The kshitiz podcast : vivek samtani Shocking Truth Behind His Success"
Alright, let’s cut to the chase—this episode of The Kshitiz Podcast is all kinds of insane. I sat down with Vivek Samtani, a guy who doesn’t give a damn about playing it safe. He’s blunt, hilarious, and living proof that you don’t need to follow the “safe” route to make it big. From engineering to stand-up comedy, this guy flipped the script, made people laugh, and made money while at it.
But wait, it gets crazier. Vivek’s audience-building strategy? He literally used his *girlfriend’s dating app account* to promote his shows. Genius or borderline psychotic? You decide. Either way, it worked. The guy went viral, and now he’s out here rubbing shoulders with the big dogs of comedy like Samay Raina.
How Much Money Is In This Game?
We all love a good laugh, but does comedy actually *pay*? Vivek doesn’t shy away from breaking down the numbers. He spills the tea on how much comedians charge for brand deals on our The kshitiz podcast , how YouTube pays, and whether he’s hit that magical *1 crore* mark yet. Spoiler alert: If you think comedians are just struggling artists, you’re in for a reality check.
And if you’re an aspiring comedian, wondering whether to chase *money or fame* first—Vivek gives it to you straight. No sugarcoating, no motivational fluff, just pure unfiltered truth.
The Ugly Side of Comedy
It’s not all applause and standing ovations. The comedy industry is *cutthroat*, and Vivek gets real about competition. Who’s making crazy money? Who’s struggling? And how does he handle the *audience reactions*—especially when diving into *dark humor* and *sensitive topics*? Not every joke lands well, and some people just don’t get the humor. So how does he balance making people laugh *versus* making them laugh *at themselves*?
Speaking of struggles—ever disappointed your parents? Vivek has. And he talks about that too. He went from a stable engineering career (which Indian parents *love*) to cracking jokes on stage (which Indian parents *fear*). Their reaction? You’ll want to hear it straight from him.
His Biggest Show, Biggest Mistake & The Next 5 Years
Everyone has *that* one moment that changed everything. For Vivek, it was his *biggest show*—and yeah, it was nerve-wracking. But even the best screw up, and he also shares his *biggest mistake* on this wild ride.
But where’s this all going? Does stand-up comedy have *real* scope in India? And what’s Vivek’s *next big move* to increase ticket sales and grow in this crazy industry? Five years from now—will he still be doing stand-up, or is he planning something even bigger?
Dating, Relationships & The One Breakup That Changed Everything
This episode isn’t just about comedy and money—it’s also about love, heartbreak, and *learning from your ex*. Yep, Vivek’s first relationship gave him *insights into women’s issues* (I know, right?) and shaped his perspective on life. But more importantly, it taught him a golden rule about relationships—one that every guy needs to hear.
We also talk about why some cities react differently to comedy. Are Mumbai audiences harder to impress than Delhi ones? What’s the *weirdest* audience reaction he’s ever gotten? And when things go south, how does he recover?
The Final Takeaway – One Best Advice for Life
The episode wraps up with one golden question—*what’s the best advice Vivek has ever received?* No fluff, no fake inspiration, just a real, practical lesson that can change how you approach life and success.
Oh, and we play a little *game time* at the end—because what’s a podcast without some fun?
*Final Words*
If you’re a comedy fan, an aspiring stand-up, or just someone who loves hearing insane success stories, this episode is for you. It’s packed with drama, laughter, and serious learning.
Vivek Samtani is not just another comedian—he’s an entrepreneur in his own right, building his brand, navigating competition, and *making real money* in an industry most people don’t take seriously. So if you still think comedy is just about *fun*, think again. And watch this episode on our youtube channel The kshitiz podcast , because *this* is where the real talk happens.
