his own debut as an actor with thriller-comedy ‘Bank-Chor’.
Kapil Sharma has signed a three-film contract and talent management deal with Yash Raj Films. The comedian said he has already started working on the nuances of his character which would see him in a different avatar.
“I’ve always loved and watched thrillers and this is a thriller comedy so even better. I’ve done serious theatre for years before comedy. Finally with YRF’s vision, I’ll get to do this again after a 12-year break and this script has equal
scope of comedy,” he added.
‘Bank-Chor’ is directed by Bumpy and produced by Ashish Patil and goes on the floors in April this year.
“Kapil is one of the most exciting names in entertainment right now. We’re thrilled to welcome him into the YRF jungle!,” said Patil, who is Business and Creative Head, Youth Films at Yash Raj Films.
