Shashwat Maheshwari Comedy Person by MORPH._Code

Shashwat Maheshwari, has been around telling jokes for close to a decade. He’s featured on NDTV’s Rising Starts of Comedy and the first season of Amazon Prime Video’s Comicstaan. He’s been part of multiple comedy festivals like Weirdass Pyjama Festival and Bengaluru Comedy Festival. He’s been a writer with some big channels like Vice, ScoopWhoop, and FilterCopy. He’s also a Hindi Play-by-play Commentator for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) on Sony. He throws a mean punchline while he performs in Bombay very often. Catch him be Comedy Person with his Comedy Jokes at Koota.

Hosted by none other than Shankar Chugani, who has been at Koota a couple of times before, this is an event you don’t want to miss.

Shankar Chugani is a stand-up comic based in Bangalore. He has been performing across the country for the last 6 years. You may have seen him on Amazon Prime’s Comicstaan season 1 or at Koota when we launched Malhar Laugh Club. He has been accused of causing severe stomach and jaw pains by Malhar residents. Over the last 6 years, Shankar’s high-energy performances have entertained people across the country – from small open mics to massive audiences in Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, and Pune.

The opening act is by Sandeep Nanu, who is our resident bird photographer and a recent ethical snake rescuer. A believer in a perfect work-life balance (questionable considering very few at Malhar have seen him working), he can be found on the badminton court or entertaining kids with his card tricks when he is not at work. He is the founder of the Malhar Laugh Club incubated here at Koota with 10 successful shows since its inception.
