Kapil Sharma has no cafe: Kapil Sharma has not opened any cafe named Cups Cafe in Canada. This information is completely fabricated. Kapil Sharma is busy with his comedy shows and films and he has not made any announcement of any such new business.Truth of the viral video: The video which is going viral on social media is of an old incident and has no connection with Kapil Sharma. This video may be of some other shooting incident that happened in Canada which is being wrongly linked to Kapil Sharma.
Flaws in the journalist’s claim: The information given in the tweet of journalist Ritesh Lakhi who made this claim turned out to be fake. There is no concrete evidence or official confirmation of Harjeet Singh Ladi or any member of BKI taking responsibility for the firing on Kapil Sharma’s cafe.This incident is a great example of how misinformation can spread quickly on social media and confuse people.
Kapil Sharma’s reaction
As this entire news is fake, Kapil Sharma has also not reacted to it, because no such incident has happened. If something like this really happened to him, he would definitely have informed his fans.
It is clear that the news of firing at Kapil Sharma’s cafe in Canada is a false rumour. It is very important to check the veracity of any news on social media before blindly trusting it. This incident reminds us how important it is to be cautious of fake news in the digital age.
