00:00So brother, why did you go to jail?

00:03Because of a big robbery.

00:07And brother, you?

00:08Murder, murder.

00:10And brother, you?

00:11I was telling a joke.

00:24Will you eat bhel?

00:25No, I won't.

00:26Will you eat bhel?

00:27No, I won't.

00:28Will you go to jail?

00:29No, I won't.

00:29Will you eat bhel?

00:58Because they think that we have done something really bad.

01:05Before I speak or write anything, I think.

01:08I am very scared for my family.

01:11I have become close to my family.

01:12I still feel like, what do I know tomorrow?

01:15Maybe I will be here or not.

01:17Like that, that has settled in me.

01:19That you can go to jail anytime in life.

01:21Because it was never expected that I would go to jail.

01:25If you commit a crime, you get a click in your brain that you can go to jail.

01:31I didn't do anything like that.

01:32I didn't even think about going to jail.

01:40We have a factory here in Cucumber.

01:42I worked there for some time.

01:44Actually, there are some installments.

01:46And there were some expenses when I was inside.

01:49Because of this, I had to do it for some time.

01:56I am doing it because I can survive until I can start comedy again.

02:06A lot of people have called me to help.

02:09A lot of people have spoken.

02:10But I think I don't need financial help.

02:12I want my work back.

02:14Because I know I can earn money from it.

02:16And only my work can give me food all my life.

02:26For a big comic, when a big comic comes to our city.

02:30The local comic here performs 5 minutes before that.

02:34Sets the vibe and then calls him.

02:37So that was my job that day.

02:38I opened my spot for 5 minutes and got down.

02:41My emotions went to the stage.

02:56Let me tell you about myself.

02:58My content is in Chalan Diary.

03:00My video is there.

03:02That video was recorded from my phone.

03:04The same video is there.

03:06And I have only talked about premarital sex.

03:09I haven't used any religious term.

03:11I haven't taken the name of any God or Goddess.

03:16You spoiled the tea.

03:18You are coming from there, right?

03:20You should get tea from there.

03:22You should get tea from there.
