Comedy but in India 🤐

Comedy but in India 🤐- Grapevine

Was disappointed with most of the audience that volunteered to be on stage @ TechRoastShow in Bangalore yesterday. I mean, why go on the stage if do not have anything interesting to say? Self-awareness anybody? Makes it a meh experience for everybody. If not particularly funny, you should at least be articulate. 

Anyway, kudos for the courage. It is not easy being on stage.

Boring audience at Tech Roast show

Director of Engineering

Half of the show is just maa-bhen ki gaali (vulgar and abusive words), every video hitting millions of views on YT and is trending too.

I would never like my kids to find such videos from the trending YT page or even I wouldn't like my gen-Z son/daughter exposed to such videos. There is just too much vulgar and offensive content passed off as comedy and entertainment all over the place these days.

What are your thoughts on Samay Raina's show on YT - India's got latent?

try it, you might find most videos way below average

If you ever want to judge whether a stand up comedy video is actually funny or not, don't watch it, just listen to it.

Those who follow adult animated series know that many hit series (such as South Park, Family Guy, The Simpsons) have been running for well over 20 + seasons.
I was just wondering when an Indian series would come up here in India (imo it would have to be a web series given then niche in India).

Given the recent advances in AI, the animation part is becoming relatively easier to animate than a few years ago, so it’s just a matter of time our creators start producing these.

P.S. My personal favourite is South Park ❤️

Starting a small tradition of our own on Boxing Day: a roast of the Indian startup ecosystem!

Through the year, have seen some of the most Top Kek comments here, and I thought it’d be nice to do this for fun! 

Let’s keep it in good jest, no getting personal 🫣
Looking forward to some really creative burns!

PS: I do realize there’s no real correlation between Boxing Day and actual boxing :)

Boxing Day: A roast of Indian Startups 🥊

A very harsh year indeed 
 Almost 261k techies got laid off, and only 261 got laid :/ 
  
 (Sorry)

Founder

I think the shark tank is fake. Why would people sell 2% or 5% of their company for a few laks or 1 crore?. I don't understand.  In S3 they are talking about royalty. I have worked with a few such royalty cases. Most of the time royalty is paid only when there is a tech transfer or some sort of IP which is clearly linked to the sales generated. 
Why would I pay an investor royalty when there is no clarity or measurable transfer of material benefits?. 
Some of them are already making profits. The money they raised is just a quarterly profit. Why would I sell a good stake for funds that will not even help me expand within the state?
In S1 ashneer would make a comment - "no one is going to help you. You are responsible for making your business".  I totally agree with than statement. Having worked with a few investors, I can say they don't help much beyond asking for status. 
They are making a fool of us.

Starting to feel Shark tank is fake.

I asked GPT to make a joke on Delhi people. And here’s the cringe it returned: 

"When you tell a Delhi people to take a break, but they're already running on CTRL+ALT+DELhi time."

Why be nice to random anonymous people. 

Why are there not many really jezebel trolls on grapevine. 

The reason twitter is better. Indians are too timid mostly.

Just trying to understand which influencer do you love and why? Could be an artist/entertainer/knowledge influencer on any social media platform.
