Vidya Balan

Let's face it; people are doing everything online these days.

If it's a legitimate way of watching film online, then I'm very happy.

Before I even knew what stand up was, I tried to make people laugh at school because that was how I made friends, so I think that's how I got drawn into comedy and obviously I was just some kid at school being silly, so the first time I saw a professional comedian and how smooth and funny the person was I totally got into standup and I would say obviously Richard Pryor was the guy.

Those that have once tasted this kind of fare will not forget it ever. Not so, my friends?
