Zakir Khan live in Muscat, Oman

To say that Zakir Khan is just a popular stand-up comedian would be to miss his larger impact entirely. His is the most unlikely of stories - a college drop-out from Indore whose preferred medium is Hindi, breaking into an English-dominated scene. Zakir is one of the most loved and celebrated stand-up comedians in India. From winning the title of 'India's Best Stand Up' in a 2012 Comedy Central show to selling 100,000 tickets across 72 cities in 2019 alone, his has been an incredible journey.

Zakir’s approach to comedy is anecdotal, personal, and heartfelt, and his delivery is poetic and rustic at the same time. His appeal lies in his reliability - he has often said he used humour as a shield when bullied as a child, and his stories are punctuated with phrases that have become catchphrases, including the iconic ‘sakht launda’.
