SPEAKER_03

Welcome back to another episode of Two Piece in a Pot. And uh today's episode is extremely special to us because the guest is extremely special to us.

SPEAKER_01

But before that, this episode by itself is going to be a one that is super special. And a super special episode deserves a super special guest because this is our first episode in our very own studio. Our very own office space, our very own two-piece in a car studio. So we're like super happy and super excited to be shooting our favorite, absolutely favorite guest on the show today. And she's our first Gen Z guest. Miducha, come on, come and join us. Hi guys, hello, hello, hi. I'm so happy you could be a part of this.

SPEAKER_02

Me too. Hi. Hi, hi guys. Hi. Oh my gosh, I'm kind of turnless a little bit. Loki, don't miss us. Yeah, it looks like you got comfortable. I'm a little comfortable with my little coffee and uh Mitra Fala. But uh I'm geared to spill some beans of all my life. Oh I'm so excited to have you because I think this is the first time I've not prepped for an episode because it's just going to be like sitting around with a friend. And I'm gonna try so hard not to mirror your accent back to you because I've been struggling with that. I've been speaking like you guys, I'm like that kungi. I've been adding only terrible thing now. So yeah. Are you happy to be here? Of course, I'm happy to be here, and congratulations on your very own studio. Yeah, we can.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, thank you. Okay, Mari's killing your guys' outfit now.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, before we get into all of it, how long have we been planning this? Like, oh girl, every time you come to Chennai, we should like and I think you were planning on coming uh way before this once I got cancelled because you were coming along with your Akka and then it got cancelled and ended up so happy that you I should have made it happy in Thai. Yeah, had uni for a while, and I was just like, I need to go somewhere where I can just be a bit creative, needed a little break from home because sometimes, especially with writing jokes and all at home, when you stay with the same environment all the time, it gets young and you don't know what to talk about anymore.

SPEAKER_03

I'm glad we've been giving you content. But then again, you know, you're so amazing, you're doing so many different things, right? But but tell us. Yeah, go on, go on.

SPEAKER_02

What do you mind? I first I first wanted uh wanted our audience that are listeners who do not know who need to chat or meet the chat is to tell us where she comes from first. A little background, a little history about you. So um I was born and raised in Muncho, Canada, and I parents still live Yalpar. They were they're from Yalpar Nushulakka. So yeah, that's where I'm from, and I have two oldest brothers and one older sister, and they were all oral parts. So kid and true and key. But Sasha is like that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. So when people ask you, okay, where are you from, what do you generally say? It's so hard. Like almost every day the last few days, someone asking you that.

SPEAKER_02

So I think I say Montreal. Yeah. And because it's like it's so hard, it's like this dual life. Yeah. But obviously, if it's, you know, people diagnosed um Yal Parmin, I'll be like, I'm from Yal Padum, but not everyone knows what Yal Partner is, right?

SPEAKER_05

So when people that I just meet, I'll be like, Yeah, I'm from Montreal, Canada. But if you dig through, you'll get all the different layers. I'll be like, Yal Param, cook with it.

SPEAKER_02

That's my village. Yeah, that's my village I'm from, you know, kind of present. Nice. So, did you always, always um want to be so you are a stand-up comedian. And tell us a little bit about where you or where you started, because there are a lot of people, a lot of people who are doing what you're doing, and uh uh, you know, give them a little insight on where you've gotten, like your journey, right? Like honestly, I got very lucky into in being introduced to stand-up comedy because I see a lot of different comments, especially in Chennai, that work so hard without a platform, a social media platform that's doing mics every single day to get where they want to be.

SPEAKER_05

But I got very lucky. I uh have my uh friend Uzing Sundari, he's the one who introduced me to stand-up comedy. Before this, when I was 17, I would do like TikTok videos. So that's where I started. It's TikToks. And I even going to Instagram, I was like, I'll never post on Instagram. That's just feels kind of crazy to be. So I have never Instagram feels a bit too official, no?

SPEAKER_02

TikTok, you're just having fun. It says oh no, yeah. Oh yeah, true. That's a bad year, right? Yeah, at home breakdown.

SPEAKER_05

But um, I started on TikTok at the age of 17, and I got on Instagram at 19, and I got introduced at stand-up at the age of 20. Sundar came to Montreal for his show, and he wanted me to open for five minutes. And when he asked me, I was like, Are you crazy? Like, I you really want me to cut in front of all these people and make them laugh? Like, that this sounds crazy, right? But it happened and I genuinely I'm genuinely interested in it. Um, and it's going really nice.

SPEAKER_02

I did a Europe tour and performed in New York as well, I performed in Australia, and I recently just did a show. And a show and Jenny as well. Yeah, I saw that. I mean I would ask you this one thing, like you know, you uh you were telling me that you know you were really nervous, but when you put out your videos on Instagram, you already had like so many people laughing at your jokes. So why? Why did you think you were so nervous?

SPEAKER_00

Is it like I don't know, but you're hearing your accent girls.

SPEAKER_02

So when I start I don't know, Instagram like orderless and like near the you know performance is very different. Because Instagram really, if anyone says something I'll be like, okay, block. But I can block you in real life, no, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But um I had one in last year's drone, like in my head, I still don't understand how far I can. I still feel like I'm just this doesn't go to the still are so young, right? You still have a long way to go and you can actually figure out the lap in my hand in the gang stuff. You've actually so much in such a uh uh young age, I want to say. And that gives you such a huge leverage on what you want to make out of yourself, the things home. It's just it's it's very I am my mom wants me to keep myself humble and not. And I think I took that very literally that if someone says, I really like your videos, I love your shows, I'll be thank you. Like when someone wants to take a picture with me, I'm pammed early because they want to take a picture and then I'm like, gosh, no way they actually take a video.

