Release

It was released on 28 January 2022 on Netflix.

Reception

Rohan Naahar of The Indian Express gave it 1.5 out of 5, calling it "Unstructured, unfunny and strictly for the comedian’s hardcore fans." [5] Suchin Mehrotra of Hindustan Times wrote, "I'm Not Done Yet is clearly an attempt to bring the Kapil Sharma audience to Netflix rather than allow us to see him in a different way. But, by the end, you can’t help but want to root for him and admire his journey - which I think is what he and his co-writer Ankalp Goswami were going for. More than laughs, they wanted us to go Good for you Kapil! More power to you. Good for you." [6]
