Speaking about his time on Comedy Circus, Krushna Abhishek revealed he was getting a handsome amount of money for the show. He stated, “I signed up for Comedy Circus only for money. I was very happy with it. They were giving me Rs. 1.5 lakh per episode. We were shooting two episodes in a day, which meant I was earning Rs. 3 lakh per day.”

Furthermore, Krushna shared that the makers of Comedy Circus gave him a lot of respect because he was Govinda’s nephew. The show featured the 40-year old star with Sudesh.