SPEAKER_05

You know, I get very excited. So in my head, it's still shocking for me that people watch my videos. Like, I don't know, it just uh it feels surreal.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so that's why like before performing the show, I need to always like round myself into thinking that yeah, people do watching videos and people are gonna laugh. Like, I don't know how that people know I'm a very anxious person. If you look at my journal, if you look at my journal before a show, like you look fine, somebody think you are forty, you are worthy, you're amazing. I'm associated, I need for you, you know. But that's that's amazing, right? That's something that not many people understand, or like, you know, uh, but the ones who are actually doing the work and getting somewhere, they all of them have that routine. They do write down, like, you know, is it like a thing you feel like an affirmation to yourself before you get on the stage? Like, you've got this. I have to, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Like, I know when when a show is not gonna go well, it's because I'm not mentally okay.

SPEAKER_05

So I have to prepare myself into being like you are funny, like I have to like gaslight myself, like you are funny, people are gonna find you funny, like you'll be cool.

SPEAKER_02

Or like your wife doesn't gaslight.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but you are funny. Like, I don't think anybody other than like I'm so so glad I can say this, like other than your family, and us can say how funny you are, because you've been living with us for a while now, and yeah, this friendship has kind of like taken its own levels and areas over the past few years from where we began to and so we're gonna desire to poston and say I can't be another man. You know?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, right. So you are really, really a funny person. So do you think that's something that uh a generation of Gen Z people struggle with? Like, you know, to be to be funny, not to be funny, you know who you are, but you get anxious because you're gonna get that up comedy the other day.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, the set from uh your friend was the was that Gen Z identified themselves to be the anxious generation.

SPEAKER_02

I think we are. COVID messed us up like yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Before COVID, I feel like I was an effort person, and then you know, like the the quarantine and lockdown and everything really like altered my brain a little bit, I feel like. Yeah. And I did like two years of college online, right? Yeah, so it just changed.

SPEAKER_02

And my anxiety, I think, got worse after being on social media because I want to make sure everything and everything is fine. So before this, I was not as anxious, but I I love my anxiety, like it really makes me want to. That's so cute.

SPEAKER_03

What is our inside of it? Yeah, I've heard.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, yeah, and the fight. Yeah, I don't like I can't fight against it all the time.

SPEAKER_02

I have to accept it. And I love being anxious. I mean, it is hard. I'm not gonna be like a lot of being asha. It is hard, but I feel like my anxiety gives me who it makes me who I am.

SPEAKER_05

I know I essentially just old can making it better and all, but I'm not gonna fight it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I think accepting it can see you uh gives it lesser power. Oh yeah, exactly. And it makes it easier for you to like kind of just hug in a little better. Like, okay, how can we work together? Yeah, right? Wait, give me calmly, yes, that's fine. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_02

I'm sure we all have different ways of coping with our anxiety. That's probably how you cope with it. Yeah, I'll be funny. Like if I know based on lap, I'll be like, this person doesn't like me. So I'll do everything. I'll be like, I just take our people like me.

SPEAKER_01

No way. Sometimes calm my girls, I'm giving my whole girl. But you are not like that. I've seen 10 new setups and in new social circles. You're not like that.

SPEAKER_03

You are not like everybody gravitates towards you, and like you see that you see that, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

We do. I know it lasts two days. The last time when she ever came down and we took it.

SPEAKER_02

I was very quiet, bro. Oh no, like this time? No, but they need to be interested in whatever saying. Yeah. Even that people did gallery towards you, like you know, how like did your parents actually understand what you were doing? Initially, yeah. Yeah, but I was like, in a lot of way, he did not understand at first. But uh as soon as I started. But how long was that for? Like, how long did that? I wanted to do videos since I was 12. But I started supposed to have that 12 years old on YouTube, on Top Smash, and on Instagram. Like, if you look at my phone, I have videos, comedy videos of me when I was 12. But my dad made me delete all of that because it's like party. But how did he know that you were on Instagram? Oh yeah. These on Instagram? Yeah, SlapDad, Instagram, all of that. All of the college, all of that. But your videos from back then are like really cute. They're really funny, you know? Honestly, my sister has to have to like if it wasn't for my sister, I wouldn't be as far. I know it sounds very emotional enough, but like it's it's genuinely the truth. She would go to my dad and be like, I would say yeah, but to kids that's fine.

SPEAKER_05

I mean, yeah, yeah, I give it a few. My sister has been a content creator like since ever. Yeah. And oh yeah, since like I think 2017. 2016 actually, and that's when I was like, wait, let me try comedy. And I coasted, and then my dad. He was like, no, full attack.

SPEAKER_02

And I see not your phone, it was an iPad. He was like, girl, I'm being a party, party to the way no, I'm gonna go for and then I had to delay him. And then when I was done of school, and I was solid. You asked for the phone trim. No, no, I got my phone.

SPEAKER_05

I went to I worked at supporting. So I mean I got my phone and all, and I was like, you know, now I'm gonna post videos.

SPEAKER_02

Hey, yeah, my supposed history.

SPEAKER_05

No, that was true.

SPEAKER_02

But like um, from there to you did a show uh for Tamar Heritage Mata Ponce, am I right? Yeah, yes. It up January at the time. Tower Heritage Month. So in front of about 1500, 2000 people. I don't know. 3000. Wow, I know 2500. Uh, 2005. And your parents came, you brought them on stage. And how did they feel that? Like, Amma was like, that's when she realized that, like, you know, she actually started crying, and uh, it was a very emotional day. Like, that thing made me realize why I'm doing what I'm going, seeing that many common people in a in a room where like we came as refugees to the country and now we're buddying all together to watch like you know, coming Canadian artists. It was really cool to see that like other community we came together for for that night and laughing and just enjoy the night. And you were just yeah, I was in Dannery. Let's only say he's so purpose. It's very thanks to Sunder. Like he delayes in me so much. You know, I'm like the Yeah, you know, you oh I feel you always need that one mentor in whatever field you choose for them to like, you know, kind of tell you what to do, what not to do, and guide you through all the things.

SPEAKER_03

And it's so amazing that you have a good one, like you know, to kind of navigate through the whole standal comedi thing, you know, honestly. And the fact that he really saw that in you, you know, he really saw that you had that potential to I would crash up to all this.

