Announcement 📣 NEW SUBREDDIT ComicCharcha !! {this might be for u if ur post r getting remove}

24 Upvotes

New Sub r/ComicCharcha.

Reason-

You have might noticed that many posts have been getting removed recently. This isn’t because the moderators have anything against anyone—it’s simply about keeping the subreddit aligned with its main purpose.

The goal of this community is to focus purely on stand-up comedy—whether it’s videos, specials, performances, or discussions directly related to stand-up. Posts about panel shows, random podcast clips, unrelated comparisons, or personal takes that don’t add value to stand-up discussions don’t fit the intent of this space.

Instead of overcrowding this subreddit with this kind of post, u can post this on new sub r/ComicCharcha. which freshly created or individual Comic sub.

This way, it creates separate spaces for both kinds of users—those who want focused stand-up comedy content like performances, specials, and videos, and those who enjoy broader discussions like memes, podcast clips, panel shows, or general comic-related conversations.

Hope u get the point that this space is purely for stand up comedy related posts and videos & created for upcoming comedians to post their standup videos or links to there latest video out on YouTube , so that they can reach the fans of comedy on this subreddit.

Announcement 📣 Selling 2 Tickets… to Common Sense 🎟️

10 Upvotes

Hey folks, Before anyone DMs us asking “kitne ka bhai?” — relax, this post isn’t about selling actual tickets !

We’ve been seeing a wave of posts like “Selling 2 for Zakir,” “Need Virli passes,” etc. And while we love your enthusiasm, this sub isn’t BookMyShow, OLX, or your college WhatsApp group.

Here’s the deal: 1. Too Many Scammers: Some “fans” out here selling fake tickets faster than you can say “Abey yaar!” 2. We Can’t Verify Anything: Mods aren’t Ticketmaster. We’ve got no tools to check who’s real or who’s trying to scam. 3. Official Eyes Are Watching: The community’s growing fast (thank you ❤️se), and organizers have asked us to remove resale posts or risk getting flagged.

So, let’s keep r/IndianStandUpComedy what it’s meant to be — a place to share jokes, clips, memes, and love for Indian stand-up, not a ticket bazaar.

👉 TL;DR: Don’t buy, sell, or request tickets here. Do share your favorite bits, new specials, or underrated comics instead.Message us if you think you’re a mod material..

Thanks for keeping it clean !

— Mod Team, r/IndianStandUpComedy 🎤

Bangla mein kurte ko “Punjabi” bolte hain. Ab imagine karo kisi Delhi wale ko shopping pe le jaana.
A clip from my stand-up bit, Do Punjabi Dikhao Toh.
What’s another completely normal phrase in your language that sounds hilariously wrong in another?

Question❓ Kaustubh defrauding live audience

243 Upvotes

This is the last set (standup comedians) of people I would have expected to be cheated by. So I attended Akal ke Ghode with my wife and won around 700 bucks as part of the winning group. We gave our upi IDs, filled the forms, and have also followed up multiple times - but still no response or action from Kaustubh or his team.

No one goes to these shows for money, but if this is a part of the show they have created and made us believe that we have won something, they should follow through on it.

I had been following Kaustubh since his early hustle days from the Patel Nagar studio but this is highly disappointing and forces me to unfollow his art.

Are there others in the same boat, with Kaustubh or any other show where comedians are not fulfilling what they promise.

Review ⭐ Abishek Kumar Enjoy Life Tour was funny but cheap shot at North Indians ruined it.

Post image
20 Upvotes

As a Tamil guy married to a North Indian, I was excited to take my wife to this show in Europe. At the start of the show, as the only North Indian in the crowd I was sad that she was attacked and felt unwelcome just for being there. There was a whole rap song with video where he sang looking at her. "Why are you here? You make terrible Tamil depiction in movies. Stop Hindi imposition". I understand smart political humour but this just felt like a cheap shot. This was her exact same experience while studying in uni too in TN. There always needs to be a balance and if there is no self deprecating humour about Chennai or TN it shows you still live in the 90s. None of his instagram posts were vitriolic or have political content either. The rest of the show was genuinely funny and he was occasionally translating some Tamil sentences for my wife too in Hindi.

Comedy is supposed to bring together all cultures and especially abroad where people live far away from their homes feel at home in your set. This is not even about political correctness.

PRACTICE by Manik Mahna.

I'm a huge fan of his observations. I mean the way he connects things... I want to learn this craft.

I laughed so hard on the "butt aren't controlled by Brain" bit.

A must watch!

Hi guys! I am starting my career in standup comedy in delhi. I usually write random thoughts and then sit with them. A problem i am facing is that now i have a lot of premises that are not related to each other. I am not able to write minimum material in a single premise for a set. Can someone help me on how exactly do we write a set?
