Suman Kumar is a novelist, movie writer, and a stand-up comedian. He is the author of Ranga Half-Pants .
On a beautiful, balmy evening on May 18, 2015, at Take 5, Indira Nagar I was watching an open-mic comedy session in progress. I looked at my friend and said,
‘These guys suck!’
My friend said, ‘So you think you’re funnier than them?’
‘Of course!’ I said.
My friend dared me (and another friend who was siding with me) to do an open-mic spot and prove that I was funnier. Thus started my journey as a stand-up comedian. Thanks to Bangalore Comedy Club. Oh yeah, I bombed so hard that night I got hooked.
I did my first real show in October, 2015. Ever since, I have started touring with my solo show Mr. Mommy. I am about to put videos out. I continue to bomb like a boss. Like the great philosoper Suhas said, ‘It’s the jourrrrneeeeeeey!’
