Lunch Break Mein Funeral? | Standup Comedy by Harshit Mahawar

About this Video

In his twenty-minute set recorded in Bengaluru, Harshit Mahawar skewers the absurdity of modern corporate life, where “work-life balance” has been replaced by what he calls “work-death balance.” He riffs on the pressures of hustle culture, PowerPoint presentations, and endless deadlines, all while navigating the expectations of a middle-class family. Mahawar’s style is sharp and conversational, blending observational humour with personal takes on Bangalore’s tech scene, marriage pressure, and the quest to be “productive” versus “reproductive.” The performance is a cathartic roast of toxic work culture, delivered with the weary energy of someone who has lived through it.
