Mumbai, Jan 17 (IANS): Popular comedian Kapil Sharma is happy that Sunil Grover, who became popular as Gutthi on his show "Comedy Nights With Kapil", is returning to the small screen with his own show and wishes him best luck.

"It's good. Everybody has the right to do what they want to do," Kapil said here Thursday at the red carpet of the 9th Renault Star Guild Awards.
