Welcome to Oopar Oopar Ki Baatein, an #interview #talkshow with standup comedians.
I (Baneet Chhabra), a standup comedy producer/curator interviews stand-up comedians with whom I have worked closely around standup, life and everything in between. Hopping from one rooftop to another, I try to strike some earnest insightful conversations among unabashed shallow chit-chat with these comedians in this series of long-form interviews.

Have you shot any new interviews/ podcasts or whatever u like to call these?

[@BaneetChhabra]

@@ashmaityes there are more episodes shot already. Will upload soon

[@ashmait]

@@BaneetChhabra if I may ask, how are you managing the economics of this? No venue cost, no guest ki fees but equipment z shooting, editing cost kafi hai.. does the miniscule UA-cam revenue help in covering costs ya kuch aur chakkar hai?
