Aditi Mittal – Stand up Comic

MITTAL IS CURRENTLY IN MUMBAI DOING OPEN MICS AND SITTING AT HOME WITH HER DOGS

Aditi Mittal is a stand-up comedian, writer, actor, teacher, and—by her own admission—humbler than Narayana Murthy.

She’s performed her brand of sharp, fearless comedy on stages from Switzerland to Nigeria to Australia, and is headed to Kenya next—so if you have tourist tips (or a cousin in immigration), now’s the time to get in touch.

She has two stand-up specials on Netflix (Things They Wouldn’t Let Me Say, Girl Meets Mic), one on Amazon Prime UK and AUS (Mother of Invention), and her own show on BBC Radio 4, A Beginner’s Guide to India. Most recently, she collaborated with the Financial Times on a short film called In That Top—finally answering the question, “Can capitalism and cleavage coexist?”

Aditi has worked with some of the top comedians on the planet, including Vir Das, Zarna Garg, and Hasan Minhaj, which makes her basically one brunch away from hosting her own Netflix festival.

Her writing has appeared in Financial Times, Indian Express, Economic Times, and Femina, proving that she can type as well as she talks (and occasionally punctuate).

You can hear her dulcet tones on the Women In Labour podcast, the Discontent Creation podcast, and as a guest on the award-winning Bugle podcast, where she regularly startles listeners with both facts and feelings.

She’s also an experienced educator and facilitator, teaching in Mass Media courses and schools across Mumbai. She’s the founder of Crash Burn Learn and Punchlines and Powersuits—comedy workshops designed for everyone from anxious teens, women in the workforce all the way to corporate CEOs pretending they have a personality.

And again, in case you missed it: she’s very humble. Like, Narayana-Murthy-doing-charity-in-incognito-mode humble
