- In an interview, she discussed the challenges faced by comedians in India, saying,
Comedy, like any other industry, comes with its own set of challenges, regardless of gender. Creating regular content, writing as much as possible, and building an audience for your show are just a few of the many bullet points on the list. So why is it that when I achieve even one of these, people praise me for being able to do it “as a woman” and congratulate me for being the first woman to do it? While you enjoy the attention initially, it doesn’t take long before you want to be the best at what you do, regardless of your gender. Therefore, I set myself the goal of being the best comedian, rather than the best person to make people laugh. For me, the only way to break down gender bias and related discrimination is to be so good at my job that people can’t avoid me. ”
