About this episode

Born into Mumbai’s illustrious Malik family on October 13, 1987, Aadar Malik—son of composer Abu Malik and nephew of Bollywood legend Anu Malik—forged a unique path as a comedian, actor, and musical virtuoso. Trained at London’s Trinity College and holding a Master’s in Classical Acting from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, Aadar’s early theatre stardom (beginning at age 4) evolved into pioneering India’s musical comedy scene. From viral YouTube parodies like "Bhnchd Sutta Cancer Ho Gaya" (millions of views) to co-founding comedy collectives Schitzengiggles and SnG Comedy, his blend of original music and wit in Standup The Musical (2016) on Amazon Prime cemented his legacy. Transitioning seamlessly into films (Katti Batti, Comedy Couple) and web series (Modern Love Mumbai, XXX: Uncensored), Aadar’s versatility shines, while his mentorship on Comicstaan highlights his industry influence. Married to actress Aparna Bajpai, he balances blockbuster roles (Kanneda 2025) with overcoming stage fright through acting—a journey from Mumbai’s theatres to global acclaim. Dive into his YouTube channel "The Aadar Guy" for laughs, music, and a masterclass in innovation!
