Comedy in India has seen its own evolution and flavours. From the classic of Johnny Walker, to the antiques of Johnny Lever, to the cheap ones of 80s, and finally the doubling of heroes as comic characters in the 2000s. Still, just when we thought that the genre was dying in the last few years, some quite interesting ways to tickle our funny bone came up. The term “stand-up comedy” arrived in regular day to day entertainment, and right from television reality shows to YouTube channels, these stars slowly yet steadily created a space for themselves. Here are some of the wittiest people who have created channels on YouTube to make our lives much less mundane with their antics and jokes.
Hollyshit
Well, well, well. From Bollywood to politics, this guy has a funny take on everything, and you just can’t help ROFLing. Oh yes, and this guy is a doctor.
Biswa Kalyan Rath
Do you know why bachelors hate Pomegranate and love bananas? Ask Biswa, the next-door-guy from Odisha, who can make you laugh with the simplest of things.
Kenny Sebastian
A “middle-class” Indian guy, who does not know how to woo a girl and dance. Subscribe to his channels and watch as he explains this life bit by bit. We bet you won’t be able to sit still.
Being Indian
Warning: This is not for you if you are someone who gets offended easily.
Defining the characteristic traits of Mumbai girl, Delhi boy in Mumbai, U.P. ka bhaiya, and anything and everything, this channel is your total entertainment material.
Kanan Gill
His “Pretentious Movie Reviews” with Biswa can get anyone off the rocker. Stripping some “real gems” of Indian Cinema reel by reel, these are a treat for your laughing buds.
Mania Ki Duniya
Watch as deadliest of jokes find their formula in Bollywood songs. The animation and voices behind the toons, along with their logic is simply going to crack you up.
Watch these and of you know of any others, drop us a comment, and we can share the laughter too.
