As a Mexican-American with immigrant parents, I love his response, it's perfect and so relatable.
Exactly we speak different at home as Mexicans and pronounce some English words how our only Spanish speaking parents do so like for ex. instead of TikTok my mom says it like teektoh lol
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s hilarious cause that shit was wack asf. I mostly fw this dude but sometimes shits corny asf. Like why wouldn’t he do it? To what cost does it take to just do an impression?
@@liamrog2278 Same reason he don’t usually. He’s funny without doing all that.
As a black man who grew up in the hood and is now the only black face on suburban block. I would also agree, I'm pretty sure my white friends don't even think I use the word "N-A" 🤣
“Not around these whites…”😂😂😂💀
Not like thats racist or anything
@@FartInYourFace234 you're right it isn't
@@Retr0_Blues how is it not?
@@Retr0_Blues what about “not around these blacks”
@@FartInYourFace234 because of the intent behind the words. His “Not around these whites…” is something along the lines of "I'm not gonna give folks more ammunition on us. I don't want to give them a reason to think about our accents". I can think negative meanings behind “not around these blacks”, just based on what I hear living in the south.
I agree to some extent, I don't either statement it's useful, but I know where the comedian's coming from more.
As an Indian teen who lives in the States and has an Indian accent, it hurts to see this. I get mocked all the time and it doesn't help when ABCDs like this just make me feel like a joke lmao
You do you, young king. These hoes are only showing the world how dumb and ignorant they are
What does ABCD stand for?
@@kedabro1957 American Born Confused Desis lmfao
@@adinyk5 good one 😅
sorry that your peers are uncultured and immature, but technically everyone has accents sooo 🤷🏻♀️ you will find better friends. hang in there!
The fact that she and all her friends view the Indian accent as something to be laughed at
The more weird thing about this whole incident is that her constant emphasis of saying "i as Patel" and not "I as Indian".
This shows she's true to her values and culture, that even outside the country the stupid emphasis on surname/caste system has still their.
And then they cry about white people flaunting their skin colour lol.
@@PlatypusPerry- Instead of putting an end to unendlessly racist rants Indian people facing which are being normalised due to their unique natural accent, you put another issue in it to divert what's happening at the moment. This girl might not even know what patel means, and what's the reason behind its existence. And then you bring another way to divert this! You're no different from this girl, you're just pretending to be different. Also Stop spamming everywhere!
@@PlatypusPerry- You are no different from her & her colonial doggy attitude.
@@aaradhyarawat7589 exactly. Self culture hating indians are blooming nowadays, just to divide Indians among themselves so that we fight each other and real enemies both outside and inside can take benifit of it
@@PlatypusPerry- you Are a bot because you are in every comment section 🤔 .
He's not one of those 1st gen commedians to only make stereotypical jokes on his ethnicity and accent. To think it's funny. He's as clever as Dave Chapelle. And also diverse.
Girl be like: everyone mocks me for my identity, so i'll also act like one of them and mock my own identity 💀

@@Trials_By_Errors Patel surname represents caste and that's what I wrote. I don't know why are you getting confused
@@PlatypusPerry- you suit this kind of nri mentality where self culture mocking is taken as something very good
@@PlatypusPerry- Patel is not a caste my guy what the fuck are you talking about? It's a surname that a lot of different families (belonging to different castes) have, and share some similarities.
@@pritamchatterjee1210 if this is a culture then why you guys cry about racism?
She has a Cali valley girl accent if any lol
I bet she is proud of it.
She's saying her fake Indian accent, like stereotypical one people use for jokes.
@@SparkyGeckodon’t use too many words, you’ll scare the unintelligent

@@izzyh.3581 I didn't know missing the point could be made to look this cringe
@@roguej15 you thought that weak ass joke was hilarious huh?
Ahaha thank you so much. It’s such a cheap laugh and you know they’re only laughing in a degrading way.
Yup. An Indian accent for laughs is a cheap joke. It’s also not this dudes style.
It’s literally an Indian asking him to do it, too. No self respect whatsoever
Maybe it would be fine in a fun way if it's among your family or close friends but yeah publicly just degrading
it’s really not that deep, people wanna hear me say stuff with my southern accent cause they think it’s funny all the time
@@Stephen-jw8ci do you naturally have a southern accent? Are people asking you to put on a country bumpkin accent?
