The experience of being India’s Laughter Champion was incredible. I have been a part of so many shows in the past, but the experience here is completely different. I am learning more and more and people take years to learn but through ILC I have to learn in 2/3 months. There are so many experienced people working on the show. We work on the script and there are different stages that our script goes through before we do the final act. We got 11/12 pages of script that we had to prepare and then we had to present it on stage on such a big platform. This was one of the best experiences of my life and I got so much love from the people and the audience. I never knew I would be able to expand my boundaries.”
