Anatomy of Awkward (2018)

Fusing his musical and stand-up chops, Kenny Sebastian gets analytical about frumpy footwear, flightless birds and his fear of not being funny enough.

In this show, Neville narrates stories about his struggles with his age, bring orphaned, adulthood, death, depression, divorce and suicide. This isn't the only thing that doesn't make it a regular stand up special, it's also that he's doing sitting down. He treats his audience like is therapist and pretty much leaves them bereft of hope but bloated with laughter. It's dark, it's poignant, it's melancholic but it's hilarious. Considered one of the comics with the darkest material in India, Neville doesn't disappoint. The topics he deals with are narrated anecdotally, making them approachable. He doesn't make fun of them; he makes fun about them. Afflictions, vulnerabilities and flaws are a part of human beings and Neville takes his feelings about them, analyses and then presents them. It's a perspective of someone who is going through them. And you see him crumble and rise with each story, you can also see him going downhill.

Sketchy Behaviour is an absurd sketch comedy show filmed live in front of a largely captive audience in Mumbai. Described as hilarious, complex, stupid, irritating (and 'sardonic' by one lady in Goa) the show veers in and out of the familiar and the bizarre with equal comfort. A knee-slapping head-scratching torrent of jokes, characters and self-aware comedy that successfully spent the entire budget that was available to spend on the show. Featuring six very silly live sketches, stitched together by a much sillier story about the nature of art itself and bookended by extremely silly and unnecessary opening and closing, Sketchy Behaviour is truly a work of something. KananGill and Kenneth Sebastian float through the aether of space (reminiscent of another show on a rival streaming platform) and try to figure out why their souls can't rest in peace. They realise that the key to this lies in the sketch comedy show they did, they then look through the various sketches in the show to find any clues that could help their situation and let them move on to the afterlife. Will they find the answers they're looking for? Yes. But you'll have fun watching it probably. And if you don't, maybe that says more about you than it does about the show. Why can't you enjoy anything anymore? When did you become so bitter? The sketches feature songs about murders, talking chairs, time travel, exorcisms and much more (two more). Complex set and prop changes were done swiftly to maintain a seamless live experience for the audience at great personal expense to the creators of the show, which they realised was totally unnecessary when they were editing the show and it is especially paining them to write this now. The show is a culmination of a very old dream of its creatorsKananand Kenneth, and all the weirdness in show in completely intentional. For the optimal viewing experience, ask someone else to watch the show and describe it to you. This is the mandatory synopsislength.

If you are easily offended by jokes, the result is more jokes. Nothing in life is black and white, except Take It Easy, Anirban Dasgupta's stand-up special. His material deals with hate and love in the hostile internet era, and why both these intense emotions need to take it easy. This hour-long set captures Anirban trying to comprehend events from the past year at home and at work; events he would rather forget unless he wrote jokes on them. In 2017, Anirban had to take down a clip that contained his stand-up set on people from Kolkata and their reaction to one of the most controversial mysteries in the nation's history. This added to India's ever growing list of frivolous cases of offense on the internet. Comedians currently have to seriously self-censor their material to protect their interests in a hostile and frenzied climate. Anirban narrates this eye-opening experience from the year gone by and explores the idea of absolute freedom of expression. He also tries to find a solution to this never-ending problem of outrage over everything. He shares personal stories from the last year and attempts to explain why not having kids is the correct choice for this generation. He hopes his family sees the show to understand him. Anirban Dasgupta is a comedian and writer from Kolkata now based in Mumbai. He has been doing stand-up for the last five years, has performed extensively across the country and is a regular headliner at the top comedy clubs and properties of India. Take It Easy was performed live on tour across the country from November 2017 to June 2018.

"Taxi! Taxi!" is a social comedy set in the metropolitan city-state of Singapore, told through the encounters of two characters who are in what is widely perceived as the most sociable profession on the island taxi drivers. Inspired by famed blogger Dr Cai Mingjie's real life accounts as a taxi driver in his bestseller "Diary Of A Taxi Driver: True Stories From Singapore's Most Educated Cabdriver", the movie follows the trials and tribulations of a retrenched microbiology scientist, Professor Chua, as he turns to taxi driving after several failed job attempts. Along the way, he befriends (although they didn't quite start off as friends from the get-go) a veteran taxi driver, Ah Tau.