Come oooon....just do a litttttle Black Face for us !
😂😂😂
From his own people how fucked is that
@@joshuachandra6677 internalized racism. And funny thing is even the whites see that
LMFAOOO
@@joshuachandra6677 it's not that suprising. Indians are considered inferior by whites. So if she was born and raised there probably would start thinking the same way.
For those unaware, there are a significant number of whitewashed Indian women (in particular) who will stay as far away from Indian culture as possible despite having immigrant parents. They will also say they don't date anyone from India and will mock anything to do with the culture.
This is otherwise known as internalized racism when one of your own hates on the group.
Not only is it cringey but only says more about her own insecurities.
I sympathize, growing up 1st gen in America, if there are other indians in your school, hearing “you’re not Indian enough” is common. On the flip side, you’ll be made fun of by everyone else for embracing your culture. Given in most areas the Indian pop is small, u just gotta act and speak like everyone else to “survive”.
And if you ever do go to India, you’ll definitely not be seen as Indian even if u fully embrace your “indianness” in the states.
Why try to be part of a group that doesn’t even think u belong?
Reminds me of Mindy from the Mindy Project
The ABCD is loud and clear with her
We call them Sepoys or Coconuts or maybe a conjunction of both. I think y'all know what i mean by Coconut.
@@wejsmith5446 You are surrounding yourself with losers if they make fun of you for your culture lmao.
The girl doesn't knows the difference between 'comedy' and 'shaming someone'.
In her defence, a lot of "comedians" don't. She probably mistook Nimesh to be one of those "comedians" whose "jokes" exclusively revolve around racism and stereotypes.
@@sayanti_c That's a shameful defence in first place. Among all the possible questions or requests, she had to ask that because as a brown coolie of the west, she has insecurities. So she had to make herself look like a clown so that the whites would consider her as a product of fun and add them to their group.
So sweet Nimesh. He doesn’t use Indian accent just for gags
As an Indian the way they pronounce Patel is cringe af. Talk about changing your core identity to fit in. And then they preach acceptance of all people.
She could be 3rd generation. I hear 3rd Gen and even second Gen Korean immigrants pronounce their last names, like Park, very Americanized in English. But if they introduce themselves in Korean, they use the correct Korean pronunciation
Paataaaail...... Really?
@@UnicornsPoopRainbows Now that is just dumb(I don't mean you). If you know the correct pronunciation of a word of your own language why would you pronounce it like a non native speakers would?
No shit same goes for pakistanis who pronounce paakhistaen lmaoo
I thought us Gujjus kept the bond with our culture strong even in foreign lands and throughout generations. Not her family ig🤦
Hahaha She has no idea that she's been convinced that her friends are laughing WITH her and not AT her. I know other Indians are ashamed of her that she uses her heritage as a gimmick
1000%. The fact that she said this out loud without shame is baffling to me. Woman literally said "I like making a mockery of my people because then my heritage is acceptable to my 'friends'" Thank God I was raised to be proud of being Indian and didn't do this sh/t. Her ancestors are rolling rn.
@@panjabipandit same…
@@panjabipandit whites consider indians inferior. So obviously she would act like them if living with them.
@@panjabipandit I mean , she is a Patel, so they are probably not rolling, cos I don't think there's no graves involved.
The girl litrally said "as a patel" instead of "as an indian" shows u how white washed she is
allow me to translate:
"I am brown too, hence it is okay for me to be racist towards my own kind to impress my white friends so that I can fit in and not look like an outcast. I'm also gonna say this in the most American accent possible because I'm cool"
You couldn't be more correct
True 🤣
There are so many Indian people like this it’s hilarious. They have a master mindset when around white people. It’s mostly women like this
You guys are so soft lol
"Racialise yourself in front of this crowd of white people to make them laugh! Im brown too so its fine for me to ask"
Exactly! Such a loser... Epic response Nimesh.
Thats whats up! My guy never fell for that low hanging fruit!!
wdym?
"Not around these whites" was my most used sentence when working in corporate. Absolutely not 😂😂🥂

Everyone feels more at home with their people nothing wrong with that
That girl gotta be the pastiest Patel on the planet
Hero status confirmed. Nimesh a true Indian soldier.