SPEAKER_02

Sorry? I would crash out to him all the time. I'd be like, I don't know if I can do this anymore. I want to delete Instagram, I wanna be Logian, like shut up.

SPEAKER_04

Kind of woodwin and throwing so I I mean I'm sure it was such a moment because I have seen videos of your parents, uh I I've seen your parents in your videos, and I've seen how they, you know, they've also transformed because in the beginning they were like, even in the videos, they weren't so a part of the video, right? They weren't a part of your content, but now they have accepted it and they've kind of grown into accepting that you know they they are famous too.

SPEAKER_03

And anybody who knows me to chat knows her parents, knows her sister, and all of that. So, how did how did your parents kind of come to accepting that?

SPEAKER_02

When they started getting Vikingas like Koyel and like Tamil Supermat, I'm like, dig nan, they care anyway when they can't do pretty first sighted. I'm like, I made you girl, I'm made you girl So when they go to Koyel and all, they would be like the IS would go, like well and they'll be like, So that's when they realize they're like, oh my god, great. You know, people watch and the community loves it too, right? Right. So that's when they were like, sometimes my dad will come from the video salah. So cute, they can't really be, yeah, huntabo.

SPEAKER_04

The business of your parents tearing up at your uh show is so wholesome. So many people who really, you know, even in the comment section, they address him. They always are like, oh, uncle, like how I said, Oh, uncle, now I've got a pan. You know? So there are so many people who uh really see how your family is an integral part of who you are. And would you say that is true?

SPEAKER_02

Like your family has truly inspired you to be this person, 100%. Yeah, with contempt. Yeah, like all my jokes and all my videos about what my parents say to me or what my sister, or like, you know, being in a in a family where I'm the youngest with like older siblings. So my brother is 35, the other one is 34, my sister is 30. There's so much comedic thing that happens within the family. Like, I only have two parents, I have like five. You know, so there's so much to talk about. Yeah, especially having siblings and parents like that was born and raised in Sri Lanka coming here, and you know, me being like just a bit from a different, you know, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Like accepting two different cultures, like playing with you know, being Canadian outside and being Tamil at home.

SPEAKER_02

There's so much to talk about. Like I would go to school, and then the next day my mom, like Nikki Sangiam classic, Neki Tam classic, and the Y Saiya Same classic, just so like Hinduism, yeah. Not like so much like I live like Ham Montana split life laying out. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So growing up, what was the one cartoon that you watched growing up?

SPEAKER_02

Like one of these things, some cartoons, like a series, because you were born in Montreal, Canada, and then there's a household of people because I honestly feel you are uh the most Gen Z person in my life, but who is not anything like a Gen Z. Okay, like you know dogs. Oh my gosh. My friends dab was directing it. So no money, we cannot play my mom again. My mom was working dab. If my mom kept polangle, I go snap thing next day. It's like as soon as I hear the call on the thing, I'm like, oh my gosh, tell her.

SPEAKER_01

So it's like so you that's what I'm coming to say. I feel you like it now.

SPEAKER_02

How did you keep up? Because it's always like over here, people are trying to be somebody else growing up. Like, I think that was a one-stark character trait of mine that got me so far. The only thing that kind of put us apart was we were never people who would go up and say, Oh, India Kalan Tamar Tirala. In fact, if I said that, they would claim it. It's the I said, yeah. So it's like you growing up in that place and then you coming here. So, how is that for you? Like I in our generation, only we had people like that, so I can only imagine how it must have been, how it is for you right now, right? Like the Gather Shock. Because when my friends met you um recently when we all had that beacon getaway, my girlfriend was so impressed with all the songs that you she you've officially become her uh I think I thought I was her most favorite person. Like, she's like, you know what? I like her too.

SPEAKER_01

And forget that.

SPEAKER_02

Odyssey was a huge culture shock for me coming here. With all the references that people do with Hollywood movies, I'm like, bro, I grew up in Pariapa. Like, you can't be talking about Hollywood to me, you know. Since I grew up with in Canada, like being Tamil fled, like that's what I had for me. And I wouldn't be this far without being Tamil.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, like without showing my culture. Not people who like any type of ethnicities from immigrant families, they watch my videos, not only Tamil people. Like I get recognized outside by like Asians or uh coding.

SPEAKER_02

Like in anything now, you know, that has immigrant families, but it just is important to keep your culture because you think that you have to show and that's one thing that you know we have to leave in Sri Lanka to go to Canada. So we're gonna show it no matter what, we're not and isn't tightened to the wallets, yeah. And that's my identity being a Dhamul Khani. I think the most beautiful things you've said here on this podcast, because that's something no, really, because I honestly feel people should really own where they come from, be proud of their roots, and that's the only way you're gonna shine on a global. But honestly, it was not always the case for me. Like in elementary, it was very hard growing up. Especially being the only tummy kit, brown kit.

SPEAKER_05

Like a lot of people didn't know where Sri Lanka was. So I had to be like, yeah, Vittier, to not just so I can like escape experience, yeah, right? So it was hard growing up, especially with my skin tone and all, like I would get like, oh, what is this color? Why are you gonna blah blah blah blah?

SPEAKER_02

Like a teacher came home to me after she went to Mexico and she was like, look, we're the same toe.

SPEAKER_05

No, so it was hard. Like I hated who I was when I was a kid. I don't I was like, I wished I was white. Like that's how I wish that's what like you know it happened.

SPEAKER_02

That's why after going that's going out uh through that struggle from elementary, now that I'm older, because why am I escaping that? I went through so much for being Tamil, and now that I'm aware, I'm gonna do everything that I can to be Tamil. When I say that, I I listen to Tam the Sart and I'm like, I go up on sad music. That's where you're from, like here, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they'll be like, listen to Tamskala Gaul Yatter Gitariya, like like you know, like you have to, yeah. That's why I'm very proud to be Tamil because it always it was hard being Tamil when I was a kid. I thought I sound like a nationalist, but like this is literally when I'm shocked. You know, it's uh you have to be who you are because at some point it was hard when I was in L Country, being a personal cup. Right. But when you moved around with these people, did you ever get a chance? To say this. This is how you feel about it. And that's why you know people. What's your favorite tupper song?

