Sunil Grover’s HILARIOUS Performance as Chumbak Mittal: The Comedy King is Back with Vicky & Sunny Kaushal
The return of Sunil Grover to the comedy stage alongside Kapil Sharma, a reunion the nation had waited six long years for, has been the highlight of The Great Indian Kapil Show (TGIKS). While every episode has been a treat, the one featuring Bollywood’s charming brothers, Vicky Kaushal and Sunny Kaushal, solidified Sunil Grover’s genius by introducing one of his most side-splitting characters yet: Engineer Chumbak Mittal.
The episode, which was the fourth of the show’s inaugural season on Netflix, saw Grover steal the spotlight, reminding the audience why his brand of deadpan, observational humour, combined with bizarre character backstories, remains unmatched. Chumbak Mittal’s performance was not just a segment; it was a masterclass in comedic disruption that left the Kaushal brothers and the entire set in splits.
Who is Engineer Chumbak Mittal?
In Sunil Grover’s universe, the airport terminal set of TGIKS provides the perfect backdrop for his character, Engineer Chumbak Mittal. Mittal Saab is, by his own slightly inebriated and grandiose description, a ‘Runway Engineer’.
He often makes his entrance riding a scooter, a detail that immediately contrasts with his official-sounding designation. His primary, and hilariously mundane, professional duty is to clear the “living obstacles and hindrances” from the runway before a flight takes off. Kapil Sharma, ever the foil, quickly translates this complex technical jargon into a simple, relatable punchline: “Straight up, you shoo away birds.”
This constant, understated battle between Chumbak Mittal’s self-importance and Kapil’s reality-check forms the core of the character’s comedy. He is a man who speaks of engineering principles while his actions are anything but sophisticated, creating a delightful clash that sets up one joke after another.
The Epic Interaction with Vicky and Sunny Kaushal
The segment with the Kaushal brothers was a chaotic symphony of brilliant comic timing. Sunil Grover’s character quickly targeted the guests, finding a way to draw them into his eccentric world.
The ‘Bhai-Bhai’ Engineering Theory
A standout moment came when Chumbak Mittal learned that Vicky Kaushal also has an engineering background. Instead of seeing a professional peer, Mittal Saab saw an opportunity to link their careers through a deeply flawed, but side-splittingly funny, theory.
He joked that there must be a whole wing of engineers who are brothers, because a single engineer, like himself, has to manage four wives and a monkey’s worth of problems. He further elaborated that one engineer is as troublesome as “one monkey and four wives,” but a brother-duo like Vicky and Sunny must be more efficient. The absurdity of this comparison, delivered with Grover’s signature sincerity, was an instant hit.
The Unclaimed Visiting Card
One of the most memorable gags involved a visiting card. Chumbak Mittal confidently handed a card to Vicky Kaushal, only to immediately confess that the card was not actually his—he had found it on the set. His logic? Since someone gave it to him, it was his duty to pass it on to the next person, joking that the life cycle of a visiting card ends at a bhelpuri stall.
Vicky Kaushal’s reaction to this moment of pure, unadulterated nonsense—a mix of confusion and uncontrollable laughter—was priceless and highlighted how Grover’s comedy can throw even seasoned actors off-guard.
Roasting the Show’s ‘Business Model’
Chumbak Mittal’s biggest punchlines, however, were reserved for the hosts, Kapil Sharma and Archana Puran Singh. This is a running gag in the character’s appearances and reached a peak in the Kaushal episode.
He hilariously “exposed” the simple mechanics of the show’s success, whispering to Vicky Kaushal that Kapil cracks a joke and Archana Puran Singh laughs, and that’s how they run their “business” (dhandha). He even offered a self-deprecating retort when Kapil asked why he was bothering the guest, saying that Kapil calls celebrities with respect (“Sir, Sir”) but then takes the money himself, while the celebrity appears for free. This type of meta-humour, where the comedian breaks the fourth wall and satirises the very show they are on, is a staple of Sunil Grover’s best work and creates a unique kind of rapport with the audience.
The Unscripted Magic
The episode’s energy was so electric that it led to a moment of genuine, unscripted comedy gold. When Vicky Kaushal dropped a witty one-liner in response to a joke, the unexpected nature of the retort made Sunil Grover, for a fleeting moment, break character. He glanced at Kapil with a helpless, smiling expression and muttered, “Sara script he kharab kar diya” (He ruined the entire script). This candid moment of the two comedy legends laughing together, and including the celebrity guests in their impromptu banter, was exactly the kind of magic fans had been hoping for from their reunion.
Engineer Chumbak Mittal’s performance was far more than just a funny cameo; it was a statement. It was a clear declaration that Sunil Grover is back in his element, creating characters that are bizarre, relatable, and flawlessly executed, cementing the Kaushal brothers’ episode as one of the most memorable of the season.
