Sunil Grover always leaves us amazed with his incredible performances in comedy shows. From Comedy Nights to Kapil to The Great Indian Kapil Show, the actor-comedian has entertained the audience with his outstanding acts, leaving everyone in splits. No one will forget his brilliant impersonation of Shah Rukh Khan in 2015 during the release of Dilwale. Sunil was so good that SRK gave him a tight hug.
But if you think he is only good at mimicking Shah Rukh Khan, well, you are mistaken. During the last episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 1, Sunil Grover surprised everyone by brilliantly mimicking Salman Khan. The episode featured Kartik Aaryan and his mother and Sunil came on the stage dressed as Salman, hosting the show Bigg Boss. On the other hand, Krushna Abhishek portrayed Shah Rukh Khan in his Pathaan look. The internet couldn't stop discussing how perfectly Sunil impersonated even Salman on the show.

Archana said, "I think he does Salman better. His Salman is so natural." About mimicking the stars on stage, Sunil said, "I love them and I've grown up watching their movies. I celebrate them on stage whenever I am doing the impersonation. I really feel good. For some time, I forget my personality and I live their life. I switch." Rajiv Thakur stated how he is amazed at how his face even matches the actors he is mimicking. Thakur said how his eyes also match the actors, even when Sunil mimics Amitabh on stage.
