वन माइक स्टैंड

बढ़िया फिल्म!

OMS is a great and fresh concept that is also damn funny. It speaks to the audience by being real and exposing the process that goes on behind the scenes and is a welcome step. The show by Vishal Dadlani was extremely cool for bringing about an uncomfortable topic, something we don't generally engage with. The shows by Taapsee and Richa Chadha were weak as stand up performances while the ones by Bhuvan Bam and Vishal Dadlani were great. Getting in Kamra in the end was really funny (as a set) but very predictable with Shashi Tharoor being the main act. BUT Shashi Tharoor rocked the stage - nailed it completely. Sapan was great as always but the show lacked punch, in general.

Faye D'Souza is pathetic. It was a real pain to watch that episode. She was clearly stating her agenda under the cover of comedy which I think should not be the intend of the show.

The idea got me interested, and the people in it got me to watch it. These weren't professional comedians, and as far as first standups go,the sets were delightful. I liked the balance of training, writing and performances inside the episodes. The cast was well balanced as well, in my opinion - a youtuber, two actresses, a musician and a politician. I'd watch more if they made them. Too bad it's on behind a paywall: I would love to see more on youtube and such. Kunal Kamra's posture needs some serious work ffs.

I wasn't particularly keen to watch One MIC Stand when it appeared on Amazon Prime, until I read elsewhere about Shashi Tharoor's participation. So I watched just the Tharoor episode initially, which was indeed quite entertaining besides the novelty factor of featuring a popular politician . I did not intend to watch the remaining episodes until someone mentioned that they were all quite good, so last night I watched the lot. Bhuvan Bam's episode was the best after Tharoors, followed by Tapsee and Richa. Vishal Dadlani spoilt his episode by using F F F F F in just about every sentence, this really was not necessary and certainly detracted from any humourous quotient. I wonder if he can speak a single natural unscripted sentence without recourse to F. In Indian Idol, he manages to refrain :-) Overall, One MIC Stand is fairly good fun and definitely watchable.

Let's see what it says: "India's biggest actors, politicians, musicians and influencers are trained by top comedians to perform stand-up comedy for their very first time." >Biggest actors, politicians, musicians and influencers Basically the biggest losers in their respective fields trying to stay relevant. > Top comedians Yeah, sure, if you can laugh at them on account of being as pathetic as they are trying to still matter. If I remember correctly, one of these "top comedians" level of comedy was making a joke on a minister's appearance when his own face looks as if hair from below the equator has been manually attached to his head with a rather poor show of workmanship. Watch for the luls if you want to see a bunch of rejects trying to sound funny. It can be considered comedy under the "so bad it's good" category, I suppose.

Or up someone's ass, there is absolutely no comedy. A bunch of flop actors and comedians not even trying to do comedy. I'd have called them a bunch of Jokers but they don't even deserve that. Your time is more valuable than Amazon's money. Save yourself from the torture.

Shashi Tharoor has some serious sense of humor. His performance was the best out of the 5 celebrity performers. Bhuvan Bam's performance is at number 2 and then comes Taapsee Pannu's. Vishal Dadlani's was the worst. He forgot his lines multiple times and was using foul languages in every sentence, making it a vulgar comedy.

This series tells us about what it is to be a stand up comedian. I liked watching this show because I came to know about the different side of our beloved youtubers, actors and composers and their effort to be a stand up comedian. Thos show gives the respect and fame what an stand up artist should get and lovely watching them performing out of their comfort zone.

Bhuvan is the main man! Loved him! Rest everyone is trying to prove they are really big Celebrities! idiots!
