Sydney Comedy Festival 2024


this. just this. i did something I’ve never been able to do my whole life in front of a sold out crowd at the @sydneycomedyfestival. my first and debut stand up comedy set. i’m the hardest person on myself and while i may seem confident on the outside, I spend a lot of my time absolutely crapping myself with the things i do (also, literally). but i wake up this morning with complete gratitude but also pride in myself that i actually DID THIS. i am absolutely blown away by the courage, talent and incredible comedians that form @brownwomencomedy and have toured nationally who have inspired me too, to just fkn do it. i owe you more than you know and the way you enveloped me in kindness last night after meeting me for the first time @kruharale @silvascreens @runiversal.studios @helloitskripa @guneet_ofkaurse i will never forget. this encouraging and deep rooted loving community is exactly what i adore in the arts community and what ultimately inspires and lifts so many women - which to me is what it’s all about. which brings me to @daizymaan who is the founder of @brownwomencomedy but has literally been bringing women together in joy and purpose for so many years, i just cannot look up to you more for creating movements in this country and beyond. thank you for giving me this opportunity. my childhood besties @jaskaur21 and @prabha_nanda you absolutely make me cry for the love and support you show me in what i do and beyond - even though the show was completely sold out, you sneaky squirrels found a way to surprise me and turn up. thank you @preethzzz. last of all thank you the love of my life @ankurandsharon who always without question (but maybe sometimes lectures like ma dad) my life choices and the crazy things i pursue. i’m so sorry for the empathetic stress i give you all the time when i push the limits! i acknowledge that this is a rough time for so many across the world and i never forget this, in everything i do. i’ve actively been seeking moments of joy to share with others which is a big part of why i did this. sometimes if you don’t laugh, you cry right? as some of you know, this is the year of my “fuck it, bucket list”. soooooo what’s next?
