"You guys have this tremendous opportunity. You guys can be legends. Who knows... you might be [India's] Letterman." —Bill Burr
About the Film
AMERICAN HASI (Hindi for "American laughter") is a feature documentary following LA-based stand-up comedian Tushar Singh and his number one fan—his mom—on a 35-day comedy tour across India as he clings to hopes of fast tracking his way to a full-time comedy career in an emerging scene where audiences will “get him” better than Americans. Along the way he gets life-changing advice from veteran comics Bill Burr, Russell Peters, and Vir Das, and attempts to reconcile his career goals and creative identity with his family’s sacrifices and conservative upbringing. AMERICAN HASI is a funny and delightfully awkward story that captures the struggles of the brave few who try to make a living out of their creative passion.
