Pentas 1: 16 February 2024. Jaspreet – With Love. A stand up comedy show. An innocent and harmless looking creature, Jaspreet is highly allergic to the stupid arguments people make in the name of logic. He observes the world and brings humour out of it. His quick-paced commentary on things might range from his self-awareness or the lack of it. His interactions with fellow human beings have made him the nice person he is. This amazing show brings out some jokes and stories that last over an hour with an anticipated end result – Banda toh sahi hai yaar! The show will be in Hindi. Jaspreet has had sold-out shows all around the world, and finally, it’s time for him to perform for the first time in Kuala Lumpur.
