Twitter saw actor and television personality Archana Puran Singh trending on Tuesday after big things brewed in a field she is far removed from: politics. There was significant movement in the Punjab Congress camp after leader Navjot Singh Sidhu put in his resignation papers to party head Sonia Gandhi. This, amid whispers of former Chief Minister Capt. Amarinder Singh joining the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) days after quitting Congress.
The unfolding political crisis has prompted memers and social media quick wits to reach for the furthest corners of the conversation in anticipation of the far-reaching effects of the Congress leaders' decisions. And netizens think Archana Puran Singh, current celebrity judge on Sony's The Kapil Sharma Show, could stand to lose a lot.
Singh joined the popular talk show in 2019, succeeding Sidhu who occupied the seat from 2016 upto then. The change of judges has been a long-running gag on the show, with both Singh and Sidhu recognisable as faces closely related to the comedy series.

Singh has previously revealed she received a massive amount of felicitations and bouquets when Sidhu became the Punjab Congress chief in July this year, implying that his continuation in politics meant she would retain her judge seat.
"Mujhe itne phoolon ke bouquets aaye hai, ‘mubarak ho, Archana ma’am’ kyunki woh wahaan par ban gaye," Singh said on an episode.
Over the years, Singh, through her association with television ">comedy shows - most notably with the Comedy Circus franchise - is popular as the 'laughter queen.' Besides the small screen, the film credits to her name include Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Mohabbatein and Aashiq Awara.
