About Us

The Comedy Factory is a trailblazing entertainment venture, the first of its kind in India. It was conceptualized by Manan Desai, Co-Founder & Programming Director, who has over seven years of experience hosting prime-time shows on various FM radio stations in Gujarat. Driven by a hunger for live entertainment in the state, he founded The Comedy Factory in 2011 to provide audiences with original content and humor.

With time our performances took us way beyond Gujarat, including corporate affairs and public shows in countries like the UK, Canada, USA, and Australia. We are proud to have pioneered Urban Standup Comedy in Gujarat and have since expanded our expertise to include Improv, Musical, and Sketch Comedy.

Our popular Instagram and YouTube channels feature original content in the form of stand up videos, sketches, song mashups, vlogs and much more in Gujarati, Hindi, and English, showcasing that language ain’t a lose screw for this factory.

Popular comedic voices of India including likes of Zakir Khan, Amit Tandon, Vir Das, Kanan Gill, Abishek Upmanyu, Kenny Sebastian have brought their live shows to Gujarat through us.

Having made significant appearances in television and in Gujarati cinema since 2014, The Comedy Factory is poised to soar even higher. Our diverse group of artists is ready to set new benchmarks and avenues for talent in Gujarat. With over a decade of experience and countless satisfied audiences, this is only the beginning of our journey.
