One Mic Stand

I have watched few episodes including Bhutan bam and Shashi tharoor one. It's a good attempt to show that stand-up comedy is not a cakewalk and it needs a lot of preparation and I loved to watch how people from other verticals tried it out. It's not hilarious every time but decent job by everyone.. Good concept, would be looking forward for second season.

Bhuvan Bam and shashi Tharoor were really good,but remaining 3 episodes are waste of time.Not just the guest even the comedian is below average in terms of performance.vishal episode is a disaster.

Amazon Prime has been instrumental in bringing the stand-up comedy scene in India to every home in a big way - first with the stand-up specials, then with 2 seasons of Comicstaan and now with One Mic Stand. It just takes the reality factor from Comicstaan one step further by getting in non-comedians and non-aspiring comedians to try their hands at stand-up for the very first time.

They have kept the reality factor on the show 'real' and not made it medodramatic. The performer in every episode seems genuinely nervous yet not dramatized to cinematic effect. The host and creator of the show Sapan Varma comes across as easy-going and charming. The celebrity guests are largely selected on the basis that they are popular to some extent in social media or viral videos, lending themselves organically to controversy or comedy or both.

From the celebrity guests the first and last - Bhuvan Bam and Shashi Tharoor - are the best! Others do well as per their individual capabilities. The stand-up acts are kept short with around 4-5 minute performance. Other than that each episode comprises of an individual act by the guest mentor and Sapan Varma plus the mentoring sessions.

These are my individual ratings for each celebrity guest. Bhuvan Bam - 4/5 Taapsee Pannu - 3/5 Richa Chadha - 3.5/5 Vishal Dadlani - 3.5/5 Shashi Tharoor - 4/5

These are my individual ratings for the mentors' performances on the show Zakir Khan - 4/5 Angad Singh Ranyal - 4/5 Ashish Shakhya - 3/5 Rohan Joshi - 2/5 Kunal Kamra - 3/5

It is very short i mean all the episodes were of around 30min,but the comedy was of only 7-9 minutes.

That's why I Rated low otherwise content was good.

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.
