Looks like the wait is over! The king of comedy, Kapil Sharma is all set to make his comeback on TV with an all new season of The Kapil Sharma Show. This show will release around the festive season of Diwali.

This show would be Kapil's comeback to television after facing various health issues, emotional outbursts and professional downfall. He was last seen on TV in March, when he had launched his new show 'Family Time with Kapil', that went off air just after three episodes.

After that, Kapil Sharma took a break, reportedly started working on his physique and even hired a personal trainer. For hours, he was sweating it out at a gym before his much anticipated comeback, reports said.

Now that the talk about his comeback is on the cards, a source closer to Kapil said, "It will be a crisp and fresh project. We are still figuring out whether it will be a new show or the next season of The Kapil Sharma Show." He further added, "Kapil is still travelling. He will be back in Mumbai by mid-September. We would then start working on the content. Everything is at a very initial stage at the moment. We are looking forward to launch it during Diwali. Kapil is geared up to produce a quality show that will entertain his audience. He is looking at making another comedy show. We haven't yet locked the team."

Kapil was not in a pink of health and had gone for a small vacation with his family. According to reports, his health is better and he's making a speedy recovery.
