[VIDEO] Shoaib Akhtar mocking Pakistani Players Over Their Age in Comedy Nights with Kapil

Nothing malicious at all.

I've watched most of this and it was light hearted fun.
 
It's a comedy program.

I saw it. He avoided all contact with females on the show and behaved very sobar.
 
another clip mocking their english akhtar is becoming a laughing stock finding a job as a joker in media maybe

Come on bro, he's making fun of an older man's sight and physical disabilities. Definitely in poor taste.
 
It's a comedy program. The Indian cricketers on the show also made fun of their colleagues.

I have no problem with him making fun of Afridi, Younis, and Misbah's ages. But to have fun at on older person (Chairman) is simply distasteful. Just my humble opinion.

Why? He is retired player and has nothing to do with PCB. The older person is not some fakeer, but holds a public position.

I see nothing wrong in making fun of him.
 
Wasim Akram also mentioned his team mates of past when he came to Comedy Night, but he did not show any lack of respect. Thats the difference between someone who values his country & Akhtar.

Wasim knows the limits when he talks Akhtar just can't control his mouth he throw words like coward on media for his country captain. I have 100 difference with Misbah as captain but i will never use words like coward for him.

So wait, let me make sure I understand what you are saying. You are saying that its okay to mock the physical disabilities of an older person simply because he holds a public position. Shabash. Well done buddy.

Funny comments.
Nothing wrong. He is in a comedy show. He is not talking about an oldman but he is talking about pcb chairman.
 
Comments about PCB Chairman and Akhtar mocking him was NOT cool.

Plain and simple.

Others were fine.

Akhtar is an actor.

Can be a sensible guy when he wants to but mostly says stuff depending on where he is. Audience pleaser.
 
People should watch the episodes when Gavaskar and Sehwag came also when Virat came and later Yuvi and Bhajji came they all made fun of their team mates.Nothing wrong by Akhtar.He also said openly that Pakistan has won more matches vs India and the crowd clapped.

after watching this clip Basit Ali on air called him Shoaib Actor lol and told the audience that he was famous as Actor in dressing room and this kapil program was at night so shoaib was drunk (mentioned it in hidden words) lol basit ali got his masala in hand too
 
While I wince at some of the stuff, I guess I understand the compulsions for Shoaib as well. With the 24 hour news cycle and wall to wall coverage and plethora of commentators, he has to find a way to stand out as well.
 
its comedy show..nobody cares about pcb in india....it was just fun cmmon guys...
 
There is nothing wrong in it.You can't make angry faces like Basit Ali in a comedy show
 
I am really surprised why Akhtar is not given an offer by bollywood again he looks like a readymade desi gangster perfect for some movies and acting skills are good and can improve further with some help.
 
I am not a fan of mocking old people - the bit about the Chairman was rather tasteless.
 
akhtar plays to the galleries
 
I am not a fan of mocking old people - the bit about the Chairman was rather tasteless.

Although It was funny he needs to realise that he will be old one day too...

It was clear he was talking about Ijaz Butt who was in fact a very capable guy in his younger days.
 
Well most of it was light hearted banter, but it still left a pretty bad taste in the mouth..kind of embarrassing to watch one of your favorite players act like a stage show comedian on international tv.

Inevitable though...as much as i liked Shoaib,it was apparent that his personality,thought process and behavior was targeted at one thing only, being the centre of attention 24/7...his customary histrionics over the span of his career served that very purpose...and hes doing the same now..''look im Shoaib Akhter...love me or hate me,i dont care..as long as im relevant''

Yes that bit was a bit OTT. He was obviously referring to Ijaz Butt.
 
question to people----if you are unhappy about mocking old people then you shud be unhappy mocking fat people because its a disease,mocking a black guy because its a racism and everything..it was just a comedy show....i watched the clip of basit ali and the guest person they said to be successful in india you need to bash pakistan there....and whole pannel agreed (with those two jokers called irfan malik and his jodidar comedian who came to india around 7-8 years back on comedy show and earned a lot of love ,money,fame in india) and clapped ...what the hell....it was just a comedy show ,people should watch other episodes as well in which they have mocked biggest superstars and cricketers and all....some people can show patriosim only by pulling the legs of those who are earning money honestly and getting fame and famous.............................if you watch the last line of the episode akthar said to india that whole pakistan dnt think bad of you people,they think good....he said such a beautiful line and still ome people cant do anything in life instead try to pull other leg only......

I don't see how that's any different from ppers making fun of Jamshed, YK, Misbah's english and so on.

It's a light-hearted show, so these type of things are bound to happen. Chill out guys!

Making fun is cool mate. Misbah, Younis, etc age.

Mocking old men is not cool.

It looked very cringeworthy.

Dude, no one appreciates mockery. Whether is of an old, fat, poor person or whomever. No one appreciates it. He can make fun of his colleagues' ages.. that's just light-hearted humor, but when he takes it up a notch by mocking the way an old guy walks, or thinks, or acts.. you're taking it to a whole another level.

