Description
Kolkata-born, Mumbai-based Anirban makes his Edinburgh debut, exploring three generations of his family back to British India, the birth of his daughter and the immediate question: what world did he bring his child into? A world full of war, misinformation, disease and division? Is there hope after all? Expect personal stories, sardonic cynicism and big laughs from the smart, relatable star of his special Take It Easy and the creator of dark comedy Afsos (both on Amazon Prime). 'Astounds, astonishes and amazes with his wit and comic timing' (NDTV). 'Suave, smooth... an international veteran' **** (Beat.com.au).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