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You have to pick some of the song because you say this and you're a song slap. Yeah, yeah, yeah. My auntie obviously sink into my sister when she was a baby.

SPEAKER_04

Where do you feel like you really belong? Is that has that ever been a problem?

SPEAKER_02

Like now when you have when you're here in Madras, do you feel more Canadian and then you're there, you feel more Tamil, or what is it like? When I'm here, I feel like I'm too paran Tamil. Like sometimes people don't understand what I'm saying. But I know I saw your point. And I come here because I'm sparted, I'm excited to speak in Tamil, right? And when I go to Sri Lanka and I speak Tamil, they're like, the Tamil Numberang, like the kick because they think I'm talking day. And then when I go to Canada, it's like, so where are you really from? You know? So I'm just like, let me just exit. But honestly, where I do belong, I would say is being a Kamo Canadian, I feel like we're our own people. I mean, there are so much. We're so many there. And like you guys need to experience the Toronto Tamil culture. That's nothing like better than that experience. So I do feel like when people ask me where you're from, if I could say, I'll say tantari. No, right. So that's how uh when you start creating content, they did come from like a very deep place of being a Kamel diaspora and like you know, being that's how most of it is because although you were in Canada, you were talking about your household stuff, but it resonated with me. Right? Like when you actually spoke about that, I mean did a reel about that uncle who sings. Yeah, no, no, right. I know right, Mama. Every family function in Kairoki da we just want uncle anati. So these are things that although you're in a completely foreign country, these are things which resonate with people all over. Like, is that where you come from? Like, you want to talk about how you grew up, what kind of things that traumatized you who you always say that. You guys will be mad. So me like just traumatizing me so that like talking about how it's so fun, it's so fun to grow up, you know, you make a household. And uh I think my whole pay is asking identity growing up in an immigrant household. There's so much to say, like the rant to like the birthday parties, you know, like my relakara friend would be like, I went roller state, I went uh bowling and all. My mom made like 300 bars, 300 burls, invited 300 people so I can have my eighth birthday. And like the uncles they were like have fun, drink and all. The bar the parties for them, not for us, you know. So like all of that, like just growing up in that environment, there's so much to talk about.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, I'm sure, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You can't need to come to a shlakimpa birthday where you just yeah, but the next argybe. But I did take into a body corner over here. Like that was one of the things that have shocked you over here that you've done uh more like a local. I mean that there's an anker for the elevator. Yeah, there's a person that's clicking the button in a list. Like, I can't feel like I can do that. That's so now after you after you said that, I was wondering about it. I was like, yeah, why did I have to do that? And that there's there's a person of service for everything. Like, I'm just not used to that. Like, some like I went to Manjar the other day and someone opened the door for me on my door, a car door and like, yo, did he like mistaking me for Telumber? Like, I can't open the door and go, you know. Like I'm so used to doing my own thing, and that's something. And like when people see that they have drivers, that's such a cool thing for the LA.

SPEAKER_05

I drive myself around everywhere, you know. And then there's ballets everywhere.

SPEAKER_02

We have to search in our own parking, yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's a that's that was a huge culture shock for me. Yeah, there's a person of service for every kid. Yeah. And when we went to sorry, when we went to Bilan, um what's that store to buy stuff? Yeah, we went to that uh the we went to one of those stores which sell sells all storage boxes and all that. There was five people of customer service help here. Yeah, now and then they'll have to build everything, like I have to put a bag here and hold and stuff and bring anything, you know. That was crazy. We have we have people who are very uh like to take care of customer service. Yeah, that's like a job, but yeah, every yeah, yeah, yeah. Like when I was working in customer service and I know how rude I was, people would ask me, where's that thing? I'm like, shelf number eight.

SPEAKER_05

No way, yeah. I used to work at Winters. People would ask me, Well, how where can I get this up? Like song number 50.

SPEAKER_02

Why are you bothering me on my ship? But I'm breaking. Oh my god, if you ever did that, you'd get sacked immediately. Yeah. Yeah, you would like our ass, that's what you're supposed to do. Really? Like just the nauseal law yeah, just say what the thing and then you go get. That's why I do why thing you because that's what I'm used to. Yeah, to get tea or coffee from a whole sata. I'll be like, hi it, you don't mind. Why are you being here? What has been the highlights of your trick so far? Starting time with you guys. Oh I know, but sorry, but it'll be happening. Nothing beats being with the family, the country that you're visiting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You just feel so much more welcome. And I feel like I just got endulted by you. Yeah, and I also feel the most enduring thing that I've ever seen you do is chill with both the boys. Yeah, like as much. Like that's like the most enduring thing for me. Is just that relationship. Oh, I will nice so much. They were so annoyed that he did not, like, you know, come and say hi to you or be friends with you over the week.

SPEAKER_01

And when he met his other friends, they're like, like, your heart, I've got up to Z for B. Like, oh, like the most curious thing that I'm ever seeing.

SPEAKER_02

Like, you know, honestly, she was like my own nephews, my own two little nephews. And D hopefully didn't still memory me. Yeah. Of course they will. Of course they were. Come by like when I'm fifty, and they'll be like, about 20 years. But you wouldn't recommend it. You literally asked you dry yesterday, you cup get your bad step. What do you expect? I don't know. Because every time I go to temple, I always feel I'll find one auntie that comes up to me right and they're like, Nan don't need to keep it like if fifty andties are saying, what did my mom ever carry me? My mom would be like, answer it, so you probably held me up for like two minutes. Today I really love the way how um Palatra from Atra Styling has done her clothes. We are all dressed in all about June, which is why a very dear friend of mine, Korhiba. I did not know about it until I came this morning to the studio that I'm wearing all about June. I just saw the clothes and I loved them. Yeah, uh about June from the House of Gatsby.

SPEAKER_04

Yes. And they do pure linen luxury clothing. It's uh summer staples, everyday essentials, and it's it and their tagline also is I think all about summer, all about clothes and all about you.

