Chetan Singh will never forget New Delhi public transport

Since moving to Adelaide from Delhi at the age of twenty-one, Chetan Singh has been a runner-up at the prestigious RAW comedy competition and opened for some of the biggest names in Indian comedy. We listen to some of his best jokes, including one about his attempts to destroy small talk in Australia. He talks to Aditya about finding white men with long hair intimidating, the joys of catching the bus in India, not knowing what 'crank it up' meant, struggling to produce comedy shows in an industry dominated by white Australians and more.

Chetan Singh is an Indian Australian stand-up comedian, also known as Delhi Boy. He was the 2022 RAW Comedy Australia runner up.

It was like heaven. It was on the first day, on the way from Adelaide airport to the accommodation, that I decided I would never go back. But then I lived at a backpackers and immediately wanted to go back.
