What separates stand-up artiste Zakir Khan from his contemporaries is his tremendous ability to connect with the audience and his personalized approach to telling stories laced with a very robust sense of humour. If you have seen his earlier special or even his YouTube videos, you would realise Khan always drops that one moment during the gig which makes you emotional or teleports you back in time, he has cranked it up a notch in his latest special titled `Tathastu`.
He has an innate ability to push the audience on the edge and make them tear up a little before pulling the strings again to give them a laughter induced stomach pain, all within a few moments. The relatability, as it is known in stand-up circles, is something that comes naturally to him and he puts it to good use in `Tathastu`, which came into existence because of his grandfather. Zakir is the grandson of the late veteran Sarangi player and Padma Shri awardee, Ustad Moinuddin Khan. He comes from a family of noted musicians who belong to the Jaipur gharana.
