Some Lesser Known Facts About Sumit Anand

  • Sumit Anand is a well known comic in the Indian comedy circuit who is known for his laid-back effortless comedy.
  • Sumit was born in Haryana and always had a flair for public speaking; however, according to Sumit, he barely used to speak in his native town as he felt uncomfortable while conversating with locals. Later, when he became an established stand-up comedian, in most of his shows, he often started making jokes about the general conversations he had witnessed while growing up in his native place. 
  • Sumit in his blog (chantanand blog) mentions that his real name is Amit; however, he, later, changed this name because a tea vendor’s son near his house also had the same name and later mocks the classism he showed at a very tender age. He also mentions that his average performance at school usually disappointed his parents and criticizes the Indian educational system in every possible way.
