Permanent Roommates actor Sumeet Vyas to be a part of Comedy Nights Bachao

Mirror has learnt that TV show Comedy Nights Bachao, which turned one on September 5, is currently undergoing an overhaul. Besides a grander scale and a new line-up of comedians, plans are also afoot to water down the content of the show, which is fashioned after the notorious 'Roasts'. Buzz is, celebrity guests like Akshay Kumar, Hrithik Roshan and Amy Jackson, among others, had reportedly expressed reservations about the format, making it tough for the makers to convince other stars to appear on the show.

Additionally, while Krushna Abhishek and Bharti Singh will continue as hosts, the channel has roped in Sumeet Vyas, star of the hit web series, Permanent Roommates, to inject some fresh humour in the show. The actor confirmed the news but refused to divulge details. "I have played characters with a humorous touch. But this is the first time I am trying my hands at mainstream stand-up comedy," he informed Mirror.

I see Bachao sometimes like for 10-15 minutes..

The hosts/comedians(Krushna and Bharati) are sometimes too rude to their guests. IDK how it is being allowed and why is anyone putting up with their rudeness? They are good comedians no doubt, but what's with bringing people down by mocking them? that too in a rude way

When did rudeness start making people laugh? Or, is there no other way to make people laugh?

It was horrible when they brought in Bhojpuri actors. I wanted to find a way to write a letter to the show or some other authority.

Why?
Its a show that's meant to be "roast" like.
If stars can handle it they shouldnt come. In these cases I have great respect for the bhojpuri stars, rahul roy, rakhi sawant etc who came and took so much shit.
It's the format, actors wanting to come should be ready to face the fire.

That is what the stars have been doing.. many of them have said no to come to the show which is why the bachao team is now changing their strategy
