Explocity and Opus present RAJIV SATYAL live at Opus (Palace Cross Road), Sept 11th, 9 pm onwards:

Rajiv Satyal is the small, bespectacled Indian guy from Ohio whose witty, universal, and TV-clean act resonates with Middle America by covering everything from racial issues to soap bottles to his favourite topic – himself. This former engineer and P&G marketer has repeatedly opened for Dave Chappelle, Kevin Nealon, and also for Russell Peters in sold-out auditoriums across the U.S.A. Peters recently named Rajiv as 1 of only 2 Indian American “comics to watch.” This LA-based pocket pundit challenges people to see a new point-of-view. And to explain that Indians were not involved in 9-11 – just 7-11. Finally, he talks about what it’s like to be Rajiv. And we all have some Rajiv in us, even if we don’t want to admit it.

Kingfisher ABANDONFRIDAY with 'Supersonics' (Kolkata) at Opus (Palace Cross Road), Sept 4th, 9 pm onwards:

Ugly, dirty and ultra-talented, The Supersonics crashed the Calcutta music scene with a high voltage performance at a crowded little bar called Someplace Else. Formed in 2006, their defiant anthems have already earned them an anti-gravity cult status. Geared with a toothpaste fresh sound and a dangerous stage presence, it would be wrong to call The Supersonics a band. They are a milk-drinking, vitamin-popping call to arms. They are a shiny new revolution. Click here to check out their website.
