Hi! I’m Aiesh, a bold, observational comic originally from India, now based in London. I’m currently part of the Soho Theatre Stand-Up Comedy Lab, where I’m developing for my stand-up set for the London circuit.
My comedy explores therapy, sex, and cultural chaos — all through the lens of an overthinking immigrant trying to survive British politeness and Indian parents’ expectations. I blend personal stories with sharp humour — from budget therapy sessions to family trauma, Tinder disasters, and why my dad thinks marriage is cheaper than counselling.
I’m currently preparing for my upcoming gigs, starting with Jesters Jester, and I’d love the chance to perform at South Kensington Comedy Club to test new material and connect with the London audience.
