Three Stand-Up Comedians From Kolkata You Can Watch This Week

Keep a lookout for these Kolkata stand-up comedians who will leave you in splits, tickle your funny bone and help you unwind with their sketches and improv.

Ayan specialises in observation comedy. If you’re looking to laugh about your adulting crisis, he’s who you should watch. Light-hearted, frivolous and casual, this voice-over artist by day will keep you giggling at night. We love his take on politics, demonetisation, and more.

Dry humour laced with casual condescension and wit, if you don’t mind laughing at yourself, Yasharoop will have you in splits. With topics ranging from religion to terrorism and college education, there’s nothing he doesn’t take a dig at. His infamous jokes about “being black and having a beard at the airport” hit all the humour notes.

A relative newbie on the scene, he is still finding his style. He describes himself as ‘sometimes funny’ but his comedy sketches on snippets of his life and personal experiences are totally relatable {and hilarious}.
