27 Quotes by Kapil Sharma

People tell me that my appearance in real life is better than on-screen. Perhaps people think I am exactly like the characters I play on TV.

I used to do a lot of serious theatre during my school and college days. Comedy was only reserved for youth festival and inter-college competitions.

People think I am funny all the time. But I am not. I am serious, too. Also, I enjoy serious, dramatic films.

I am an Air Force brat who grew up at various Air Force bases. I changed six schools in about five years and got stability for the first time when I was sent to a boarding school, Rishi Valley.

People expect comedy from me but I am not just a stand-up comedian anymore. I act on stage, host 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' and also conduct interviews on my show. I have grown as a person and an artiste.

Every artist says that he/she wants to do something challenging, and I'm not any different. If someone approaches me with a serious role, I'll be more than happy.

I have received so much love from people. Why will I feel insecure? I am happy.

Simple things make me very happy.

When I see that things are not going the way they should be, I just clam up.
