Kapil Sharma was one of the biggest newsmakers of the year. The actor and comedian, who won the hearts of thousands thanks to his famous TV shows Comedy Nights with Kapil and The Kapil Sharma Show, lost some ardent fans this year. It all started mid-air when Kapil beat up his co-star Sunil Grover on a flight in Australia.

The brawl was a nasty one, with Kapil yelling at and abusing his team-mates Ali Asgar and Chandan Prabhakar.

Kapil’s miseries didn’t stop at this. The year’s disturbing events took a toll on his health to such an extent that he had an acute nervous breakdown. Several film stars refused to be on Kapil’s show, after he made them wait for long hours and at times even refused to show up for scheduled celebrity shoots. At the trailer launch of his film Firangi the actor confessed to his mistakes and also revealed how he battled alcohol addiction.