Her friends: “hey Amanda Patel do that funny voice for us again!”
Right she probably gets roasted daily for her race/ethnicity they shouldn't be her friends
@@mrmillennium2697 just by her voice alone I can tell what kind of girls she hangs out with and they’re definitely doing it to make fun of her smh
She's an idiot for asking him that. Good on him for not falling for her self hatred. 🤭
Thank you! I was shocked at her question. Self hatred is right!
@The Universe Of Andrew brown equivalent of 'tap dancing for the white man'
@The Universe Of Andrew shes using her heritage as a mere gimmick so she can apease her friends. The indian accent has a very negative stereotype around it and shes reenforcing it
She's probably the most anti Indian racist in the room. Have seen enough of these kinds go to India and act superior over everyone else, knowing quite well that the person in India she is visiting probably has domestic help while she has to scrub her own toilets. Nothing wrong with cleaning your own toilets btw, as long as you don't act like princess perfect
@The Universe Of Andrew I promise you, I understand them much better than you could ever hope to.
Nimesh real alpha dawg. Did not get swept in the moment, held his ground and made a good point.
As a pa-tell☠️☠️
More like Pa-tayl
Bro she couldve atleast pronounce patel right lmao… like pateeeel 😂😂
@Maina B exactly
पटेल , Just like our Iron Man Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
@@ayazmughal4058vhi toh😂
That was such a weird question. She wanted him to speak in accent just so they could laugh about it? As indians we already feel insecure because of how media portrays us and she just couldn't understand it
She understands it alright. She's just desperate for her white friends' approval is all.
We? Why would you say that? You crave for whyte recognition, not me!
True
You feel insecure, because you seek validation.
I’m surprised you let her talk for so long
He let her speak coz there were like a million Patel's in that room.. imagine the kind of crap he'd have to deal with if he stopped her
If he had stopped her, we all Indians wouldn’t have had a good laugh lol
That girl has Internalized racism problem
This is so true..
Or a trying to hard look at me I think I’m funny syndrome
Nah just insecure.
That's cute though.
You don’t have to be racist to find an accent amusing jesus
Common girl! Are we Indian are getting dumb? Why are we playing into American/westerner stereotypes.
She is pleasing her American friends but for what at the expense of her own culture?
His response was perfect.
This just goes to show, how the generation of here born Indian are getting into dumb and dumber train.
Is that into water here???

He's usually savage. He was way too easy on her.
What else did you expect him to do?
I think he could tell that it was mostly alcohol induced and didn't want to embarrass her
"They make fun of my accent so do yours so that they can make fun of you too"
Very few Americans are bilingual. Whereas each and every kid in India is bilingual.
Rather multilingual.
this is the first time i’ve seen an american indian comedian who’s comedy doesn’t revolve around indian stereotypes! gonna have to subscribe
I always say- it always your own people that try to drag you down. What exactly would be the point of putting on a stereotypical Indian accent when you're clearly born and raised in the US with a Cali girl accent. She likes making a mockery of her own people (she's a Patel remember? Spokeswoman) to her "friends" who find it funny. Sounds like inferiority complex and internal racism to me.
Them coconuts can go lengths to degrade their own people and culture just to appease their white friends.
Asian girls are always notorious for this. Including some self hating guys as well.
@@troigcyusa asian girls r worse specially indian girls they put down india indian men nd just date white men
I respect the shit out of this. Nothing pisses me off more than members of our own community denigrating ourselves by putting on an accent that people deem “funny.” It does nothing but make us seem like simps, and people with no self respect. Love you more and more my dude. Keep it up!!
He knew she grew up as probably the only few Indian persons in her whole area so he let her down nicely. Real nicely.
That one person who does anything to make their friends like them 🥳
Imagine one white with a group of Indian friends getting roasted for being white
True 🤣
That girl singlehandedly dropped the mean IQ of the entire room by atleast 20 points. jesus
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
XD omg
An indian girl too. Shame
This is like the time an Indian school girl at a busy traffic intersection in Sydney with her white boyfriend was shouting in the crowd "fucking Indians everywhere" her boyfriend was embarrassed and told her you shouldn't speak like that.
