Kapil Sharma given 15 days to appear before Maharashtra Commission for Women

A month ago, Maharashtra Commission for Women sent a showcause notice to comedian Kapil Sharma for passing derogatory comments on the pregnant women in his comedy show. And now after Kapil failed to give reply, MCW has issued a fresh summon for further clarification.

According to reports, Kapil didn't give a proper response to the initial summon. The commission miffed with comedian's lackadaisical initial response decided to send him a fresh legal notice.

In one episode of his popular show “Comedy Nights with Kapil”, while talking about the potholes in the road had cracked a joke on pregnant women. “Such roads have advantages also. If a poor man takes his pregnant wife, crossing a huge pothole – an on spot delivery can take place.” This joke didn't go down with number of women NGO's who found the joke derogatory and tasteless.

The latest reports have revealed that Kapil has been given time of fifteen days to appear before Maharashtra Commission for Women and give a proper reply to their questions and concerns. The officials related to the show have declined to comment on the incident.
