The camaraderie between the two comedians was evident from the outset, with Kapil expressing his admiration for Nadir's skills and overall presentation on his show. "I like you a lot, Nadir. I was just watching your show. You speak very well, and conduct the show well too," remarked Kapil, setting the stage for the exciting proposal.

"I want us to do a show together sometime. Let's do this in Dubai," Kapil proposed, showcasing his eagerness to collaborate across borders and bring a unique blend of humour to the audience. The suggestion of hosting the joint venture in Dubai added a touch of international flair to the prospect.

As the conversation unfolded, Kapil delved into his family roots, revealing a connection to Lahore. "I am basically from Amritsar," said Kapil. "I know you're from somewhere nearby, Lahore perhaps. Basically, my great grandfather or grandfather, they were from Lahore." He went on to outline how other members of his family were also from Lahore. "My father was born in Amritsar in 1915. I have many memories attached to this." The famed comic from across the border reiterated his love for Nadir, saying, "Bro, I truly like you a lot. Let's meet one day in Dubai, Nadir."

"We've made something nice, bro," Kapil continued. "I want you to participate in it as well. Tell me, as soon as I go to Dubai, I will call you. This time, we'll meet in Dubai."

In a heartwarming gesture, Nadir requested Kapil to speak to his mother, who joined the conversation. Kapil graciously engaged with Nadir's mother, receiving warm praises and prayers for his success. The exchange highlighted the cross-cultural appeal of comedy and the potential for collaborative endeavours that transcend geographical boundaries.
