Neha Pendse surprised us all with her stint as the game master in Family Time with Kapil. Now, the actor is all set to tickle funny bones in the second edition of Entertainment Ki Raat.

The show will also star Mubeen Saudagar, Saumya Tandon, RJ Abhilash, Balraj and child artist Divyansh. Talking about the show to a leading daily, Neha said, ''Honestly, I am still exploring if I do have that bone (laughs) but I think it all started with May I Come in Madam. I am really happy that even though I am stuck in the comedy genre I have not been typecast. I am still getting to experiment a lot with my characters, which is a boon.''

“This is very tough that it can give you a headache. But you find happiness when you know that your gag has turned out well or your punchlines were perfect. That gives you immense satisfaction.” When asked which comedians does she look up to, the actor stated, “Kapil (Sharma), I actually like him a lot. Also Zakir Khan and Bharti Singh. I think all of them have their own way to perform and don’t have the same flavour. So, there’s a lot to learn from each of them,'' she added.

Her joining Entertainment Ki Raat got a lot of people speculating the end of her association with Family Time with Kapil Sharma. She clarified and said, ''Honestly, not just me but no one has any idea of what’s happening. It’s so sad for we started with a bang and I was really looking forward to this show. I hope the channel takes a call soon and we get a better picture of the entire scenario.”

Neha added, “I was under a contract with them but with nothing happening, they told me that I can take this up. EKR is a small stint and once Family Time gets rolling, I would happily get back.”

Although the actor feels bad with whatever happened with Kapil, but having no personal association, she did not speak to him. “But I really hope whatever he is going through gets sorted and he bounces back,'' she said.
