Abhay Nadkarni is a comedian/writer/producer that moved from South India to South Central Los Angeles for grad school. Dodging bullets en route to grad school armed him with plenty of stories and stand-up was his only catharsis for combating culture shock. His act is an eclectic mix of his experience as an immigrant in the US. He's appeared on CBS and Audible's "America from Abroad with Rob Delaney" and has been featured in The Huffington Post and SF Chronicle. He recently completed a 20-show tour of India and is the co-creator of the Desi Comedy Fest: the largest south Asian comedy festival in America. He is also the co-creator of "The Setup," a weekly comedy show featured as one of the best underground comedy shows in San Francisco by Thrillist and Timeout (2016).
