Kapil Sharma on firing at his cafe in Canada

Kapil Sharma said, "This incident happened in Canada, in Vancouver. I think there were three rounds of firing. What I feel is that the rules there the police don’t have enough power to control such situations. So when this case happened with us, it went to the federal level. Just like we have a central government, this matter was discussed in Canada’s Parliament."

The comedian added that the authorities in Canada are now taking steps to improve the situation after the firing incident.

"I believe that whatever God does, we often don’t understand the story behind it, but many people called me saying a lot was already going on there. After the firing at our cafe made news, the police and law-and-order authorities there are now taking steps to improve things," he said.

He said, “Everyone is feeling like they've lost a family member after Dharamji passed. Because when I lost my father, I was 22. When it was my age to learn from my father, he passed away. I didn't spend much time with him. But when I came to Mumbai, and we were about to start our show, no one knew what it was. The production house and the channel were trying to decide which celebrity to invite, and no one was willing to come. I met Dharam Paji for the first time on a flight to Toronto. And on that flight, we became close... I thought I should go and see Dharam Paji once... At that time, one of his films was being released, and he was busy. Yet, he told his team that this is my son, and arrange a date for him... I wrote yesterday as well. It was like losing my father for the second time..”
