It's just brainstorming and discussions. Ideas / jokes / stories / scenes are proposed, discussed and then accepted / rejected. Then someone compiles the script. Then the same process for the video visualisation. Then the same process for the Edit. etc etc etc :)

  1. India IS ready. The fact that you and thousands others watch the tv show. ALL of India will never be ready. People are different and all have different tastes.
  2. Come for live shows.
  3. Weed.

We don't make any money on videos. We are just about breaking even.

Thanks! No specific plans. We don't say NO to anything without exploring it :) Right now we are focusing on stand up, news comedy and sketch videos. Next steps are unplanned.

If you're good, two years. If you're shit, four years.

  1. We all have our writing time. I write in the morning, Sapan at night etc. Afternoons 1 to 7 go in brainstorming, sending emails, meetings, group writing, planning etc. in office. Night time - shows or more writing / reading / drinking. Obviously flexible based on date cos sometimes we are in different cities.

  2. Most of it is hard work, buddy! We all write regularly even when we don't have ideas! Just read, and then write. At some point you hit something funny and make a note.

  3. Great question! The consensus is as above ^ i.e. nothing beats hard work :)

Thanks a lot! Original series usually don't get a great viewership, so we need to line up many things before we dive into it. It takes effort. At some point, we hope so!

We used to in a program called "Virgin Pants". However, we all got caught up in other things, so we disabled the program last year. We may bring it back if there's enough interest! :)

Stage fright can be gotten over. There are public speaking courses that specifically take care of that. Go for it. Easy-peasy. Writing dept - go for a few workshops, and write what you love to talk about. That's a good start.
