The story
Kapil Sharma hosts a weekly variety talk show on a set dressed as an airport terminal, complete with a waiting area and his own café. Each episode brings celebrity guests, often promoting a new film, who chat with Kapil and are drawn into sketches by Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda and the rest of the troupe, while Archana Puran Singh watches and laughs from her guest chair.
Spoiler-free: only the set-up.
Who it suits
Easy family viewing for anyone who enjoyed Kapil Sharma's television shows. Netflix rates it U/A 13+; the humour is broad, with some cross-dressing gags and mild innuendo, and episodes run about an hour.