SPEAKER_02

So I need to memorize that. Oh, the villain will memorize that. But nevertheless, the clothes look fabulous. Do you like what you're wearing too, Mr. Sha? I loved it on you. Very good. You look really chic. This is something that you totally wear. 100%. Is this something?

SPEAKER_04

Yes, I yeah, which is what I really like about Kalatra also. You just need to tell her how you want to feel, and she just gets the outfits, you know.

SPEAKER_02

I feel very confident and you're very comfortable. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So today the jewelry that we were wearing is from Shivasui's The Amethyst Store.

SPEAKER_02

And I had the pleasure of meeting the siblings because Rhea used to work closely with them. And today we're wearing the fine silver jewelry collection from the Swarovski collection, if I'm not wrong. And it looks absolutely gorgeous.

SPEAKER_03

I've worked with uh the Amethyst store all year as well, and they have some amazing jewelry, but this collection especially feels like something I could wear on an everyday basis and just look absolutely stunning. It's beautiful, I honestly.

SPEAKER_02

I'm about home with it. Even I quite it's your way of I think. You know, I try to put it on the re finger and a school party girl. So I miss I look back on my index finger. Do you remember the first time you posted a content? It meant why do you remember the exact moment which one it was? Yes, it was on TikTok and uh it was a video that I did with my cousins. It's a very Canadian TikTok, but I was so excited that it got so much likes, and I kept on like just scrolling the whole night out like, oh my god, like I'm famous, so I'm going to LA. Oh my god. So you you you uh have to use Wayons? Probably. Probably. You know, every time I post a video, I like it first because you gotta get the ball yet. 100%. I like all my photos too, like the ones. I watch my I post Instagram stories so I can watch. Is that is that oh yeah, that's true. But is that how it really works? Like, do you need to post something in like your own style? No, no, I don't do it because I need to support you and Maniana Yala over. But which was the one on Instagram? Is it the one that I think it is? Which one?

SPEAKER_01

Nakamuka thing.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_02

No, that was that was kind of like after. But I think it's a I also my videos started getting views because I already had a set of uh base on uh TikTok.

SPEAKER_05

But the one that really opened me to a whole new like audience, especially in uh Chennai, was that Mudeji video.

SPEAKER_00

Oh really? But then down wonder. No wonder.

SPEAKER_01

But this was like before COVID or after COVID when the video? No, anyone? No, generally your entire popularity. Well, any kind of social media platform. Oh, it's after COVID.

SPEAKER_02

Uh so it happened during the whole COVID time, but yeah, I didn't have way too much time on my hands. So that's how I thought anyway. Good use of eh. Thank you. So, what do you have? Like, if you had to give one piece of advice to all the content creators out there, because the other day, uh, when I went someplace, uh, so we had this interactive Q ⁇ A sessions, and I honestly did not know because I feel I have so much to learn from you. Although I don't resonate myself, I don't relate to being a content creator. Although we do do a podcast and it is content by the end of the day, it goes on Instagram. But the past few days you've told me, hey, you gotta like, you know, put yourself, uh put your podcast out there.

SPEAKER_01

Like more of that needs to go and stuff like that. So, what do you have like a piece of advice or like a business of words from the wise? Because you've done it all by yourself. You never like later on, maybe you'd have gotten like you know into a talent agency in Canada or whatever, but that all came much later, is what I'm assuming, right?

SPEAKER_02

Like, but you why do keep that seriously? So I mean, I was just like, Lemme, it's two pieces of power, right? Oh okay. So what happened is so great. Yeah. One piece of advice that I would bring, but this is getting so serious. You can just give it to me like how you tell me. One piece of advice that I would give to everyone that starts content is be the most authentic version of yourself. You don't have to follow trends all the time. Just be you, just post whatever you want, however you want.

SPEAKER_05

As if you're like you, you're how you're having fun with your cousins, and like that's how I like looked at it. And you don't have to pressure yourself by being consistent. You post whenever you want. Like, don't take it too seriously by be like, I need to be consistent. Let it be organic, and whatever that's needed for you will come to you.

SPEAKER_02

Did you ever expect that you're gonna go by it like this? Like when you asked your first thing? No. But ever since I was a kid, I always knew that I wanted to be this. So I knew that there's some there it is gonna happen one way or another, but I never thought that it's gonna go out of way one, city, here, chinek, dear in two pieces. Yeah. Yeah, I didn't think that like it. I thought it was genuinely gonna be people from Montreal, Tamil people from Montreal that are watching my videos. I didn't think it's gonna teach Green International. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What you seek is seeking you. Yeah, well, Tatiana. I didn't see a human. Also, I wanna know, like, there's this one thing which I won't ask now, I'm so nervous.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, like your content and your videos, like it has grown along with you. Don't you think so? Your comedy has also like kind of like uh changed with your experiences because your comedy is mostly because of the experiences you had and the trauma or like how we laugh about our trauma with dark humor.

SPEAKER_02

I think that was one of the things that I bonded on. So I was like, oh my god, this makes sense, right? My content did change the more I got uh recognized, and the more I'm getting older too. Like, right now I'm talking about my parents and all, but like when I'm 26, 27, what am I gonna talk about? A grown-ass woman gang screened that by her parents, still? Like, what am I gonna talk about? You also I need to get it to all the different traumas, like getting married. Yeah, that's not for the week. Yeah, that's yeah, for the week already for the week. But um, and also like before I would talk about like you know, artists from here, I would like make fun of them because it's comedy, right? Now, as people from the industry starting to follow me, I'm like, you're not saying anything at all again. Oh my god, but but this is another thing I wanted to ask you about. So stand-up comedy is like that, right? Yeah, I guess how is you not offending people in a very, very deep level, which I don't think anybody does, but there are like you know, stand-up comedians abroad, like you know, there are a whole bunch of deaths that like yeah. It it does get by with making fun of like artists to a certain sense, right? Like you feel like you would never do that. No, I'm too scared. I'm too scared to make fun of like the only people I can make fun of is the people that I know, which are my parents and me and my sketch. So I find it very hard to make fun of people without offending them because I'll stress out to upset them. It's a very ethic.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, I get that. I get that. Yeah, they they I I feel like you should hold yourself to like some level of accountability or like define your brand of comedy. I think if I I hope I can say that, but yeah, that's amazing. But um tell us a little about how it is to grow up with a bunch of siblings at home. Like you're the last one, you have three older siblings. People all know that you know Bri Sugar is your sister, because the first time that when we did this two-piece in a pod, like I remember ballpark uh, you know, uh, you know, ballpark ballparking ideas with you, and then telling you like your sister and you should totally come Sunday for example that idea phase your son. Yeah, because I think that chemistry is like something that we relate to so much, yeah, right?

