As the show began, Radhika and Aditya Bhargava from the city gave a beautiful performance describing the TV shows of today. Later, Rajit Kapur’s act in Kachre Ki Hifazat brought the house down, while, Shikha Talsania as the dulhaniya had everyone roaring with laughter as a bride-to-be Gurpreet who, before her wedding to her boyfriend of seven years, begins to question everything about their relationship. The Laughing Hyena had Neil playing a DJ in Mumbai battling bans and bands and out of tune singers. In Keeda Saala, Zafar Karachiwala played a junior Hindi film actor talking about life in a chawl, while Gagandev in TC Rasbihari had the audience fully sympathising with him as he played the character of a ticket collector who keeps getting abused, mostly for no fault of his.
