In recent years, the trend of "stand up comedy" are getting popular in India. For those who are not well versed with this theme of comedy, it is important to understand. As the new age millennial find them a good way of their entertainment. It is a new way of entertainment where the performer stands on the stage and delivers humorous jokes, punches , monologues to the audience and make them laugh. I have seen many new comedian organising their stage show and earning handsome income. But in the flow of jokes and gaining popularity, they are going off limit on their level of jokes.

There was a time when dual meaning jokes were very popular. But now people have started going beyond the double standards of jokes and started including their parent personal matters into their jokes. Millennial find them cool stuffs but for majority of audience who watches them and listen them, such jokes does not goes well. They are indecent and vulgar of a different kind. Today, I was listening to one such telecast and the lady performer started using vulgar topic for her jokes. Jokes including vibrator and mother does not sounds well. Especially, when you consider comedy as a family program. People often looks after comedy show as a daily entertainment. In my younger days, we all sat in front of TV and watch such shows with great excitement. We used to love them, as comedy involves topic with genuine laughing talks. But now things have changed, from double kerning jokes to direct vulgar talk. Sitting in front of TV and watching such shows is always dangerous.
In todays times these stand up comedy started including sexual talk that includes their parent. Even though such talk were done humorously but involving parent is not justifiable. What is there so fun of talking sexual matters of your parent. These are sensitive and does not need to be highlighted in public. But these stand up comedian find them hilarious and trying to cash Om these talk. No matters who the audience and what the audience will interpret. For them, cashing out on public sentiment and making money is main motive. I would honestly dislike such shows going on. As you never know what the content comes up. The mindset of these comedian are not normal and in pursuit of fame and popularity they are making everything hell.
In good faith - Peace!!
