Smriti Mundhra On Storytelling Styles | What Do You Bring To The Table Podcast | Rajiv Satyal #RajivSatyal #comedy #podcast --- About Rajiv Satyal: Rajiv Satyal is an experienced comedian and host based in Los Angeles, widely known for his clean, family-oriented comedy that connects with audiences of all backgrounds. He began his stand-up journey in Cincinnati, Ohio, his hometown. His first performance was far from conventional—it took place in a locker room for tennis legend Pete Sampras, who was the world’s top-ranked player at the time. From that unusual beginning, Rajiv has achieved several significant milestones. He opened for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in front of a crowd of 17,000 and created the viral video *“I AM INDIAN,”* which has garnered over 100 million views. The video was shared by major Bollywood stars and featured during Modi’s introductions in Shanghai and Dubai. Rajiv also made history as the first comedian to perform a full-length solo stand-up show in India. He has opened for Russell Peters more than any other Indian comic and performed alongside renowned comedians such as Tim Allen, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jo Koy, Kevin Nealon, and Dave Chappelle—including Chappelle’s first show following his return from Africa. One of Rajiv’s career highlights was closing a set at New York’s Gotham Comedy Club immediately after his comedy idol, Jerry Seinfeld. --- About Smriti Mundhra: Smriti Mundhra, born on July 3, 1980, is a Los Angeles–based American filmmaker and the founder of Meralta Films, a production company focused on documentaries and nonfiction storytelling.