Wtf. The white guy had bad luck
Girls are getting dumber and dumber these days. 🤣🤣
Imagine dating a white girl who hate the people of his own race. That will be a terrible. Never marry a girl who is not comfortable in her own skin. It doesn't matter which race she belongs too.
Just a basic example of least-amount of internalised racism. It's a trend among people of Indian origin to impress neo-nazis in white-majority countries!☺️🤭🥰
"Make fun of your culture for my entertainment, foreigner "
Spoken like a true american
True 🤣
"First of all" is a scary way to start a sentence.
Nimesh is up there with content driven comedy which is witty and insightful and this coconut is expecting a 'Thank you come again' and head bobble just because he is a Patel too.
This coconut..lmao
coconut?
Coconut means dark/brown outside and white inside.
It's weird how internalised racism is among Indo-American community.
You're speaking facts, we sell ourselves out because we're afraid of not being accepted by non-Indians. In High School so many people would ask me to do the stereotypical Indian accent, and at first I'd do it. I'd make them laugh and like me more but at what cost? Mocking my parents, grandparents, other family, etc. who worked so hard just to give a me a good life. Like I swear brown people in America need to respect ourselves and take pride in our heritage. This can only happen when we stand up for ourselves.
@@pxrkhali3363 yes, and maybe not give a f about what others think
It's not racism but inferiority complex.
Clearly that girl always on her knees
Looking up on the people and then wondering why she's looked down upon.
We get treated the way we want to be. She's not claimed by any of us.
That's certainly the best position to suck up to Whites. I hope she is doing well atleast. 🤣🤣
She's for the streets
Colonization is real look at the impact
@@mrmillennium2697 they were just born in a different country. If you were born in america you'd have an american accent as well.
Here’s the thing though. I feel like Americans, even Indian- Americans don’t understand that, there is no one particular Indian accent. Ther accent changes according to which state that person is from, &what languages they speak as well as what their economic background is. South Indians speak English with a different accent, punjabis have a different accent, theres a Gujarati accent, there’s a posh South Bombay/Delhi accent both of which are different…then there’s so much more. To stereotype Indians in a single block is kind of annoying, because to Americans we’re all the same. Everyone does the Appu accent which is so derogatory.
Her: I have an Indian accent.
Also her: Phasheyl..!!
It's Patel!! Puh - tell!!
More like Puh-tail. पटेल
Bro not the Phasheyl 😭😆💀
@@rawadosa90210Both of you are correct in a way. Some of us emphasize the "te" (टे) part. I do it quick since Marathi is my state language (you know, no?) But yeah, Gujrati friends say it differently.
But the Americanized stretching of "teeeeeyyyylllll" in the video literally confused me. On a similar note, certain coworkers say my surname like
"phya + tt + ill + huhhhhhh"
@@akp51v-content I didn't know Gujjus pronounced Patel differently. Brb, gotta check with my friends.
Higher standards than cheap laughs ^^
This girl was trying to bait him through hoops.
“I keep that shit in the family bro” - 💯🔥
“A future Hank Azaria”
How tf did he come up with that😂
Much respect! For a first thr is atleast one comedian of Indian origin who doesn't think comedy is only doing Indian accent. Like every other comedian does that just that & that too the accent that few boomers had.
"My friends get a kick out of my Indian accent, so do yours."
I don't know which is stronger in this sentence, the incredible entitlement, or the perfoming bear energy. 😟
This girl really just asked the dumbest question on the planet, after coming to HIS comedy show and saying “oh you have an American accent but you’re Indian, do THE accent”. Like lmao go to India if you want to hear the accent. And then saying “As a Patel” like bruh.
Hank Azaria reference in the holster on that one!
*The general American perception of Indian accent is far from reality.* Almost everyone I encountered on my India tour spoke at least three languages, and their accents changed every 100 miles.
Most of us here in the states can barely speak two languages and still make fun of their accents.
nice to see he doesn't want cheap laughs by faking absurd accents
“I keep that shit in the family bro” Lol
The way she pronounced Patel itself is an American pronounciation 😂
I understand, as a black man some things just aren’t okay in front of company.
Yikes. You know her white friends made her do it because she doesn’t “sound Indian” Some people don’t understand that it’s okay to be offended and say no.
