TV's favourite comedians reunite for 'Comedy Classes'

After tickling the funny bone of audiences with stand-up comedy shows, Krushna Abhishek, Bharti Singh, Shakeel Siddiqui and Sudesh Lehri have teamed up again, but this time they will entertain their fans through an innovative show titled "Comedy Classes".

Produced by Optimystix, the sitcom going on air Oct 7 on Life OK, is about an acting school called - Ache Din Institute. One can look forward to some funny moments with Krushna as acting guru and Bharti as a dance instructor, who has her own moves like BhartiNatyam.

Pakistani comedian Shakeel is expected to heighten the entertainment quotient as Urdu teacher, who can speak only seven sentences in the language. If that is not enough, Sudesh will join the entourage as music teacher, who mixes two songs to make his own version.

Ajit Thakur, general manager of the channel, says that they believe in serving the audience with "variety".

"We didn't want to do stand-up comedy, so we thought of doing sitcom. We got the best comedians together. It is a combination of Bollywood and comedy. It's a Bollywood training class," Thakur told reporters at the show's launch.

The event saw the actors performing too.

"We are planning to run it for five to six months. If it works, we will take a break of three months and then come back, so that the quality is not compromised," he added.

Another highlight of the show will be the presence of actresses like Bruna Abdullah and Madhura Naik as students.

Vipul D. Shah, the man who penned some of the most successful comedies for the small screen namely "Dekh Bhai Dekh" and "Shriman Shrimati", says comedy is his forte and he is just taking it forward with the show.

"Our 'Comedy Circus' ran for over seven years. We thought of getting the same artists and do a sitcom. I am a producer, but also a writer. I've written for a few sitcoms like 'Dekh Bhai Dekh' and 'Shriman Shrimati'. So, I wanted to do what I am best at," said Shah, one of the partners in Optimystix.

During the course of the show, Bollywood stars will up the glamour quotient.

"We will hopefully have the cast of 'Happy New Year'. Maybe, we will teach Shah Rukh Khan how to act in one of the episodes. The stars will be presented according to the format of the show," said Shah

Earlier in the day we wrote about Srman Jain being a part of Life OK’s upcoming show Comedy Classes (Optimystix).

Now, we have learnt that sexy and sassy Madhura NaikM (Uttaran, Tumhari Paakhi) is also a part of the series.

Madhura will be seen as a South Indian student, and her mannerisms will be similar to that of Deepika Padukone’s character from the movie Chennai Express.

We spoke to Madhura who said in confirmation: “Yes, I am pretty excited about the endeavour. I have never done comedy before and I am looking forward to an enriching experience.”

We wish her luck!!!

Now, Comedy Classes is touted to be one of the biggest projects on Life OK. It is also said that show was earlier pitched to Colors, but went to the rival channel owing to slot issues, however we cannot confirm on the development.

Bharti will be seen as a dance teacher, Krushna will be an acting professor, Sudesh a music teacher, Bruna will be a sexy foreign student and Srman a gangster.

Srman Jain to return to TV with Life OK's Comedy Classes

With Life OK coming up with a new humorous show Comedy Classes (Optimystix Productions) featuring Krushna Abhishek, Sudesh Berry, Bruna Abdullah, Bharti Singh and Pakistani superstar Shakeel, a new name has been added to the talented ensemble to bring in few more laughs.

The actor we are talking about is Srman Jain, who was last seen in Adaalat. Srman recently also produced a Marathi film.

“I am super excited to do a comedy show. I have always wanted to work in this genre and since Optimystix has been like a family, I kept approaching them. Vipul (Producer Vipul Shah) kept on telling when the right time comes it will happen. And guess this was the right time. The audition and all fell in the right place and I am having a superb time shooting with this talented bunch of people,” he shared.

When asked if he is nervous about sharing the stage with ‘comedy veterans’, he said: “ “They are of course great comedians but there is no comparison as I am an actor and would react and perform differently. But I am sure it’s going to be a great team and an even greater show. Viewers would definitely enjoy it.”

The shooting for the show has already started and it will air from 7 October, as reported in the media.
