Zakir Khan: Tathastu

It has funny stories from his childhood, family relationships and the journey of Zakir's Life throughout.

This show specially focuses of his relationship with his Grandfather and how the presence of a person is important in life.

The way he got transformed to the character of his grandfather with time, it's about that and how our thinking changes with time.

One thing really important at a certain point of time is not even relevant after sometime and that's how it is actually.

"Professional Success is temporary, But Personal Loss is Permanent"

That sums it up all. A must watch for all. Thanks for reading this.

How many colours can a man have?

Tathasthu is a roller coaster ride of emotions, drama, laughter and beats of realness in the story.

If there was a ship sailing in the sea, Zakir could have escaped it from the waves. How can someone in a real sense describe the journey so well.?

Every emotion, Every vocal that has come out from your heart has reached your audience. It made me cry to the core that I started missing my Grandparents.

Sometimes the loss you have gives power to you but it keeps you so grounded that you started acting like the person you hated once.

Love you to the core Zakir bhai !!!

Once you said in a program, Itne qabil bano sahab k kisi din bethakr biryaani khaaye saath !!

I am so overwhelmed and so proud of you.

Love you Always bhai.

Dont have words to define it. This one was beautiful. Simply beautiful. Any standup special can make you laugh. This one will make you cry your heart out as well. By the end you will feel so pure and fresh that the experience will stay in your mind for days.

Zakir is the GOAT for a reason. His storytelling abilities are beyond any other comedian.

The whole show is a tribute to his grandfather. His relationship with him, and his grandfather's legacy that he has left behind.

He has a knack to make you so familiar with the person that by the end you will feel emotional attachement to him. Absolutely worth watching.

Zakir Khan is way above Standup Comedy. He is an unmatched & brilliant Storyteller. "Tathastu" is HIS story and I as an audience could visualize & feel his every word.

I've watched numerous performers of storytelling, poetry, comedy, music etc. Online, but what Zakir made of himself and the grab he has over storytelling is out of this world and "Tathastu" is an example of this Out of The World storytelling.

The story revolves around him growing up in a joint family where 3 generations live alongside and how the 3rd (latest) generation feels of the prior generations. The plot is full of observations, comedy, painful emotions and very effective life lessons.

One such lesson is "Professional Goals are less than Personal Loss". For the context of this, Watch the Show & I guarantee you won't regret.

The specials works best for you when you know the guy to some extent, his sense of humor, his narration style and some major achievements in his life such as his Delhi Girl stand-up video. This standup special is unlike something you've ever seen, Instead of 25 different bits, Zakir tells different stories about his life, both hilarious and heartbreaking. To be able to take an audience from side-splitting laughter to tears with just a turn of phrase is astounding and Zakir does so with aplomb. He very casually shares words of wisdom that it is so beautiful to watch. I had a smile on my face throughout the show because that is how well Zakir connects with his audience.

The special makes you feel bad for not getting to watch it live.

It is beautiful. Even if you're not that big a fan of standup comedy, you should just watch the show for the experience.
