Is Daur Mein Kuch Naya Hai!

Comedy Circus the Hindi Comedy show has always been in a league of its own. Being an avid watcher of the Comedy series, one has to confess that the show has always lived up to its expectations of being a laugh-riot. Over a period of time various stand-up comedians have entertained us with their rib-tickling comedy in this reality based comedy show.
However, this season through “Comedy Circus Ka Naya Daur” the show  has once again managed to pep up our weekends. So one may ask what’s so “Naya” about Comedy Circus Ka Naya Daur?
For starters, the show’s concept is extremely appealing. One gets to see an electric mix of fresh new faces across the country and celebrities being mentored by none other than some of the Comedy stalwarts, Krushna, Kapil and Bharati who have been entertainers in the past. To add on to this, the celebrity judge is none other than the Comedy King, Govinda, who’s unmatched comic timing adds to the entertainment quotient.
Judging by what one saw in the the first episode last weekend, one has to confess that it was a complete paisa vasool. The show with an inimitable idea hosted by Reshmi Ghosh and with judges such as Govinda, Sohail Khan &  Archana Puran Singh (or should one say Purani Singh considering she has been a part of the show since the past 4 years) is sure to be a hit with the audiences.
This time Kapil teams up with Ankita Lokhande to mentor  RJ Mantra and Vishakha , Bharati with Siddharth Jadhav to mentor Mahi Vij with Suri , Krushna with Sudesh to mentor Priya Raina and you are in for the next 1 hour of splendid display of humor.
However, one has to admit that the feat that stood out was the one by Bharati & Siddharth. She once again manages to steal the show with sheer brilliance in the act where she mis-identifies Siddharth Kalia as Siddharth Mallya and tries to convince him to employ her as an air-hostess for his airlines by showing him her personal calendar.  She is also ready to go to the extent of changing her name to Bharati Padukone. Couldn’t get better than this, could it?
And who could forget Krushna’s memorable introduction of the judges and the host. This man is certainly a class apart. Hope to see more of the magical pair of Krushna – Sudesh in future.

Going by the response generated by Comedy Circus Ka Naya Daur last weekend, the expectations will be sky high this time around.  One can only hope that the show adds double mazaa to our weekends.
