Stand-up comedian Abishek Kumar is all set to make his Bollywood debut with Kapkapiii, a horror-comedy film featuring Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade. The movie, which promises a thrilling mix of laughter and scares, is slated to release on May 23.

When asked about his character, Abishek shared, “I play a very sincere, religious, and incredibly loyal lover.

Abishek also mentioned the challenges faced during the shoot, recalling, “We shot in Faridabad during peak winter, and the real challenge wasn’t the spooky elements of the script, but the smog and pollution. The thick smog at times made visibility difficult, but our team’s upbeat attitude kept the atmosphere light and lively. Despite the harsh weather, we powered through, and the joy on set kept the spirits high.”

Speaking about his experience working with Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade, he added, “It was such a smooth and comfortable experience. They treated us like equals, giving us the space to improvise, which made a huge difference. Their encouragement and shared insights boosted my confidence, and I learned so much by observing their effortless acting. They were incredibly humble and approachable, making the entire experience even more enriching.”
