Smriti Mundhra On Importance of Networking in Bollywood | What Do You Bring To The Table Podcast #RajivSatyal #comedy #podcast --- About Rajiv Satyal: Rajiv Satyal is a seasoned comedian and host based in Los Angeles, recognized for his clean, family-friendly humor that appeals to a wide and varied audience. He launched his stand-up career in his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. His debut performance was anything but ordinary—it took place in a locker room for then-world number one tennis star Pete Sampras. Since that unconventional start, Rajiv has marked several major milestones. He opened for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi before an audience of 17,000 and created the viral video “I AM INDIAN,” which has amassed over 100 million views. The video was shared by Bollywood celebrities and featured during Modi’s introductions in Shanghai and Dubai. Rajiv also holds the distinction of being the first comedian to perform a full-length solo stand-up act in India. He has opened for Russell Peters more than any other Indian comedian and shared the stage with comedy greats like Tim Allen, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jo Koy, Kevin Nealon, and Dave Chappelle—including Chappelle’s first show post-Africa. A career-defining moment for Rajiv was closing his set at Gotham Comedy Club in New York immediately after his comedy hero, Jerry Seinfeld. --- About Smriti Mundhra: Smriti Mundhra, born on July 3, 1980, is an American filmmaker based in Los Angeles.
