Archana Puran Singh Expresses Regret Over Stalled Acting Career Due to Kapil Sharma Show Archana Puran Singh, a veteran actress with over 100 film and TV credits, has shared her frustration over her acting career being sidelined by her long-standing role on the popular comedy show Kapil Sharma Show. The 63-year-old actor, who made her film debut in 1982 with Nikah, has been a prominent figure in both Bollywood and television, but she now admits that her involvement with the show has limited her opportunities in other projects. In a recent interview, she expressed regret over the situation, stating that while the show has brought her immense popularity, it has also caused her acting career to stagnate. Puran Singh joined Kapil Sharma Show in 2019, replacing Navjot Singh Sidhu as a judge. The show, which transitioned from television to OTT platforms as The Great Indian Kapil Show, has kept her occupied with frequent shoots, leaving little time for other commitments. She explained that the show’s demanding schedule—formerly 100 episodes a year—has made it nearly impossible to take on new roles. “I’ve had to turn down many film projects because I couldn’t leave the show,” she said. “Filmmakers now assume I’m only capable of being a judge, not an actor.” Her struggles have led to a decline in professional opportunities. Puran Singh noted that after repeatedly declining offers, many filmmakers have stopped approaching her. “I’ve been so busy with the show that I’ve lost touch with the industry,” she said. “Now, I’m not getting any roles, and it’s hard to convince people I’m still a serious actor.” Despite this, she remains hopeful that the shift to OTT platforms might provide more flexibility.#rajkummar_rao #archana_puran_singh #kapil_sharma_show #toaster #ideal_school
