The 6 Most Famous And Funniest Stand-Up Comedians in India

In today’s stressful life, one can find it difficult to find pure moments of joy and laughter. But as the saying goes, “A day without laughter is a day wasted”. While movies and series have their own place in the entertainment industry, stand-up comedians have been gaining immense popularity in the last few years. Here is a list of the funniest stand-up comedians in India who will surely fill your day with laughter and positivity for life.

They establish a connection with the audience by introducing unique concepts and viewpoints that make their audience smile and laugh.

The Top 6 Funniest Stand-Up Comedians in India:

1. Zakir Khan

With over 7 million subscribers on YouTube, Zakir Khan easily tops this list. He is well-known for his amusing comments on small-town life, love, and heartbreak. He gained a lot of popularity in 2012 after participating in the humorous reality series “India’s Best Dramebaaz” and winning Comedy Central.

Following his appearance on AIB Diwas in 2016, Zakir made headlines and quickly rose to become what AIB creator Tanmay Bhat calls “The biggest stand-up comedy act in India.” In addition, he is well-known for his comedic specials like “Chacha Vidhayak Hai Hamare”, a podcast called “Umeed,” and the highly regarded Amazon Prime series “Kaksha Gyarvi”.

2. Kapil Sharma

If you haven’t watched or heard of the Kapil Sharma Show, then you are really missing out on life. Although he does not perform stand-up comedy acts regularly, we believe this list would be incomplete without mentioning his name. Whether progressive or not, this man is quite funny. The fact that he has received five Indian Television Academy Awards speaks volumes. Check out Kapil Sharma’s performance if you dislike contemporary and progressive comedy. He won’t disappoint you, for sure!

3. Aakash Gupta

“Excuse me, brother… Brother, Edhar.” We hope this reminds you of something. If not, then this is one of the lines that really broke records on social media! While initially, Aakash didn’t gain a lot of popularity, now, with an impressive one million Instagram followers, this person is clearly doing something great! Indeed, he appears sullen all the time, but it’s not due to his facial features.

He takes his humour far too seriously, which is why he might look grumpy. A peculiar entertainer whose humour primarily stems from observation, Aakash always naturally made people laugh. He co-won the second season of the stand-up comedy competition TV show Comicstaan, and we know that this is just the beginning!

A well-known stand-up comedian in India, Abhishek Upmanyu has over 4 million subscribers on YouTube and 1.4 million followers on Instagram. Abhishek takes you on an entertaining tour of life’s twists and absurdities. He offers an unconventional perspective on our world by examining anything from relationships and technology to Indian culture and more with his own observational humour. Following his rise to popularity, Abhishek performed in numerous stand-up comedy shows in India as well as abroad, which further solidified his status as a youth idol.

5. Aditi Mittal

Aditi Mittal happens to be Abhishek Upmanyu’s favourite female stand comedian, and quite impressively, she is also one of the first female stand-up comedians in India. Aditi pioneered the trend by performing stand-up comedy acts even before they were popular in India.

The Times of India has ranked Mittal among the country’s “Top 10 Stand-up comedians”. She has conducted stand-up comedy workshops at London’s Soho Theatre and throughout India. Now, even her students are becoming successful and accomplished comedians. She is an inspiration for many!

6. Aishwarya Mohanraj

This girl certainly deserves a place on the list of the funniest female comedians India has ever had the opportunity to see. Her exceptional confidence and good comedic timing helped her secure a slot among the top 10 comedians on Comicstaan, Season 1. She has since written for television programs like One Mic Stand, Son of Abish, Behti Naak, On Air with AIB, and Comicstaan S02. Millions of people have viewed her work online, particularly on her stand-up and sketch-filled YouTube page. They firmly establish her as a comic phenomenon.
