[TUES] - Comedy Masala ft. AZEEM BANATWALLA (INDIA) | seen on Amazon Prime, NDTV, ABC
One of India's most popular comedians, AZEEM BANATWALLA (seen on Amazon Prime, NDTV & ABC) will headline TWO shows in SINGAPORE!
Azeem Banatwalla is a comedian, Indian and Muslim. He never asked to be any of these things. But as it turns out, he’s all of them. Triple Threat is Azeem Banatwalla’s debut show at Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Through humour and satire he attempts to solve a crisis of identity that affects millions (or maybe just himself); with observations and stories that should be more informative (but ultimately less entertaining) than TV news debates.
