Team India’s wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant and coach Gautam Gambhir was at their absolute best in the one-and-a-half-minute trailer released by Netflix for the next episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show.
Apart from Pant, Team India’s coach Gautam Gambhir, leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, and opening batter Abhishek Sharma were also present on the show.
Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW!In one of the segments, Pant was seen saying, “
Naam hai mere Pant, samajh mat lena mujhe Sant (My name is Pant, don’t take me for a sage)."
At the start of the video, show host Kapil Sharma asked coach Gambhir, “
Coach saab, permission hai? Aaj ladke masti kar sakte hain? (“Coach sir, do we have permission? Can the boys have fun today?)."
To which Gambhir replied, “
Mujhe inse permission leni padti hai. (I’m the one who has to seek permission from them.)"

During the promo, Kapil playfully asked Gambhir the million-dollar question: “Why are you always so serious?” To this, Gambhir responded with a smile, saying, “I stay serious so that others can smile. Someone has to take that role.”
Kapil then asked the cricketers which player complains the most in the dressing room. Abhishek Sharma said, “I have just completed a year, so I don’t know much. Paaji (Rishabh Pant) will tell you more.”
Pant, who was put on the spot, burst into laughter and said, “Saare galat kaam mujhse hi karvate hain(They make me do all the wrong stuff)."
“It is Shami (Mohammed) bhai,” Pant added.
Gambhir immediately chipped in and said, “
Yeh bolte hain, jija do saal se ghar nahi aaya hai (He keeps saying, ‘Brother-in-law hasn’t come home in the last two years)."
The show will be aired on Saturday.
