From Saree not Sorry to Sareeously not Sorry, comedian Sharul Channa’s work often starts with everyday observations and builds into something more layered. Trained in acting and now with over 15 years in stand-up, she has performed across different audiences and contexts. SBS Hindi caught up with her over a mix of cheeky laughs and sober reflections while she was in Melbourne for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
