However, the PinkVilla published statement from the team of The Kapil Sharma Show. The programme’s creative director Preeti Simoes claimed, “We have a fixed team of writers and Abhishek isn’t part of it. He was just a freelancer like many others who submit their scripts. We have hardly used his work. He isn’t associated with the production house.”