This isn't an India vs Pakistan issue.. just a comment stating he needs to be a little more respectful of elders. Can't believe so many of you have an issue with that.
 
mocking fat guy is cool??? mocking a black guy is cool??? its not that question i knw problem is something else

Mocking fat or black guy isn't.

Who said it is?

Fat is lesser in scale compared to black or old people's inability.

But making fun of age, one's batting, bowling, etc is fine.
 
Most of this was harmless, but he has teetered close to making some tasteless comments.

He's said some tasteless stuff in the recent past as well, for example: "After every World Cup either of these two things happen - our coach is sacked or is found dead".

-_-
 
It would be hypocritical of me to get offended by Shoaib making the same jokes we do on here every day just because the audience is Indian.

yeah its common in subcontinent mostly to mock black or fat people in comedy shows and no one has problem with that,i love watching pakistani punjabi comedy shows...they are funnier like hell...kapil show is nothing in front of that shows like hasab e haal or khabarnaak ..and its common to mock black guy or fat person every where in comedy shows......
you know the problem is if akthar would have said this in pak show then people would have laughed and no one would have complained..that's what i think its my opinion well...

No many here would have had problems.

I would have had a problem.

Just cos we SC people are blatant racists doesn't mean its right.

I am all for fun (brutal fun by taking others to the cleaners) but mocking is not cool just cos Pak shows does it too.

Wrong is wrong.

this..audience is indian ..may be that's the issue...it was only fun..no one in even india media picks any line on that note seriously to make a mockery or news of it..

i watched full episode...where did he said that???
 
Well whatever he said is pretty much true but you shouldn't be making fun of someone's appearance. Besides that you shouldn't be washing dirty linen out in the public.

There is a concept of self respect which we as Pakistani's are losing extremely fast by being very harsh on ourselves. :(

buddy there are many things in society which are not good..but we still do it so why mock it now...on a serious note brown people are i suppose the most racist people in earth....they use racism in daily life even our so called superstars shahrukh khan.,shahid and many more etc are used to promote fairness creams so that people can buy that by watching them and can get whiter skin loll... ..that's also racism in my sense. ..well but that's how it is i mean .
 
It was at a Cricket Conclave hosted by an Indian news channel prior to the Ind-Pak game.

that was not a good thing to say,that was not a comedy show also .infact in comedy show too that thing can never be said for sure .
 
Maybe harbhajjan singh should have commented on his racist remarks against Symonds and how tendulkar lied about the entire incident.

"There are many things in society which are not good" doesn't mean those who do it are right.
 
He went too far at times but in terms of duration, he only said 2-3 things in 4 mins which were not called for. Otherwise I found several things funny/good like:

Akhtar saying since I'm your guest (as Bhaji said) then allow us to play in the IPL :))

Bhaji said when I went Pakistan, none of the shop-keepers charged me, the togetherness was very good.

Shoaib Akhtar said I have NEVER been able to get Inzy out in the nets.

Bhaji said Yousuf, Inzy and Saeed Anwar were the most difficult batsmen to bowl against.

In the end Akhtar said before I leave I would like to say that the Pakistanis in Pakistan think good of all of you guys, so please stop with the bad air between you guys if there is any.
 
It was truly hilarious. Just light hearted jokes. Wonder why Akhtar is always taken in a negative light. What he said in critics was right and these are just few jokes on a comedy show
 
Shoaib seems to have good sense of humor and he doesn't seem insecure at all as he took jokes on himself too.

He could have avoided the jokes on the PCB chairman but its kind of error in judgement. We all do sometimes.

But overall, made the show sporty and energetic.

how was Bhajji? any jokes by him on indian team's expense?

I only saw a 3-4 min clip and all he was doing was making fun of Pak cricketer's English. I have two problems with that.
1) the smaller one being that his English is ok at best so comes across as a bit hypocritical. but its fine tbh
2) the inferiority complex it entails. As if speaking English is some big achievement. I don't know when subcontinent will get out of this slave mentality.

also what I noticed is that he fudged up facts to make up a story of inzy obstructing the field and being given out. Firstly, the first incident he mentioned was a couple of months before against England in a test match off a throw by Ian Bell. But he made it seem like as if India also played a role and the obstructing the field incident happened the next match. Secondly, he claims that India was winning 3-0, 4-0 that series 'like always.' Infact, the obstructing field match in Peshawar (?) was the first match of the series which Pakistan won so dunno where he got this from.

Is the rest of the show along similar lines too.

One thing Ive noticed is that Indian cricketers do have a tendency to make up stories as they go along. Or atleast mix a couple of incidents and merge then in one which is convenient for them. I remember same things happened in Sehwag (or yuvraj?) retelling of some 'baap baap hota hai' comment whereas there was no match which corroborated with his story.

