The King of Comedy: Kapil Sharma's Journey from Laughter Seeker to Laughter Maker

Kapil Sharma has an interesting story both in terms of narration and jokes. It is less about his life than a tale about a funny young individual who began as a boy coming from Amritsar with visions and later became an Indian comedy emperor.

Inception: Laughter from Amritsar’s Very Heart

In the city of Amritsar, Punjab, Kapil Sharma was born in 1981. The family in which he was born was just an average one where comedy was not a pleasure but a regular thing. His father was a cop while his mother did household chores; life, however, was tough due to the citizen's poverty level at the time. This is what shaped him into becoming who we know today.

As a young boy, Kapil had a great talent for comedy.

The arts were his passion, but it was also an indication that he was considering a secure career path just in case things wouldn’t work out as planned.
