Sterling Reserve in partnership with Comedy Central India launched a nationwide hunt in search for the next comedy sensation with Sterling Reserve Comedy Project (SRCP). Aspiring comedians from across the country can participate in this unique talent hunt to find the funniest and most-entertaining stand-up comedian in the country. Renowned stand-up performer Varun Thakur has been roped in as the host, mentor and ambassador for the hunt. Giving undiscovered comedians the opportunity of a lifetime, SRCP has already garnered hundreds of applications within just a few days, and the doors for participation are wide open.
To enroll in the hunt, candidates must log on to the Sterling Reserve Comedy Project site (https://www.comedycentral.in/srcp), fill up a simple application form, and submit an original audition video. From the torrent of entries only 12 contestants will be shortlisted, who will then face-off and compete over 5 gruelling rounds. Over the course of 8 weeks, the selected candidates will try to be their funniest best and vie for audience votes in a bid to reach the epic finale of this competition that will be adjudged by a panel of expert judges.
