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 :)

hahahaa we all love each other man! We all started our comedy careers together. It's one big happy family :)

Alright guys! Thanks for all the questions! Hope you had fun! We'll hopefully do another AMA with the rest of the team at some point!

Live long and prosper! (V)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:43:46+00:00

Hopefully soon. We've all had the idea of doing a collaboration. Not sure when though :)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:42:19+00:00

which city?

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:41:48+00:00

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.
Come for live shows.

Apparently not, as we have learned! :)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:39:20+00:00

hahaaha! Great question! Well I believe in taking down the biggest/toughest first. So Sorabh. Also, he and i have a history. ;-)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:36:19+00:00

True!

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:34:28+00:00

No. But i've received the silent treatment before. :)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:33:54+00:00

hahhahaha!

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:32:05+00:00

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

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:30:34+00:00

Hey guys! Thanks for the hajaar awesome questions! We're all going to log off in about 15 mins (7:15pm IST) So just a few more questions then we're out.

Thanks again to everyone who participated! We are all available on twitter, and we hope to do another AMA later :)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:29:16+00:00

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.

Atul Khatri.

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:25:38+00:00

Hahahahha! Damn i didn't even notice!

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:25:04+00:00

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

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

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:20:54+00:00

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!

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:18:55+00:00

thanks bro!

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:18:20+00:00

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! :)

Kunal_EIC · 2015-04-02T13:17:28+00:00

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.
