Samson Koletkar is the only Indian Jewish stand-up comedian in the world. Koletkar, who was born and bred in Mumbai, has a refreshingly astute approach to humor. The ‘Mahatma Moses Comedy Tour’ is his brainchild. On to the stage, an Indian, a Jew, and an Indian Jew… Doesn’t this sound like a set-up for a joke? It’s not a joke, but it does set the tone for a hilarious evening of cross-cultural comedy.
Dhaya Lakshminarayanan (an Indian Hindu), Joe Nguyen (a Vietnamese Jew), and Samson Koletkar (an Indian Jew) take to the stage with their hilarity and discrepancy. Three thoughtful persons with overlapping identities but distinct points of view discuss their follies, anomalies, and adventures, which are sure to make you chuckle. Don’t be deceived by their long surnames; this group of outstanding comedians has a straightforward approach to comedy that touches on every significant subject imaginable, including race, religion, food, philosophy, nerdiness, and more.