That was Amy Schumer in the audience trying to steal my man’s accent
She was there to reinforce the sterotype and Nimesh said “Beat it” lol
Yea that was embarrassing for her😅🤣
What a wild request 💀
People like her motivates me to not to leave India ever❤️
She has a blond lady accent🤦♂️🤣
“I’m not gonna give em any ammunition” lmfao respect 💯
She is Phathail not Patel.
Always a Becky

“I keep that shit in the family” ❤
He should have added "around the whites, which includes you"
"As a Patel use your Indian accent", yeah I didn't knew that your accent originates from your second name & not from where you've lived & spoken your whole life.
Brown sepoys
We code switch for a reason! He has learned 👊🏾
Did her friends think they bought tickets for a minstrel show?
guy who immediately clocked it was gonna be out of pocket when she said not to offend anybody has me crying lmao 😭

......pa-tayyll 🗿
bruh she couldnt even get her patels right
As a pataeeelllllll … lmfao all desi knows how to pronounce patelllllll🤣🤣🤣
I understand that she has American accent . But how can she pronounced her sir name like that 😂
@@vimalkumar-zz6pn exactly like just use ur normal accent to say ur name.
How do you say it?
@Rachel Lotus pa-tail something like that but the way she said sounded too americanized
@@rachellotus5137The first part "Pa" (प) is actually like the p (p+uh) in "Stop". It is quick and it is not "aaaa" or "pyaa"
The second part "te" (टे) is also a fast like the "take", not like "tail" or "teyyyyal". She stretched it too far for too long.
The last part of the surname is an L or "l" (ल) and it is also moderately fast like the "tell" i.e., it does not linger around once the word ends.
So,
Patel (पटेल) has a fast and crispy pronunciation. While some regional people will add extra emphasis on the "t" part, the word still remains a quick one.
Again, I am writing this because my surname is Patil (पाटील), and some of my non-native contacts have pronounced the "pat" part like "p + yaaa", they thought it rhymes with the English word "hat."
But, my surname has a vertical line that we call "Kaanaa" (काना) in Marathi (मराठी) language. It represents a prolonged "aa". Still, we do not stretch it.
And the "til" part is simply "till" in English, but without that extra L.
Now, here it gets tricky.
Patil is my surname that has the following pronunciation:
"Paa (पा) + Till"
But converting Indian words into Latin script should have been: "Pateel" if the classic rules were followed. But it is an established family / position name.
So, most Patil (पाटील) use "Patil" as the spelling.
Also, it is very easy for voice typing keyboards and unfamiliar people to get confused between Patil (पाटील) and Patel (पटेल).
I actually chuckle when that happens, because Patil is generally a surname in Maharashtra (महाराष्ट्र) state, while Patel is associated with our immediate neighbour, Gujrat (गुजरात). It is also nostalgic because three of my close friends from college were Patels.
When I migrated from India, non Indian people were the kindest and never made fun of me. Indian kids raised in America, would laugh at my English. They also would make fun of Indian men who asked them out, and they would say, “ eww, not with that accent”
It seems funny but this Patel girl with valley accent brings back those memories.
Bhai Ghaziabad aao

Hahaha destroyed Hank Azarias entire legacy in two seconds. I fuckin love it.
He put her down so gently...she must've been pretty lol
Stand up comedian - Hi
Audience - 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's weird. When people intentionally speak with an Indian accent it's usually denigrating. Girl is too privileged to realize her parents probably came here with nothing and lived through years of racism so she could hang out with her white friends and make fun of Indian accents.
Correct
Someone tell her... russell peter era is looong over...that people pleaser should've never been a thing in the first place actually...kudos to this guy!
Being an Indian who actually practice his culture & religion
I sympathize on her
#Wasted
Girl: I am a Pahthell....
Yes,roast your own accent to entertain me please
This lady is so aggressive
I cannot believe she openly admitted to doing that.
Know your place lady lmao
It's always the Patels 🤦🏻♀️
Comedians: it’s all about context nobody should be offended by jokes
Also some comedians:
Ok i guess I'm too Indian to understand this conversation
Brilliant response 👏🏾
That girl can't even pronounce her own surname right.
ABCD.. American born confused Desi!
As soon as you hear
I dont wanna offend anybody
You know its about to get dumb 😅
Nimesh is the only Indian American stand up comedian that I like and his jokes are funny af ❤
