But seriously? If you enjoy witty puns and a fresh perspective on some of the most current issues facing the country, the Indian Comedy Debate might pique your interest. It offers a serious a look at hard-hitting issues, delicate concerns and deep-rooted problems including discussions on the Tata Nano, the Aadhar card, Arnab Goswami, and more. The cast will include Anuvab Pal, Rajneesh Kapoor, Varun Grover, Adhiraj Singh and others.
Magic and laughs: In a unique mix of magic and comedy, The Wizard Wars will showcase a supernatural war that rages across the realms where a grand magician will face off against a mind-numbing mentalist to win the love of the crowd.
Sorabh, unplugged: Sorabh Pant's popular stand-up comedy show will return with 30 minutes of brand new material, including Pant drinking alcohol in Gujarat and explaining precisely why Indians travelled all the way to Mars, among other things.
Also do not miss the popular satirical black comedy, Black with âEqual', that takes an unsentimental look at contemporary society, in just four scenes.
