Top Stand-up Comedians In India
One of the finest methods to make yourself happy is to watch stand-up comedians on YouTube. Nowadays stand-up comedians are popular among teenagers, and their videos are free to access on YouTube. After purchasing their tickets to a show, you may also attend one of their stage shows. You can also access their videos by buying an amazon prime subscription.
In India, comedy is progressively gaining popularity in many forms. What I mean is that the People of India are constantly moving towards the OTT watching culture and thus stand-up comedy tops the list of online entertainment. Writing and presenting jokes is also unique for countries like India. India counts among those countries where jokes aren’t restricted by language.
AIB abbreviated as All India Bhakchod was listed in the year 2015 and has a list of talented stand-up comedians. They never pass up a chance to make others laugh. These platforms provide humour that viewers find related to their own lives, resulting in their popularity. It’s also pointless to do clean humour as a stand-up comedian. On social media, dirty jokes are perhaps the most popular.
It completely depends on the audience whether they find those double-meaning jokes funny or not. India’s best stand-up comedian of 2022 is Zakir Khan whose jokes make people watch his videos repeatedly. In a culture fascinated with mimicking Bollywood, the comic, whose shows are mostly in Hindi, has cultivated a loyal following that understands him thanks to his catchphrase, “Main sakht launda hoon.” “Pighalta nahi hoon,” says the narrator.
