As one of the best performers on Amazon Prime Video's comedy hunt, Comicstaan, Rahul Dua is one of the brightest young comics in the country today! Talk about an average human being and Rahul fits the bill just right, barring a win at Comedy Central’s Chuckle Hunt, NDTV’s Rising Stars of Comedy 2016, Host at NDTV’s Chuppa Rustam and Actor at Hyundai’s Grandi10 digital campaign. He manages to be insecure, under- confident and loud at the same time. His jokes are as bad as his financial state of affairs and comedy career as unsuccessful as his Engineering and MBA stints.
