Archana admits to 'faking laughter' on 'The Kapil Sharma Show'
Renowned Indian actor Archana Puran Singh recently confessed to having "forced laughter" during her stint on The Kapil Sharma Show. She expressed concerns about her authenticity, revealing that she often found herself laughing at jokes that didn't amuse her. Despite these reservations, the actor is eagerly anticipating her new comedy venture alongside Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover, titled The Great Indian Kapil Show, set to premiere on Netflix.
Singh enthusiastic about her new comedy venture
Singh, a regular on The Kapil Sharma Show, expressed her excitement for her role in the upcoming comedy show The Great Indian Kapil Show. She described it as the "best job in the world," stating, "I am laughing all the way to the bank. I am having the best time...to watch one episode, one show, people crave to catch the event...and I am there watching it like a guest, every time." She sees this opportunity as a great privilege.
Addressing criticism over forced laughter
During a recent media interaction, she addressed criticism about her tendency to laugh at subpar jokes on The Kapil Sharma Show. She clarified that this no longer happens and explained that in the past if a joke didn't hit its mark, producers would use her laughter as a filler. This strategy backfired and led to criticism directed toward her, which she has since taken steps to rectify.
Singh's laughter now serves as constructive feedback
She also detailed how her laughter has evolved over time and now serves as constructive feedback for the show. Singh emphasized that she only laughs when she genuinely finds a joke amusing. The actor also revealed editors have stopped inserting her laughter during weak jokes in post-production.
