From starting a YouTube channel in 2011 to performing stand-up comedy in multiple cities including Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi and London (UK), Karunesh has earned immense recognition among stand-up comedy lovers. The Mumbai-based comedian is also a writer and performer at one of India’s leading comedy consultancies, named Weird Comedy. Several times, he has acted as the opening act for the live shows of Indian comedian, Vir Das. He has also performed at several comedy festivals, such as Weerdas Pajama (2015), which featured Raju Srivastava and Johnny Lever, and at the Bengaluru Comedy Festival 2016.

Stand-up comedy special
In 2016, Karunesh performed his first stand-up comedy show ‘Paka Mat Na Mote’ in Hyderabad, India.
In 2019, his second comedy special titled ‘Pata Nahi Par Bolna Hai’ came out on Amazon Prime. In this show, Karunesh told how his biggest fear is turning into a typical Indian uncle. He presented his third stand-up special comedy show in 2021 titled ‘Alas, Obesity, Nervousness’.
Talking about how he came up with the name ‘Alas, Obesity, Anxiety’ for the show, Karunesh said,
This name is part of the joke punch line of the show itself. I wrote the entire show, we shot it and while we were editing it, I was sitting with the director and editor of the show, who suggested I name it ‘Ash, Fat, Nervous’. The first part of the show is about my parents and the second part is about my relationship with my girlfriend.
he adds,
I think it happened subconsciously because I wrote this show during the pandemic. At the same time, it comes from striving to tell my story, which needs to be truly authentic and unique on stage. So I think, these 3 words can describe the experiences of a lot of people during the pandemic.”
His love of procrastination (“Meri hobby hai lena… aur junoon bhi”) led him to his fourth comedy special ‘Adrak Ka Swad’, which he premiered in 2021.
