Kapil Sharma’s newly launched business in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, has reopened its doors to the public just days after a violent incident. The popular comedian owns the floral-themed Kap’s Cafe with his wife, Ginni Chatrath. The establishment had gained early popularity for its charming pink-and-white decor, artisanal coffee, and sweet treats. However, the cafe became the target of a violent shooting attack on July 9, only days after its soft launch.
Police believe the incident was a planned assault. Investigators suspect the Laddi gang, which is believed to have ties to the banned Khalistani group Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), was involved in the attack.
Despite the incident, Kapil Sharma and his team have worked quickly to restore normalcy. On July 19, the official Instagram account of Kap’s Cafe shared an emotional message announcing the reopening. The post read, “We’ve missed you and are truly grateful for your continued love and support. With heartfelt thanks, we’re opening our doors again – ready to welcome you back with warmth, comfort, and care. See you soon.”
Kapil Sharma also acknowledged the reopening on his Instagram stories. In his post, he wrote, “Proud of you team @thekapscafe_ love n best wishes.” The post was widely shared by fans and well-wishers across social media, many of whom expressed relief and happiness about the cafe’s return.
When the attack occurred, it shocked many in the local community and beyond. The cafe’s team had initially responded to the incident with a heartfelt note, expressing their pain and sadness. The message read, “We opened Kap’s Cafe with hopes of bringing warmth, community, and joy through delicious coffee and friendly conversation. To have violence intersect with that dream is heartbreaking. We are processing this shock, but we are not giving up.”
Their message struck a chord with many supporters who praised the staff for their strength and refusal to back down. Customers and locals in Surrey have since rallied around the business, showing up in person and online to support the reopening.
The return of Kap’s Cafe marks a symbol of hope and resilience for the owners and their community. The management has reportedly taken additional steps to ensure safety for staff and visitors moving forward. Community leaders have also called for calm and cooperation to prevent further violence.
Kapil Sharma, one of India’s most loved entertainers, ventured into the Canadian hospitality scene earlier this year. The decision to launch Kap’s Cafe was a personal dream for him and his wife, combining their shared love for coffee and community gathering spaces.
Kap’s Cafe was designed to offer more than just coffee. The menu features a variety of gourmet items, and the café’s interiors are inspired by floral themes, soft lighting, and cozy corners aimed at creating a welcoming atmosphere for families, friends, and individuals alike.
Although the violent attack threatened to derail those plans, the reopening has breathed new life into the project. Supporters of the cafe now see it as a symbol of unity and determination.
The team at Kap’s Cafe has expressed their gratitude for the support they have received and encouraged customers to visit. The mood in the cafe is now one of cautious optimism, with many hoping the worst is behind them.
Kapil Sharma’s personal message and the strong comeback of his team have reassured fans that the cafe remains true to its original purpose – a place filled with warmth, community, and joy.
