In today’s episode of Figuring Out, we have Aakash Gupta in conversation with Raj Shamani. Aakash is one of the most popular and loved comedians in India, having performed over 500 shows both domestically and internationally. In this episode, you'll get to see not just his funny side but also his candid side, where you’ll get to know the person behind all the jokes.

We talked about his childhood, how he wasn’t always confident but gradually developed confidence over the years, his passion for cricket and why he didn’t pursue it professionally, and how he eventually became a comedian. He shared the story of performing in front of the Indian cricket team and cracking jokes about Virat Kohli in his presence. We also discussed his journey to Comicstaan, how he got there, and how the show transformed his life.

Towards the end, we discussed the challenges he faced in his marriage and how he overcame them. We also explored the various ways he earns money in comedy, how much he makes from a comedy show and his biggest struggles. The conversation concluded with him talking about the comedians who inspired him the most and why Zakir Khan achieved such phenomenal success.
