LAUGHS WITH NADIR


Meet the Lahori from San Fran Bay
With a knack for comedic display
Spinning sketches on immigrant strife
Nadir Bhai is just larger-than-life

He takes potshots at Desi parents
Phuppho's parathas, Abbu's laments
Gorays grappling with immigrant names
Cultural parody is his claim to fame

Only the wife gets the better of him
She's too smart, so his chances are slim
Though the kids might agree he's a pro
Just a glare and she's stolen the show

Sketch by sketch, his humour runs wild
And on Insta he has Desis beguiled
If your poison is cultural gaffes
Follow Nadir, the Badshah of Laughs!

This is the 12th poem in my A to Z Blogging Challenge 2025 campaign. This one is dedicated to Nadir Shah and his Insta page ItsNadirShah. Nadir is a social media content creator, who is well known for his cultural satiure and sketch comedy videos on Instagram and YouTube. Born in Lahore and currently based in the Bay Area of San Francisco, he amassed several years of experience in digital and social media marketing in the corporate world before taking a plunge into content creation full time. His sharp wit and relatable humour on quirks and struggles of Desi immigrants in the western world, Pinjabi mannerisms and traditions, the cultural gap between the Desis and the West, cultural stereotypes, and family dynamics have earned him several fans in the Indian subcontinent and the US. 

You can find his work on:-

Do visit his Youtube channel and Insta page. Would be wonderful if you could also let him know how you found his content. 😊

Hope you liked this poem. Please leave your comments/feedback.
