Скачать или смотреть Chapter 2 || Zakir Khan & Tanmay Bhat on Transformation, Success & Vulnerability || Episode 4

Hello! Welcome back to the #Chapter2 Podcast. I'm excited to bring you the fourth episode featuring two titans of Indian comedy, Tanmay Bhat and Zakir Khan!

We've watched these two redefine the landscape of Indian comedy, pushing boundaries and inspiring a whole new generation of comedians. It takes immense self-respect to take a joke, make a joke, or be a joke, and these two help us understand why and how in this episode.

We explore the nuances of male friendships, tragic-comedy, the ‘business’ of being funny and much more. Their stories of entering the comedy scene are both inspiring and heartfelt – a testament to their perseverance and talent.

Tanmay opens up about his physical transformation and evolving self-image, while Zakir shares his experiences of blazing trails for up-and-coming comedians. There’s a fun segment, where we play a game with these comedians, to understand their more vulnerable sides.

Getting to know these two better has been an absolute delight. Zakir is a man of complete clarity and depth, offering insights that stick with you long after the laughter fades. And Tanmay? He's a full 'pookie,' and it's been great discovering this softer, newer side of him.

This conversation is a beautiful blend of humour, honesty, and heart. It's a celebration of friendship, personal growth, and the power of laughter to connect us all. I walked away from this chat feeling both, entertained and moved, and I hope you do too.
