Can Indian CEOs be funny?

Yes. Meet Atul Khatri, a middle-aged ex-CEO -turned-comedian who quit his job in 2016 and now makes a living making people laugh harder than they ever have. Please watch his comedy special on Netflix as part of “Comedians of the World” which featured the globe’s top 47 comedians. After the global success of his earlier 2 shows “Daddy Kool “ & “Well-Trained”, he brings his new show “Papa Don’t Preach”

Bringing his 58+-year-old perspective with every show, Atul starts this brand-new show with how the year 2025 was so eventful as both his daughters got married in the same year and he also received his first ever police summons. He talks about being an empty nester and living with his wife who has now started spooking him at night. He talks about the benefits of love marriage, how he always thanked God for giving him 2 daughters and why he never wanted a son. Then he describes in detail the big fat Indian wedding of his elder daughter and the small white wedding of his younger daughter including the shopping, the functions, the guest list and the importance of having a ‘shadow” in every marriage. If you have got married, planning to get married, planning to never get married or planning to attend a marriage you can’t miss this show.
