Kenny Sebastian

ActorDirectorWriter

Born into a middle class family and raised across different cities in India helped 25 year old Kenneth Sebastian develop a keen sense of observation of culture, people and stereotypes, all of which have found its way into his comedy. A graduate from an art school, he dabbled with painting, music and film making with an editors credit on a feature film before he found his true calling in the form of stand up comedy. Having performed in over 500 shows in the last five years, written and hosted a show on Comedy Central that completed one season and having released four comedy specials online along with India’s first sci-fi comedy web series, Kenneth is well on his way to change the face of comedy in India.

Sketchy Behaviour

Sketchy Behaviour is an absurd sketch comedy show filmed live in front of a largely captive audience in Mumbai. Described as hilarious, complex, stupid, irritating (and 'sardonic' by one lady in Goa) the show veers in and out of the familiar and the bizarre with equal comfort. A knee-slapping head-scratching torrent of jokes, characters and self-aware comedy that successfully spent the entire budget that was available to spend on the show. Featuring six very silly live sketches, stitched together by a much sillier story about the nature of art itself and bookended by extremely silly and unnecessary opening and closing, Sketchy Behaviour is truly a work of something.

Journey to the Center of My Brain

Journey to the center of my brain is a one hour stand up comedy special by Indian stand up comedian Kenny Sebastian. This special was released online for free on Youtube on Nov 17th. The special is a mix of conventional stand up with music humor as Kenny talks about being a 23 year old Malayali, Dealing with break ups, Why Guitar makes everything better and a love song which makes more sense as a theme for a horror film.

The Other Way

In the glitz and the glamour of a Bollywood dominated industry that India has today, we narrate the story of a parallel film-making community whose aim is not to create cliched blockbusters, but to tell a meaningful and thought provoking story through the medium of cinema.
