Amritsar where they even burned effigies of Sharma. Raj Bedi, state general secretary of the Punjab Nursing Association also lashed out against Navjot Singh Sidhu who make regular appearances on the show.

‘How can Sidhu be a part of a show like this that demeans someone’s profession? He keeps laughing at jokes made about the medical profession, including those on doctors, even when his wife Navjot Kaur Sidhu is a doctor!’ he said

Kiku Shrada who also appears on the show reacted to the allegations made by the nurses saying saying, “It is all in good humor. I don’t think anyone should take it personally. We are not trying to make fun of any profession. Every character is part of some profession, and if people from every profession start objecting and protesting, then there will be no end.’
