This is a side of Kumar that many have not seen. Indeed, it comes from being of a certain age (meaning, life experiences) and I do sincerely wish him the best as he takes on the new challenges regarding mental health.
This is such an excellent interview. I used to shun Kumar for many years because I thought his jokes were in bad taste. My wife though was always a fan. ( We're both in our 50s). Lately he's caught my attention and I'm really very impressed with the person that Kumar has become or rather, we now get to see his off stage persona and I've grown to respect him a lot. There's a lot of valuable take- aways from this heart warming interview. Kumar is coming through as a real wise gentleman. Thank you for hosting him and I really hope that he'll see this comment.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Kumar has been through so much, and the way the host, Durgaa, handled the conversation was truly commendable. She was polite, empathetic, and brought a warm and engaging touch to the show.
Kumar you are an icon of love and Empowerment to men who have been through torture, trauma and violence. You are a natural encourager and great influence.
Thank you for sharing a truly terrific programme. Kumar should be awarded a Doctorate in Philosophy for his enlightening WISDOM.....

I really loved this episode, I'll probably watch again at some point. Been to a couple of kumar's shows in Singapore and loved it. Thanks for being so open and honest during the podcast. You did a great job as well Durga!!❤❤❤
Awwww .... so sorry to hear about Oreo, Kumar. Must be devastating. 😔 Thank you for the laughs and the life lessons. Have adored you since The Ra Ra Show. In the flesh, you are SO diva ♥️ Caught you in a play too. Sooooo talented yet humble. Merry X'mas to Kumar and Durga 🎉
Thank you, Kumar, for sharing your painful journey. It takes immense courage to speak out about such personal experiences, especially as a gay celebrity. Your story of overcoming an abusive upbringing, trauma, and scars at a young age is both powerful and inspiring. By opening up, you not only validate the struggles of many but also empower young people to embrace their true selves, regardless of societal judgment. God Bless 🙌
Thank u kumar. So down to earth yet so funny. For being so brave to expose yr true self not afraid of being judged (may be we hv known you so well in this time life 😂 since then . Bravo
I enjoyed the programme very much. Both of you put out a captivating video. Kumar, I've watched you from SBC days. You have improved and make others motivated by your sensible approach n attitude. Love it, keep at what you are doing. May God bless you always 🙏 ❤️.
Love Kumar's frankness and realistic views to issues. Also love Durgaa's (host) laughter. Such a joy to hear unbridled laughter especially on air nowadays
Always interesting to watch Kumar having interviews. He is so different from his stage shows. I totally salute him and he is the one and only comedian for me
Love Kumar, love this episode and I love Durga for being the host!! I remembered years back when I was at Kumar’s show and I was a bachelorette as well. I and the other girl was called upon. But he roasted the girl more than me. Hahaha. Felt safe with him. 💕
Hi host, sorry i didnt get yr 45:20 name. U hv a lovely voice who keeps us focused n interested throughout . .. i am memerised by its lyrical tone . It is Yr. gift & talent that u hv put into good use..keep up the good work 😊 thanks inviting kumar our heartlander to yr programme indeed . I love the way how u faciliate e flow of conversation w kumar that makes it such an amazing programme to watch throughout😂
Hello Foo, You've absolutely hit the nail on the head about the host! If I'm not mistaken, her name is Durga. I recently discovered this channel and must agree that she has a remarkable ability to captivate her audience. It's surprising that she isn't already a prominent figure in mainstream media or news casting. As a new subscriber too , I'm delighted to explore the diverse perspectives offered here from just seeing some of the Guests she brings on to the Show. It's also truly refreshing to witness the wealth of talent we have in Singapore. Kudos to Durga and the entire team for their exceptional work. I hope this channel continues to grow and gain the recognition it deserves. Cheers!🙂
I really enjoyed this programme. So informative, educational, clean and can be used as an educational piece. Thanks, Kumar, for sharing your life's journey. May God's blessing rest upon you and grant you shalom peace.
Really love kumar as comedian and as a wonderful being. He keeps it so real! Actually fun fact, in 2019 i really had such a bad day. Even crying in the toilet actually lol, due to really high pressure given my by boss and the bank. But i went for his show and he was sooo funny that i really felt so much better for days i rmr. I even bought a ticket for my boss and his and missus after that so that he will be relaxed also so he won't stress me out.
We loves our country Singapore even its strict n full of Regulations n Laws,We still Safe... Glad some of us still hv a Simple life ,Ehg Sim for d Stars,Moon ..,etc End e Day one will be Stress out.... Simple life is less Stressful..
its true....i m also debt free....as a Muslim i cherish moderation in life....i dont measure myself by luxurious things to show to others....i value myself by my principles of being a gud and positive Muslim and achieve myself-goals... i do look up to certain successful individuals and containing myself within my principles and goals
I never watch kumar show. I watched his interview on Podcast ok lets go.. and now is my second time watching him on podcast. They way he talk, his thought bla bla so true....and that's make interview more interesting. Thank you for having Kumar on ur podcast. Watching ur show all the from Brunei 🇧🇳 . Happy New Year 2025 🎉🎉🎉
Wow,i dont why but it seems i enjoy this show,maybe is bcoz of the darkside once released,one can feel better and thruthly very interesting to hear his story,lastly 10q 2u Kumar,i really enjoy this show coz the things u talk hit my core.😊
I enjoyed this show of Kumar and Durga. It is really a good and wonderful conversation. Kumar you are always the best.Happy New year Durga and Kumar all the very best
JB is slowly thriving Kumar. I’m a Johorean. ❤ but for me as a M’sian i prefer to stay & live in JB compared to KL, because in KL i think every body is like rushing to work. Some drivers there are quite impatient sometimes. But the funny thing some S’poreans i met they wanna retire in M’sia and i said why. They say here is a bit more relaxed
How do I ...? I process my own thoughts. I checkout my own emotional temperature. I know what I want to me that means I know what feeling I want to end up having about that specific context that caused me pain. I know what I dont want means I already have some idea (i may be wrong) what kind of reception I might be getting in any context. I try not to discount others' thoughts/feelings if there be any feeling to consider (bc most people dont show their feelings), but in my empathic experience, I always give others the benefit of a doubt. I always wait for a response in stead of babbling to get a response. I find that most people like to talk alot. about everything and nothing in particular. It's find that perhaps people are ready to ask the right questions. I often wont give advice or opinions. I use "I" statement more. This way the person knows they themselves are responsible for their own actions/behaviors.
Hi Kumar, Nice to know you.. I’m Grayson from Malaysia.. I was watching your video on UA-cam [ Christmas With Kumar ] I decided to leave you a comment & the part you mentioned ‘come to me’. I’m trying to stop some bad habits.. I know it’s bad but always fall into temptation every single time.. I just want someone I can really talk to… let me give you an example… for instance, if you feel like going out for lunch or dinner, Do you know which friends to ask? In my case, I don’t… that Is so pathetic. Hope you’ll reply this email. I wish to tell you more in specific.

JB is slowly thriving Kumar. I’m a Johorean. ❤ but for me as a M’sian i prefer to stay & live in JB compared to KL, because in KL i think every body is like rushing to work. Some drivers there are quite impatient sometimes. But the funny thing some S’poreans i met they wanna retire in M’sia and i said why. They say here is a bit more relaxed
This is a WOMANS WORLD
people look for happiness in the future whereas they should work towards finding happiness in the presence.
