How do you stay fresh in the face of an idea like that?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Well plagiarism is a very real issue in this industry. That&#8217;s why whenever I come up with a topical joke, I check with other comics cause a lot of time thoughts become aligned to a joke that&#8217;s been done before. However I avoid topical jokes and mostly do stuff I experience in family and otherwise. So they keep giving me fresh material. And I don&#8217;t have to worry about anybody stealing them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">What is the difference between trying to write jokes and develop stand-up comedy material?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Well some jokes are funny only on Twitter or paper. To develop the joke into a stand up bit takes time because you would want to add tags and act outs to the joke. And the only way to do that is getting on stage and doing open mics. Just the premise and the punchline aren&#8217;t enough sometimes. Unless, of course, if you have the right persona to pull it off. Like Mitch Hedberg.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\"> What are the secrets for telling everyday jokes in order to get the biggest laughs from your audience?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Well I haven&#8217;t figured that one out yet. I am getting medium laughs now. But its all about writing and what you observe. Someone once told me, &#8220;Everything is funny. Just keep writing and you&#8217;ll find a way to make it funny. &#8221; Also open mics.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">What according to you is the relationship of comedy with depression and suffering?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Well depression is real. People should come and talk to their friends or come talk to me. I&#8217;ll talk to you. And it&#8217;s high time people started taking it seriously. We can&#8217;t say things like &#8220;Oh Cheer up&#8221;. If they could Cheer up, they would cheer up. So talk. And talking is what comedy is. In fact comedy is the only form of talking where you can ease your soul with laughter instead of directly plunging into the points at hand. Laughter is a medicine. I can&#8217;t say if it&#8217;s the best but it&#8217;s pretty damn close.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">What makes your stand-up comedy unique and different from other comedians?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As I said, I don&#8217;t do too many jokes about politics or current affairs. So the chances of having a joke clash with anyone are zero. I talk about my daily life experiences. And when I call people for a show, I hope that they&#8217;ll get to know me a little better. Not my political views. Your personal experiences and stories are always what makes you unique.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">\u00a0Sometimes when people go shopping for clothes they will see something they really like, but they won\u2019t buy it because it doesn\u2019t go with anything else in their wardrobe. Do you ever come up with jokes that aren\u2019t in your voice and that wouldn&#8217;t go with your act, like something dirty or really political, so you don\u2019t use them ?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, that happens quite a lot. But I don&#8217;t like giving jokes away. I&#8217;m selfish like that. I just put those jokes on social media.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">A friend of yours just got married a month ago. He is also pursuing a career in standup comedy. Any advice on how to make that work?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Well I hope he continues doing stand up and doesn&#8217;t quit under pressure. I don&#8217;t know who you are talking about but that&#8217;s the general advice.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_359387\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-359387\" style=\"width: 1074px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-attachment-id=\"359387\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/student-stories\/rivu-ganguly-comedian-story-kalkutta-comediansinterview\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?fit=1074%2C740&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1074,740\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?fit=300%2C207&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?fit=1024%2C706&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-359387 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?resize=1074%2C740&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"rivu ganguly interview student stories bengali star\" width=\"1074\" height=\"740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?resize=1074%2C740&#038;ssl=1 1074w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?resize=1074%2C740&#038;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?resize=1074%2C740&#038;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/student-stories.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/student-stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/17221316\/14918777_1160276097394610_1857736825104299261_o.jpg?resize=1074%2C740&#038;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1074px) 100vw, 1074px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-359387\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Talking about his own experiences more- Rivu Ganguly<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><span class=\"_3oh- _58nk\">\u00a0Do you find that your style of comedy works better with some audiences than others? Do you write your own routines or are you spontaneous on stage performer ?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes definitely. But most of the times if the room is full and good and warm, it&#8217;s the best thing you could ask for. So getting a chuckle from them is also a beautiful feeling. But yes. I generally feel I connect to young and middle aged people more because oldies don&#8217;t get the tech references. So I try to avoid those references. And yes. Writing is the most important thing I believe. Sometimes I&#8217;ll try a premise on stage without writing to see what comes out spontaneously. But I write on that once I get some tags.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Also read &#8221;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/student-stories\/aquib-begg-comedian-ss-interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">All Things Bengali And Nice !
