Zakir Khan: Photo Kheechani Nahi Aati
In this standup piece, the sakth launda wonders how girls manage to take pictures perfectly everytime, and why guys suck at it. There's an Aasish Nehra batting skills reference in there too.
Time: 6:20
Kenny Sebastian: Goa
What, you haven't seen Kenny's Amazon special yet? Tsk tsk. No matter, you were probably too busy making up stories in Goa.
Time: 2:00
Watch Kenny's special on Amazon Prime Video.
Sourav Ghosh: Criminals
He goes all dark on us. "Just once, I want to see a murder" and "I admire criminals" are not exactly lines of cheerfulness (and some might say, sanity). But he has his reasons. Watch right till the end.
Time: 9:45
Gaurav Kapoor: Follow Your Dreams
In this hilarious piece, Gaurav lampoons those who 'follow their passions', outrages over how 'traveling' can be a job and fast forwards to a time when aspiring to be an engineer will become offbeat.
Time: 5:02
Them Boxer Shorts: The Ex
For those machans who are missing Starboyz, here's a delightfully random south Indian-accented sketch featuring Naveen, Mani and Rahul. Bonus points if you spot the Wilbur Sargunaraj tee shirt.
Time: 4:30
Put Chutney: The Campus Interview
This hilarious sketch outlines the problem every mechanical engineer applying for a software job would have gone through. It's in Tamil, but that just makes it all the more hilarious (switch on subtitles).
Time: 8:53
José Covaco: Arnab's Letter to Sonu Nigam
Someone wrote a letter. Someone shaved his head. Someone made a spoof. Who did what (after all, the nation wants to know)? Check this short video.

SnG: How To Comedy? Feat. Vir Das
And finally, while not a comedy video as such, if the 'scene' remotely interests you, this insightful (and candid, and often dirty) interview with scene legend Vir Das will make your day. It'll make you laugh as well. Plus, teasers on Vir's upcoming Netflix special!
