Archana Puran reveals that her co-star told her that she couldn’t do comedy

Archana Puran Singh has revealed that one of her Mr Ya Mrs co-stars discouraged her as an actor, and she couldn’t do comedy for a long time after that. Archana, who is currently a judge on The Kapil Sharma Show, believes that recognising and encouraging new talent is critical to their development.

Archana will next be seen with Shekhar Suman on India’s Laughter Champion. When Kapil Sharma’s team departs for a world tour in the near future, the show will take its place.

“I believe that motivating a new performer on stage is critical. When a child recites poetry and you do not applaud him or her, he becomes self-conscious. Similarly, when I sit in the judge’s chair, I feel maternal toward each contestant, and a little bit of motivation in the form of laughter can help a contestant perform better. I remember doing a show called Mr Ya Mrs in the 1980s and having to perform a comic scene, and one of the actors telling me I didn’t know how to do comedy “ETimes spoke with Archana.

She continued, “He didn’t think it was funny to make certain expressions. After that, I couldn’t do stand-up comedy for a long time because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to make anyone laugh. But, as time passed, I mustered the courage to work hard, and I recall that the show was a good example of comedy, and that I was praised for my efforts.”

Archana worked in TV shows like Zee Horror Show and Junoon after her debut with Mr Ya Mrs in 1988. She made a memorable appearance in Karan Johar’s directorial debut, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, in 1998. Miss Briganza, her character, is one of the most well-known characters in Hindi cinema. Archana has recently been working on television shows.