SPEAKER_02

Like, so how is it like going growing up with a bunch of siblings who were not from your generation at all? Right, they're all the millionaires. They kept me humble. Humble. Uh like Tiriyana, it was always fun to have him around. He was like another dad. Like, this guy would make me cry on the dining table. Like, teaching. No, no, no, I love him. I love him. But if we watch it, no, but like it's it's very hard because my parents were really busy like working, right? So I had to go to the pretty. It was really hard because I would go to him for help. And he's not the type to be like, okay, let me help. You'd be like discipline, like you need to do this and all. So having a second dad, you know, who's like almost double my age. When I was 12, he was 24. Oh no, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

So he would help me do my homework and all. I would like my paper would end up to the teacher wet. Because I cried. No. Like math was not for me. That's almost. He cared about my life more than I did. It was six. Yeah. That was for y'all. But then if I if he's being too strict, I'll go to the second mother because he's more chill. So he will do all the homework for me. Yeah, because he just doesn't want to deal with it. And then there's my sister. Who people say somewhere? Like Hadkar has always been like my second model as well. I feel like my siblings raise me. Like, yeah, honestly.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I truly feel like your siblings do raise you uh in a sense, also, no matter how um how much your parents raise you, I think the bond with your sibling is half sibling and half pet.

SPEAKER_02

I sleep next to my sister, we sleep on my side bed, like into a five-year-old, even to this day.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, no, you're not. I totally get how cute that is.

SPEAKER_03

I remember when uh me and Anisha used to share the same room, and then when we uh shifted to another house, we got like two different rooms, and uh you know, she'd always end up in my room somehow on the night, or I'd be in her room like I mentioned.

SPEAKER_02

You would say, like, now that I have my own room, I don't think I want to be in. You know, big kid was that sounds so perpetuate. Yeah, yeah. And your room had a single bed.

SPEAKER_01

No, but I have never doing size bed, it was not a single bed per se, like a single bed. It was like a little smaller than a good size bed.

SPEAKER_02

And you would never let because a half your bed will have like pile up clothes, and the rest of it you'll just accommodate yourself in it. And what are you saying that you would invite me away? You would just so happy toilet. No, you would be so happy that you had your own space.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, because she'd be on the phone in the night, and then I just wanted to sleep. So I'd be like, okay, I'm gonna sleep in my room.

SPEAKER_02

I will invite that. No, but it's the same thing with my sister. My sister would wake up, yeah, her work, turn on the lights, and I would be sleeping. Like, manasa deal on it was so hard growing up with a sister who was seven years older, but I loved her, I love her.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but I already really missed uh my sister when she moved out after she got mad and then all of that. I remember nothing was ever the same.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, remember when you're like why you mean to be on account? Like what? You're supposed to be two pieces in a pod. But it feels like different I don't think. I don't know whether she missed me.

SPEAKER_02

Because she don't remember me going here crying after the Diwali's shopping that mom and dad forgot to feed you. No, mom and dad forgot to feed me when you went to Bangalore. Okay, yeah, oh my god, forget it and have a good morning. Oh my god, it's not that deep, bro. Chill out. Pull down, pull down. I feel like a therapist sitting on this chair about a sister therapist, such a Oh my god. You know, that's wait.

SPEAKER_03

I was about yeah, so you said that you're you were bugged a lot, right? Like in um you found it difficult growing up. But did your siblings ever play a role in uh, you know, helping you circle back to your identity or helping you feel more confident or just you know be yourself 100%? Because they have done their Zaria, right? They would they would have done this growing up over there um before you. So did they ever guide you and how what what role did they play in you becoming the person that you are?

SPEAKER_05

My sister would always help me out and all. She would be like, Don't don't like feel too sad about it.

SPEAKER_02

She would, you know, but I would come back home and be like, I took God, booy, like this happened, that's happened. It may be funny though, some category. When my sister would be like, You top them back, like say something back and all, and I'm just like, and it would be the most nicest thing. Like, she would never tell me to insult some man, like she was very nice. Like if someone But she is a bad eater, she is she is compared to me. Yeah, that's definitely the one story, yeah. My dad, like, whenever I would get buoyed, my dad she went to uh the school principal and said, be nice to my daughter, but I thought so cute!

SPEAKER_00

Oh my god!

SPEAKER_02

You haven't done anything in the kids. I'm fighting my hair. So cute. Yeah, my dad always remember. My mom, I'm gonna go to the house. I can't, I can't I I I I relate to that because I remember one time when I was in 10th grade, I went one cup to my mom, and I told all my friends are leaving the school, so I feel so so sad and I feel so depressed. I don't think I can go to school, like in 11th and 12th or the same school. She's like, I'll never say a point. Yeah, it's always I was like, girl, you don't get it.

SPEAKER_01

But the same lady today, if Rudra comes and says, I don't feel like going to school, and then children like Rudra is a little upset about going to school.

