This guy is seriously funny

I hired Krish to entertain a New Years Party for mostly South Asian patrons. While this crowd is not really used to stand-up comedy (they prefer the 'mimicry' 'of Bollywood actors), Krish kept them engaged and entertained. He even handled kids walking up to him with grace and humor. His show "Fork full of noodles" is very poignant. Krish is a great stand-up comedian who will keep audiences of any background laughing and nodding.

What to expect

I'm a socially conscious performer that addresses issues in today's socio-political climate. I'm a professional, full time tour Stand Up Comedian and Writer so you can expect a professional show. I also hangout and talk to folks at the gig about various topics.
I can also write specific material, but the charge for that will be higher.
