“I hope that people don’t get upset but I won’t rule it out,” says Kunal Rao about his new stand-up comedy show, Digging The News, a news-based stand-up comedy show, where comedians such as Sapan Verma, Sahil Shah, Abish Mathew, Neville Shah and Atul Khatri along with Rao will address current affairs in their own unique inimitable styles.

“News comedy is not new in the country. There are a couple of TV shows based on this genre. We were looking for content that can be put on stage. We approached Charlotte (surname) from the Comedy Store who had a similar idea, so we combined forces,” shares Rao.