SPEAKER_02

Maybe something happened. Maybe last third time or where any grandparents like they get more nicer when they're back in that field. Any of my siblings, nephews, and nieces, like and my parents are very there is your content, that's your drone. Yeah, oh that's a huge job. My mom would be wearing that. I feel like I have a nicotine, so my husband. Oh my god, the way my mom takes care of that. Like every Friday, she'd like to saw me. Yes today. Yeah. Yeah. He takes a shower every Friday. He does a meetup Fridays. Oh yeah, I didn't like that having this really deal. He does clothes, your mom's mom's good, and clothes. And comparing myself to an eye, no, but a monk. My monk, like I'm putting in your plugging. And I'll give you a bug. My monk is down on the time. I think everyone knows that a South Asian monk and a dog is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that is totally, that's that's totally true. Because when I when we got a pup, uh, when we want to get a pup, because my mom had a dog with her for a very long time and he passed away. Well, we were in grade six. Like, and it she felt so bad. Then we wanted a uh pup at home, and she did not want to go through that heartbreak all over again. So she'll be like, naya, na na. My mom said that. Oh, my mom was like, if we say something bad about him. She'll be like, place of the numb and just saying, bro, but I love Vera. She's like my I just feel like the letter because I'm just laughing. I forgot that I was supposed to be hosting the next time.

SPEAKER_01

But Vera has not been a part of our trip this time. Yeah, I've never seen Vera. Why did we not see Vera? But you didn't see everybody else.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, even I haven't seen Vita and I eat for me. My mom would be like, okay, I'm so busy living your life though.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. How is it then over here for you? Tell us a little about that. Like, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Um, I mean uh audience. At first, so I'm staying at Raisinarashad's house for like a month now. Yeah. And at first I was very, very, very shy. I couldn't, I would, I would stay in the room until they would wake up to go have breakfast.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you're burning and I was so shy at first, but I think I started warming up. I think after day 10, I started warming up.

SPEAKER_00

Right? Oh, sorry, after day two.

SPEAKER_02

I was just out at shy, but now we're doing bulti. Balti. Do you remember the video I took yesterday? I asked him to go buzz. Yeah, whatever. Then the video I took a few. Yeah. It's still high in a half week we're going to do it. So you are a Gen Z, but then you've grown up with millionaires, right?

SPEAKER_03

So how do you like, do you what do you relate to to more? I uh I mean, is it that you feel half Gen Z, half millionaire?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I think that I'm a bit of both. Um I don't know, this generation question is kind of hard to understand. Uh like I feel like I got the best of both worlds.

SPEAKER_05

Like, I can be vibing with someone who was born in 2012 if I wanted to.

SPEAKER_02

I can be vibing with someone that was born in 1992. And 58, yeah. Yeah, give them all. Yeah. I know all Muslims. I think more than generation thing is like just me, I don't know. Honestly, yeah. I honestly believe it's because of having those three siblings who belong to a millennial generation, right? Like, and you have this strong influence growing up, and then you go out, step outside of uh uh office. Why am I wanna say office? Step outside home, and then you go into it.

SPEAKER_00

You know you're being not knowing. Focus, focus, focus, focus, focus.

SPEAKER_02

It's a flip, this is a flip, it's a flip.

SPEAKER_01

All right, so I feel like you've got the best of both worlds, like it is as you said. But I want to know, like, you know, back in the days, how was it fire?

SPEAKER_03

You guys talking about this is not the medication.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, okay, okay, all right, all right, okay. So, yeah, back in the day, like back in the day, what the fuck, how back are we going up?

SPEAKER_01

Sorry, yeah. Okay, no problem. Okay, all right. No, okay, okay, let's make time. Let's make it. So I really want to know. What I want to know is how different is the dating game?

SPEAKER_02

Because back for us, I am so used to boys bringing me flowers. And then I ended up dating and marrying a guy whose only love language was flowers.

SPEAKER_01

And you know, so flowers. Do you ever get like a bunch of flowers, girl? It's so pretty.

SPEAKER_02

I don't get that. But uh, yeah, there are years to get it. Because there's one thing that I never like, you know, no, because you're my only Gen Z friend, I think, like properly, properly. Like the rest of them are like fake Gen Z. No fake Gen Z. It could be, like, you know, because they're very like me. No, so the only guy other bunch of Gen Z's I hang out with are the athletes. So they're even more stricter than me. They're hitting the bed by eight o'clock, yeah. Waking up by five o'clock. Honestly, I think dating is kind of I believe social media cube romance and dating. You know, you you know too much about about someone even before getting to know someone, right? Yeah, right. Okay, I know why. Yeah, topics people would be like, oh no, I can't look at this story now. I can't like if I like this story, they'd be the thing I'm hitting on them. So it's like I always want to meet someone that's like I want to meet someone organically.

SPEAKER_05

I think the best thing you can do in your 20s, and I'm saying this to everyone, is to focus on yourself because you're gonna be married and you're gonna be having kids for the rest of your life. And this is the only time you can take time for yourself.

SPEAKER_02

So I think travel, meet people, work on yourself, and yeah, is this a cup like a moment? It is I kid it, no? Yeah, claiming that beer that you make. No, but honestly, I think we think like I woke up my mom who was not able to always follow her dreams, and had kids at the age of 20. And I and so you're saying at age 20, I can't even go and take the mayor from the mayor boss alone. But she was married and had kin. And she always told me, she's like, Muza, you will you will be married one day when you're like 30 and all. But your 20s take the time to learn new things, neatly for travel, and really cut that side for yourself.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not gonna always have this sign for myself. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So you're like me, just take care of myself then. Oh, maybe you will get a nanny, girl. I'm a nine girl. But I am. I think a nanny in Canada at that point I need to sell it, sell my arm and leg. And arm and leg, you won't you would give me so I gotta I gotta do my thing. So let me just take care of myself. There is moments that I'm like, especially when I'm traveling alone. I'm like, oh, it won't be nice to ask someone, like you would be nice.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but these years are for expense.

SPEAKER_02

So don't get burned again.

SPEAKER_03

Even on a day, even on a normal day and maritime, you know. It is we we we all are just chilling on the couch. Even here, when you're sitting here on this couch on two pieces in a pod episode, all I can think of is how proud your parents would be, you know, for the journey that they've had, for the land that they had to eat, and the life that they had to lead back and move to a different country and mingle with different people and build a whole new life altogether, and so many struggles that they probably will never speak about that they'd overcome. And then to have you and to see you grow and shine and you know, be this amazing person that you are. I'm sure the feeling that they probably had nobody can explain it or nobody can word it and do justice to it.

