16: Rajen Prabhu Part 4/6 - On First Love : Standup Routines and Quizzing - a podcast by CXO Life

In this segment, Rajen takes us through his first love of quizzing and introduces us to his once-cherished dream of becoming a standup comedian. Rajen shares how he had tasted a ‘modicum of success’ in Chennai rotary clubs where he found himself an enthusiastic audience among middle-aged women who would fawn over his standup routines which were a mix of quizzing and comedy. Though the move to Singapore resulted in a cooling down of this passion, Rajen still hopes to fan it alive someday especially with his inner Sumo within constantly goading him to view life in all its splendid humor. Rajen also shares his views on the current Indian standup comedy scene and how it has come a long way from mimicry and narrating jokes out of a book.
Happy Listening!
