The experience of being on the India’s Laughter Champion has been incredible. I have been part of so many shows in the past, but the experience here is totally different. I am getting to learn so much and people take years to learn but through ILC I’ve got to learn in 2/3 months. There are so many experienced people working on the show. We work on scripts and there are different levels that our scripts go through before we perform the final act. We get 11/12 pages of scripts that we have to prepare and then we have to present it on stage on such a big platform. This is one of the best experiences of my life and I am getting so much love from people and the audience. I never knew I would be able to stretch my boundaries.”
