Varun Grover

Varun Grover in his first-ever stand-up special, can't make sense about African Cheetahs landing in India, growing up as a Punjabi, nostalgia for the 90s, increasing intolerance, intergenerational trauma, IRCTC website and it's obsession with captcha and threats to free speech in the biggest democracy in the world.

Set in the 90s, seventeen-year-old Vivek is sent away from home to attend a rigorous program to prepare for the highly competitive IIT entrance exams. Over two years, Vivek goes through the motions of Indian adolescence, but it is his parents who do the growing up.

At a preview theatre, a young filmmaker waits in the hope of getting his new sci-fi drama certified with ‘no cuts’ by the conservative men of the Indian Censor Board.

The filmmaker and board members argue, but when they enter the movie theatre to review the film, the laws of physics begin to disintegrate, sending these men into a world of chaos.
