Clean Comedy !
THANKS TO MY AGE, CORPORATE BACKGROUND AND SALT-PEPPER HAIR, MOST CORPORATE CLIENTS RELATE TO MY CLEAN MATERIAL. I BRING IN A FRESH 40+ PERSPECTIVE IN TO THIS WORLD OF STAND UP COMEDY.

​

I’m a 40+ guy, we're talking about my age not IQ. A Mumbai based businessman who got up late in life and decided to do English Stand-up comedy so that I could tick it off my bucket list. An Indian Computer Engineer and a British Management Scholar who always orders soup one by two even when I’m eating alone.

​

I kept posting jokes on Facebook just as a comic-relief. There, I realised I have a sense of humour which people appreciate. I got positive feedback and a lot of support from family and friends. So I took a New Year resolution & signed up for an ‘open mic’. I still remember that night. My hands were sweating, my legs were shivering and my throat became dry but I managed to win that 4-minute slot. Yay! That experience was so enriching and addictive that after that just went on and on and on. That's how it all started.

​

> CNN-IBN rated me as one of the top 20 Comedians in India to watch out for.

​

> I also won the 'CEOS GOT TALENT' trophy competing against 11 other CEOs.

​

Started doing stand-up comedy as a hobby and to get over my mid-life crisis but started enjoying it a lot, got a lot of support from family and the audience so very recently, gave up my corporate life and now doing stand-up comedy full time and enjoy it a lot. What the hell! You live one life. I just started living mine at the age of 45.

​

Thanks to my corporate background, I bring a more professional approach in comedy, change my material based on the audience and customize it if required by the client.

​

I also host numerous corporate award functions where I infuse humour into the act itself and turn a usually boring and traditional event into a laughter ride filled with clean comedy without any BC & MC.
