Kenny Sebastian
Birthday: Born in 1991-12-31 in Kottayam, Kerala, India
Deathday: Alive
Born into a middle class family and raised across different cities in India helped 25 year old Kenneth Sebastian develop a keen sense of observation of culture, people and stereotypes, all of which have found its way into his comedy. A graduate from an art school, he dabbled with painting, music and film making with an editors credit on a feature film before he found his true calling in the form of stand up comedy. Having performed in over 500 shows in the last five years, written and hosted a show on Comedy Central that completed one season and having released four comedy specials online along with India’s first sci-fi comedy web series, Kenneth is well on his way to change the face of comedy in India.