SPEAKER_04

You know, it's so amazing that uh you've had such a journey. You have this history and you come from this uh extremely colorful uh life, and you've chosen to do stand-up comedy, which is which brings such lightness, you know?

SPEAKER_03

And I think I'm so proud of you when I see you. Yeah, I'm so proud of you, and I'm I'm so in awe of you. Even your brother Sanjay he'll be the one who's most proud because he kept him in discipline.

SPEAKER_02

Discipline hotel. So Mathan had that discipline. No, I'm sure like all of them are like super proud of you. Your sister, your sister Mull, and everyone. I'm sure, I'm sure like all of them. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You get so many opportunities. Yeah, recognize you and tell you very full. Hey you know what? I already know you're so cute and they do drishti and all. I think that's really amazing. So you've done a great show. Good night.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I think we should take it to our so yeah. I think your journey has been like phenomenal. Like, you know, from where you've gotten to where you are right now and the places you're going to be after this. I can own I can't even imagine. And I think I'm going back to a lecture hall after this. I'm still used to it. But it's like harm or like I said. I perform, then I back into lecture alone. No, but that's amazing that you can I'm sure you mean it's not the same as how college is over here. It's really demanding, I'm sure. But it's great that you're getting a degree and not just giving it up for like, you know, what the the fame that you've entered into right now. I'm sure you make more than half your peers. You're funding yourself in college and all of that. And you've not taken your eyes away from the prize, which is getting it in it, like I don't know, but parents did hard like worked hard to come all into Karabas, so that's really psychic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And there's nothing more amazing than a political science major who does spend a comedy corner. I don't even that sounds so like customized human, no? You would do it. And Iran when you make it to Hollywood, then that'll be like a nice. Yeah, uh, yeah. Think up a people. You are going to the water bear because you have your heart in the right case. Yes. Okay. Moving on to our apichoir. What is the one food that you had over here that you've got to taste over here? Because I know we have a lot of like common food like putte, the upper paratap, all of that, and kaiikol, and all of that. But there is a one food over here that you have tasted for the first time. I think I'm a lot, but we'll defend forever. I think putty. I knew it.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know why I just knew it.

SPEAKER_02

Like an was a thing until I came here because I don't think Sharankins do that. I know thing. I don't I don't want to talk to every Sri Lankan or every sunkins, but like at my house, we don't do that. And like when Ray Shoney with the Edina and the Sava was like, oh my god, what is this arts and cry? Like I had so much fun and it was really good. And I think I'm gonna definitely buy some for you from my lap. Yeah, we'll make it out. You remember the ones that we make it at home? Yeah, different kinds of it, but you're in the culture is very different compared to ours. Ah, yeah. Maybe because it's store-bought, right? Or like in that food better, it's very difficult to ferment and you have to put it inside. No, my mom's is more soft, and you get is more like crispy. Yeah, we like crispy though. And like my mop is like uh egg, or like inside the culture, so we call it like muta kosa. Oh yeah. So it's like very different, you know. I don't know. Like I think I'm enjoying how it's your wine. Oh that'd be a really made you one of us. Canada tough one, right? I've I literally heard you rant about it, like everyone. I don't know how my answers does it. Like, I know I know it sounds crazy that I'm saying that, but like I just I feel like uh every time I step on, I feel like I faint. Alright, and then you come and say, look, I need to get some vitamin D and like you. This vitamin D is a bit too harsh. Like, no, but I would do like January, February, March, April here, and in the rest in Canada. That's a question. January, February, March. Okay, like skip the winter in Gala and B yeah. Now it's not like mental it now with that. It's still like I mean like it's getting into spring, but it we still get snow. Yeah, correct. Most jay thing about you. I think I need to scroll. Yesterday, you were on your phone, and actually I didn't know you were on the phone. But she just asked you something and you just threw the phone. Yeah, you know, because I'm trying to be I'm trying to be more like present. I'm trying to be more present here. Like, I don't know, like the scrolling just feels very like you know, like yesterday I wanted to journal. I'm just like, oh, but it's taking away my time to totally bad. This is bringing your closest to I'm gonna get you into trouble. All three alone. Come on. I'll be here though. I can't answer that. I love one more. Oh yeah, I I know, I know.

SPEAKER_01

One thing is a good answer. One thing you cannot explain to your parents.

SPEAKER_02

Um they don't understand promo videos like ads that I do, like for Lomi Ad and all. Like you remember the castaram tea. Like they don't understand, I'm like, I have to do a script, a storyboard, and everything for this brand, and they're like, they don't understand. You know, they're like, so pilang, and okay, sir, these like facewash, like soap. They don't understand. Oh, I met a mother and uh you think I'm not soap. You know, they just don't get it. They don't understand brand videos at all. Making me sound like I'm baking soap on the roof. No, I point because of the pill that they need to like start it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so yeah. Okay, tradition or individuality. What does that mean?

SPEAKER_02

Tradition. You like me? Kala charam culture. Uh tradition and another. But what does individuality mean? Individuality is you.

SPEAKER_01

Tradition is tradition. Yeah, individuality is what makes you want to live.

SPEAKER_04

Hello, Rukumala. No, but I think it was an amazing episode where we just sat and laughed. But there's one thing that I want you to do for me. Like, you know, if you had to I swear it's Padukar King, I don't know. But if you had to, like, there had to be one takeaway from this episode for our listeners or our audience, anything at all from the past few minutes that they've sat here and listened to it, the car or whatever. What do you think should be the takeaway from this episode? Tell them be authentic, be yourself, and it'll give you more than everything that you ever wanted. I think the best thing to do is just be yourself. It is hard, but it brought me like my breaking has brought me where I am today on the city right now. So if I'm not worried, the guy's saying be yourself, be yours, be yours and at some point they're gonna be like, okay, Bush, I'll be myself.

SPEAKER_05

No, honestly, it's the way to go. Give me me, don't be afraid, and don't fit in.
