I quit my job at a food testing and safety laboratory to become a comedian.
00:06
Look at me, I'm talking. This, what I'm talking is overrated. Have coffee. Don't talk.
00:20
I studied food science, so I'm a food nerd generally.
00:23
So, I liked it. It was a nice, comfortable life where there was a salary coming in.
00:27
It wasn't a high-paying job, but it was still comfortable.
00:39
Just, I don't think it satisfied my craving for attention,
00:43
which is something comedy does because you're on stage and everyone's giving you validation.
00:47
I'll do my job and I'll do this. So, I used to finish my work and then I used to go for improv rehearsal.
01:05
Then it got too much, the job plus all three.
01:07
So, and I started making a little bit of money and at that time I was so overconfident.
01:11
I'm like, you know, I'm going to quit my job. I'm going to just take my 30,000 rupees and go to Bombay and kill it.
01:15
And I like spent the money in like half an hour, I think.
01:23
It's a team sport and I was doing something else. Everyone was doing something else.
01:26
Everyone was just happy I survived. Everyone was just happy I didn't faint or collapse or anything.
01:45
I don't think children are cute and adorable. Children are a**hole.
01:55
I was a**hole as a child. I was oversmart.
01:57
I think I was watching Humsaat Saad and Humsaat Saad's kids and I was like, why are these kids so happy?
02:02
They're always happy. They keep eating chocolate.
02:04
When we were kids, we were quite, I was quite painful.
02:07
I was very like, I was going and telling my neighbors, you know, my mom beats my dad.
02:11
Neighbors were like, what?
02:13
I was this kid who was, you know, the two-haired girl wearing a ribbon.
02:18
Slightly, not slightly, a very big girl.
02:20
You have this avatar in school, so we won't let you go.
02:22
Come kids, bully other kids.
02:24
So I'm like, this is a reaction video to everybody as Bhaiti for me.
02:28
So like there were a bunch of things.
02:30
But also just mainly I just wanted to show an honest child and an honest child can say anything and get away.
02:35
Like even if I get a case, I'm like, the kid is speaking guys, I'm not speaking.
02:39
It's very bad.
02:43
My mom's reacted very violently to one of the sketches where I played a vagina.
03:02
That she was like, what's happening here?
03:04
But otherwise, I think my mom has a lot of fun watching me.
03:07
My father loves Bhaiti Naag.
03:09
Oh my God, he's such a Bhaiti Naag fan.
03:13
Two weeks ago, I think I pitched a show to one of the leading OTTs and the feedback was very confusing.
03:24
Like it made me, it's almost like they thought I'm a baby or a fetus.
03:29
So the feedback was extremely bleh.
03:32
So on that day, I was like, should I quit?
03:35
Should I just go back to Food Lab?
03:36
Maybe that's the best way to do this.
03:43
What will they call me that my mom and the world hasn't called me?
03:47
That they'll call me a two-bit troll.
03:49
What will they call me?
03:50
They'll call me fat, they'll call me a buffalo.
03:52
Call me, call me.
03:54
It doesn't matter.
03:55
It doesn't hurt me when someone is fat-shaming online.
03:57
I'm like, what else can I expect from them?
03:59
Also, just my trolls are very predictable.
04:02
Lose weight.
04:04
Eat less.
04:05
I'm like, oh no.
04:07
My reaction is not how dare, my reaction is...
04:14
If everything goes well and everyone likes it, then God knows I'll be in here and in Hollywood.
04:18
That'll be crazy.
