Comedy Nights With Kapil is an Indian Hindi-language sketch comedy and celebrity talk show hosted and produced by comedian Kapil Sharma. It was on-air on Colors TV amid 22 June 2013 to 24 January 2016. Many of the episodes feature celebrity guests who usually appear to promote their latest films in a comedy-focused talk show format. On 25 September 2013, a fire broke out on the sets of the show at Film City in Goregaon causing the entire set to collapse and an estimated loss of ₹20 Crores. Following the fire, two episodes were shot on sets of Bigg Boss in Lonavla. In September 2013, the show became India's highest rated scripted TV show. At the CNN-IBN Indian of the Year awards, Sharma was awarded the Entertainer of the Year award for 2013.

After a successful run of three years, Kapil Sharma decided to end the show after creative differences with the Colors TV. The last episode aired on 24 January 2016. In August 2016, Colors re-telecast old episodes of the show in their Sunday afternoon time slots due to low target rating points besides stiff competition with Kapil.

The show is adapted in Kannada as Majaa Talkies and hosted by Srujan Lokesh. This show is aired on Colors Kannada, the Kannada Channel owned by Colors TV.
