In this conversation, Jagjyot opens up about what shaped him long before the world met AapkaJags — the everyday Indian boy who failed 10th and turned to the camera for comfort, who lost his home at thirteen, rebuilt life step by step and eventually created Hapka with his brother. He talks about love, breakups, loneliness and the strange pressure of being a creator who is expected to stay funny even on the days he can barely hold himself together.
There are moments that are unexpectedly emotional, moments that are utterly chaotic and moments so hilarious you’ll replay them — from improv scenes that go completely off the rails to a phone-call-with-daadi that melts the entire room. It’s Jagjyot in his most unfiltered form, and it reveals the everyday Indian boy behind the comedy.
