About this Video

Gaurav Purohit mines dark comedy from the depths of depression in this short Bangalore set. The comedian leans into the bleakness of his subject matter, building humor around the repetition of his central theme—turning personal mental struggle into the framework for his jokes. In just over a minute, Purohit demonstrates how to find comedic rhythm within heavy subject matter, letting the relentless focus on depression itself become the punchline. His approach shows a willingness to sit uncomfortably with difficult emotions while extracting laughs.
