Kapil Sharma Postpones US Tour to Support Rajiv Thakur’s Role in ‘IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack’

In a heartwarming display of friendship, comedian Kapil Sharma postponed his US tour to support actor Rajiv Thakur’s shooting schedule for the highly anticipated Netflix series IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack.

Rajiv Thakur, who plays the role of hijacker Ibrahim Akhtar, also known as Chief, in Anubhav Sinha’s IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack, was initially faced with a scheduling conflict.

According to Thakur, Sharma learned about the conflict and offered to adjust the tour dates to accommodate Thakur’s shooting schedule. “Kapil encouraged me to take up IC 814, telling me, ‘Tu series kar, hum show push kar denge’ (you do the series, we will push the show),” Thakur shared. Thanks to Sharma’s intervention, the comedy tour was rescheduled to July, enabling Thakur to honor both his commitments.

Thakur also noted that Sharma and their mutual friends were enthusiastic about the series, with Archana Puran Singh, another close friend, expressing her happiness over Thakur’s role in the show.

Thakur shared that Sharma watched the series late into the night after a shoot and personally contacted Anubhav Sinha, the show’s director, to convey his appreciation. “Kapil sounded so happy and proud,” Thakur remarked, reflecting on the supportive nature of his friendships in the industry.
