Today, Amazon Prime Video unveiled the trailer of its latest unscripted original series One Mic Stand. A unique concept where the renowned faces from varied walks of life try their hand at Stand-Up Comedy for the very first time.

The five-episode Amazon Original Series showcases celebrities such as Youtube Creator Bhuvan Bam, singer & music composer Vishal Dadlani, leading actors Richa Chadda and Taapsee Pannu, and politician Dr. Shashi Tharoor push boundaries and offer a humorous take on a variety of  topics, while being mentored by top comedians to perform in front of a live audience.

The comedian and showrunner, Sapan Verma said: “The concept of One Mic Stand came to me many years ago and I’m glad that Amazon Prime Video were so supportive in making it happen. I think the idea of seeing your favourite people in a new vulnerable position is always endearing. Basically, I’ve got famous celebrities so that the show gets the views and top comedians to ensure the show is funny so that I can just sit back and not do much.”

“We continue to receive an overwhelming response to Amazon Prime Video’s comedy offering and this appreciation drives us further to bring to our customers newer formats in this genre. One Mic Stand is a unique, fresh concept and we are happy to collaborate with Only Much Louder (OML) to present yet another disruptive take on stand-up comedy. Our customers have an exciting opportunity to see some of their favourite celebrities in a never-seen-before avatar and we are certain that audiences will love this new dimension of Stand-Up comedy,” said Vijay Subramaniam, Director and Head, Content, Amazon Prime Video India.
