With Yash Raj Films announcing that he is no longer a part of their film, Bank-Chor, Kapil Sharma may have lost out on a plum project, but the actor-comedian is apparently not shying away from being whimsical. It turns out that he was difficult to deal with at a recent ad shoot.

Says a source, “Kapil seemed irritated by something and he was just not in a mood to shoot when he reached the sets. The entire crew had to wait for him for nearly half a day because he had come in very late and to top it all, they had to put up with his tantrums.” It turns out that the call time for the commercial’s shoot was 12 noon but Kapil landed on the sets only around 5pm. This is not the first time he has acted difficult.

Sometime ago, Kapil, who shot to fame with his show, Comedy Nights with Kapil, was supposed to host the inaugural function of the Celebrity Cricket League, but he walked out at the last minute because he wanted a separate vanity van. This apart, he is known to have made several stars, including Kangna Ranaut, wait on the sets of his show.

He was unavailable for comment.
