INTERESTING BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Krushna Abhishek, the charismatic Indian comedian and actor, has carved a niche for himself in the world of entertainment. Born into a family steeped in artistic talent, he is the nephew of the legendary actor Govinda, which undoubtedly influenced his comedic flair. Despite his familial connections, Krushna’s journey has been unique. After the passing of his mother, he was raised by his aunt, Geeta Singh, in Lucknow, while his sibling, Arti, remained with their father in Mumbai. This familial separation led Arti to adopt a different surname, a choice she later explained in an interview as a way to establish her own identity, which further highlights the complexities of sibling relationships amidst personal loss.
Krushna’s career has been marked by both struggle and success. He initially ventured into Bhojpuri cinema, appearing in films such as “Sathi Sanghatee” (2002) and “Kahe Bansuriya Bajaye” (2002), before transitioning to Hindi films, including prominent titles like “Bol Bachchan” (2012) and “Entertainment” (2014). However, it was on television that he truly gained recognition. His comedic partnership with Sudesh Lehri in the popular “Comedy Circus” series not only showcased his talent but also helped him earn a significant income, reportedly receiving ₹3 lakh per episode. Their dynamic duo became synonymous with laughter, endearing them to audiences and establishing Krushna as a household name.
His personal life took a significant turn when he met Kashmera Shah during the filming of “Aur Pappu Pass Ho Gaya” in 2006. At that time, Kashmera was navigating a tumultuous divorce from her first husband. Initially, their relationship caused some family friction due to the age difference—Kashmera being eleven years Krushna’s senior—and her past. However, their love story blossomed, leading to years of living together and a secret marriage in June 2012, which they revealed publicly only after a few years. The couple’s decision to keep the marriage private stemmed from the initial disapproval of Krushna’s family. They eventually celebrated their union in a Christian ceremony, elegantly tying their past and present together.
As Krushna continued to shine in the entertainment industry, he further showcased his talent on various television shows alongside Kashmera, including “Nach Baliye 3” (2007) and “Kabhi Kabhii Pyaar Kabhi Kabhii Yaar” (2008). He also participated in “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 4” (2010) and later took on the role of a judge on “Krazzy Kiya Re” (2015). His versatility extended beyond comedy as he hosted shows like “OMG! Yeh Mera India” (2016) and played various characters on “The Drama Company” (2017). His dedication to his craft and ability to engage with audiences solidified his place as a beloved figure in Indian entertainment.
In June 2017, Krushna welcomed twin sons through surrogacy, a milestone that brought immense joy to his life. His journey from a struggling artist to a proud father showcases his resilience and commitment to family. He often reflects on his past, sharing stories of financial hardships and his early days in the industry, including a memorable appearance on the poster for the film “Hatya” (1988) as a child. Today, Krushna Abhishek continues to thrive, balancing his roles as a comedian, actor, and family man, all while enjoying life with his beloved pet dog, Boo.
