Their wedding in Jalandhar and Amritsar grabbed a lot of attention and had a crazy turnout. Not only that, we learned that the comedy king donated all the excess food from his wedding to an NGO, Feeding India, which distributes it to the lesser-privileged people in Jalandhar, Amritsar and the nearby cities.
Talking about his wedding, Kapil Sharma revealed he did not know the number of guests who had turned up for his wedding ceremony. "My wedding venue was hustled with approximately 5,000 people, but when I looked around, I could see about 40-50 people only whom I knew personally," he was quoted as saying in a statement from Sony Entertainment Television.

Kapil Sharma had to face a lot of troubles to make a stand in society and earn out of his talent. In a media interaction, Kapil shared some of his real-life stories along with some hilarious incidents that the three poets shared. While talking to the artists, he mentions a truth about his life and told the audience why he married late despite people telling him to marry soon.
He said, "Whenever I used to go to see a girl, her parents asked me about my career to which I reverted saying that I am a comedian. I have always got weird replies like, 'being a comedian is fine, but what do you do to earn money?' And this was the reason I have always been rejected for marriages as everybody thought this art of mine cannot make me earn bread and butter for my family."
On the work front, Kapil is currently hosting The Kapil Sharma Show after a brief break.
