Indian Comedians On Youtube Who Will Leave You Literally Rolling On The Floor Laughing

1. Kunal Kamra

For comedians in India to turn to political material comes with a cost. And that cost includes getting thrown out of your house by the landlord and getting death threats but that hasn't stopped Kunal Kamra from creating a craze amongst his followers. There are celebrities who have appreciated his work privately but not publically, fellow comedians have refrained from acknowledging him on Social Media AND he's been canceled from shows because of a politician turning up for it. But who is a comedian if he doesn't take it in stride? He also runs a Podcast called Shut Up Ya Kunal’, where he calls people in politics as well as newsmakers for a civil discussion on issues. Follow him if you believe his stand-up acts are your cup of tea but make sure to NOT take offense.

10. Biswa Kalyan 

Biswa's popularity became prominent because of his sarcastic way of portraying his opinions in the funniest style possible. His sarcasm definitely took him a look way ahead with his "Mast Admi" memes flooding over Facebook. He was identified through Pretentious Movies Reviews which went viral on the internet which gave a Biswa an amazing opportunity to flourish as an individual artist too and come up with his own stand-up shows. Keeping that aside we totally agree nothing can beat the humorous duo of his fellow comedian Kanan and Biswa on a stage together.

18. Neeti Palta

Neeti brings to the English stand up comedy scene in India what it sorely lacks – a female perspective. Therefore she has the unique advantage of being able to present a female point of view on a variety of subjects from the life of a woman in India, Indian idiosyncrasies, to daily irritants, current affairs, etc, while indulging in a spot of poking fun at men. With a writing background in advertising and TV, she draws influences from real-life experiences, humans and our Indian innateness.
