Following the success of Chhote Miyan, Colors will now take their stand-up show to another level with Chhote Miyan Bade Miyan. As the title suggests, for the first time ever we will see a professional stand-up comedian perform with a Chhote Miyan.

As per sources, the shoot of the show will start from 12 March and will air at the same time slot as that of Chhote Miyan. While the children will be chosen among participants of the ongoing Chhote Miyan, one is curious to know who the professional stand-up comedians will be. Few names that are doing the rounds are of Chandan Prabhakar, Kuldeep Dubey, Khayali and Rajiv Thakur.

The absence of names like Raju Srivastav, Sunil Pal and Ahsaan Qureshi is baffling. When contacted, Ahsaan Qureshi said, “Apparently, I’m hearing that the Raju Srivastav, Sunil Pal and Ahsaan Qureshi are very expensive thus the channel doesn’t want them.”

Meanwhile, it’s widely speculated that Rahul Mahajan will continue as a judge. There’s no word on the other judge Sachin Pilgaonkar. Kapil Sharma will remain as host. Juhi Parmar, who recently got married, will not be part of Chhote Miyan Bade Miyan.
