Nimesh Patel is one of the fastest-rising stars in stand-up, known for his fearless honesty, razor-sharp punchlines, and whip-smart commentary on race, culture, and identity. A former Emmy-nominated writer for Saturday Night Live, Nimesh has also written for the Oscars and Hasan Minhaj’s Patriot Act, and was the first Indian-American writer on SNL. His self-produced stand-up specials—including Thank You, China, Jokes to Get You Through Quarantine, and Lucky Lefty (a raw, hilarious look at surviving cancer)—have racked up millions of views on YouTube, earning him a massive and loyal fanbase. Nimesh sells out venues across the country with his no-holds-barred live shows, and his sharp takes have landed him appearances on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and Netflix’s Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready. Bold, unapologetic, and bitingly funny, Nimesh Patel is a singular voice in comedy today.
