Bollywood actress Archana Puran Singh has rejoined her duties on The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3.

Archana Puran Singh Revealed The Real Reason

In an interview with News18, Archana revealed that she took a break from films due to the demanding schedule of The Kapil Sharma Show when it was aired on television. The De Dana Dan actress shared, “When we were on television, we didn’t get any breaks. We had fun doing episodes over and over, and we got a lot of riyaaz. The entire team was always energised, but I had turned down a lot of film offers. Now, I am thrilled that I have the time to accept films.”

“Vashu ji and several other producers and directors had approached me with film offers,” Archana shared. “But with so many shoots happening overseas—be it Scotland, Mauritius, or Australia—it became tough to commit. I’d often get calls for 20-day schedules abroad, and I’d have to say, ‘Only if you’re filming in Mumbai!’ Even then, juggling Kapil’s show, which we shot two to three times a week, left little room. Sometimes I had to pass on projects shot in Mumbai itself. But now, I finally have the flexibility to say yes, and it feels great.