Anyways I know its prolly in light hearted mood and I should reserve judgement till I watch the whole thing but if Pakistani players get bashed for stupid, immature comments so should he,

Sitting in the lap of the enemy making sick jokes about your country, doesn't sound so good to me.

The whole jokes part was focused on Shohaib being a clown and him praising Indian cricketers.

while I would choose different words (eg. enemy) I agree with the sentiment

I feel its a big desi trait to hate on yourself to win favors with the majority ppl in a setting. In the US Ive noticed a lot of Indians join white ppl in making fun of indian accent or the bobbling head. Which is fine. But they themselves don't join or initiate jokes on the americans which makes it just a one way street. So in their efforts to win over/ be friendly with Americans they are making fun at the expense of their own country/culture. While they think that they are being friends with Americans this is simply not the case. A proper banter goes both ways.

This is what Shoaib is doing here. He thinks by joining in making fun of Pakistani ex-cricketers etc in India and praising anything indian to the moon, he will win friends and favors and be accepted in India whereas most likely this will not happen. ]]

Someone like Wasim is a better case as he didn't indulge in these cheap tactics and is more respected and sought among indians
 
I am really surprised why Akhtar is not given an offer by bollywood again he looks like a readymade desi gangster perfect for some movies and acting skills are good and can improve further with some help.

I wont be surprised if he does a few Mohsin hasan did a few movies too if im not wrong. Most of the jokes are light hearted and he made fun of the indian team mates too , some people on this forum need to develop a sense of humor and thick skin.
 
Great stufff from AKHTAR

Was a legend as a player and proving to be a Legend as a commentator and critic as well
 
I can see why Pakistanis would take offence to this. Also, it doesn't help that Bhajji is using Pakistani examples as well. If Bhajji used Indian examples then it wouldn't be seen as negative.

Bhajji was good but Shoaib was better. Shoaib's comic timing was better.

May be I had seen Bhajji's interviews couple of times before so there was no surprise. Bhajji was kinda reserved where as Shoaib was really enjoying.
 
Not surprised at such comments from Shoaib. He has always been the bad boy. He's just opening up now to his world.
 
that was pretty funny stuff.. a lot better than what I was expecting from Shoaib
 
A lot of people in pakistan criticizing SA over this show. I think he was hilarious. I see nothing wrong with what he said.

How is he being bad? When Omer Sherif makes fun of them no one complains so why hate on him?

Umer Sherif never made fun of him. He just said that Shoaib shouldn't go to any other country and talk bad about Pakistan Cricket. He even said that Shoaib is more than welcome to come to my show and criticise here rather than going to another country and doing it.
 
Pak Cricket is laughable and so are the ages of players like Afridi when none probably has a birth certificate. Sort it out if you don't want others to mock you! Mind you, does Shoaib have any evidence to prove his age??.

To make fun of your own countrymen in your own backyard is harmless. But to make fun of your country as a whole in the lap of your sworn enemy is barely forgivable. This is not some cheap banter. This was setup to make Shohaib look a fool and to get cheap laughs from the Indians. Then Shohaib later goes onto praise Indian players while Bhajan and Siddhu and that copycat Kapil have a huge grin.

Chill out, stop acting like ISIS. They are also human and it was just a comedy show.
 
If he was talking about Ijaz Butt then I dont have any problem with it.

The guy was a tool by any standard.

Shoaib was rightly getting some revenge.

Under Ijaz Butt's chairmanship, PCB released personal medical knowledge about Shoaib akhtar and told the media he had genital warts which is why he wouldnt make the team :facepalm:

Besides that it was a comedy show! Meaning not to be taken seriously. Us Pakistanis are way too sensitive, and need to relax. Stop making a mountain out of a molehill....
 
one more thing yes kapil himself confessed that he learned many things from pakistan comedy shows when ali zafar visited comedy n8.....even i too like to watch pak punjabi shows but these narrow minded people umar sharif said kapil even made his clothes by copy cat their shows with such rudness,as if kapil had asked to say about pcb and players.
umar sharif need to know the amount of money and fame kapil gets is 10 times more than umar sharif can even think of.haters take that.i used to be his fan but he showed his mentality when he said musalmaan tried to attack somnath temple 17 times before capturing that temple too...and he was so proud of that.....
 
Umar Sharif blasted him and the copycat Kapil today on Har Lamha Purjosh. Stomach hurts.
Tell Umer Sharif no one watches his programme in India so what he said about Kapil is worth nothing in India.But this also proves that how many people watch Kapils show in Pakistan.May be thats why Umer Sharif is hurt.
 
Umer Sherif never made fun of him. He just said that Shoaib shouldn't go to any other country and talk bad about Pakistan Cricket. He even said that Shoaib is more than welcome to come to my show and criticise here rather than going to another country and doing it.
Well Akhtar is free to go anywhere.Ask Umer Sharif why he came to various Indian shows and performed and even judged one show.Hypocrisy at its best.
 
Where can you see the full show? Please post link here if it is not against PP policy.
