Raju Srivastav rocks.

Laughing is a boon to mankind; any other creature can not laugh in the universe apart from Human beings. There are certain people who born to make people laugh. Raju Srivastav is one among them. He was recently arrived in the capital at Pragati Maidan, where audiences giggled a lot. The programme was organised by Hindustan Builders to celebrate the launch of Mumbai -Nasik Highway plots. His gags spare no one – from MPs to union Minister Laloo Prasad Yadav and film folk to precocious kids, ha – ha! Man Raju Srivastav takes on everyone in his stand – up acts. He created a riot on this live show and has audiences aching with laughter. Raju is against the loud and vulgar comedy. His ideals in the comedy are Kishore Kumar in films and Jhony Lever on stage and his favourite actor is Amitabh Bachchan, The uniqueness of his jokes left the audiences speechless, the audiences were very much into listening him, that they even stopped laughing and ensured that they get each and every word of Raju Srivastav.

A comedy of manners typically takes as its subject a particular part of society (usually upper class society) and uses humor to parody or satirize the behaviour and mannerisms of its members. This can be seen in Raju Srivastav’s all most all live performances.

Being a comedian is not an easy task because, the comedian has to scrutinize the society very closely in order to use each and every element, character, incident society in his comedy. Mr. Ajay Chawda, Managing Director of Hindustan said “I am very much happy to have Raju Srivastav on this auspicious occasion, where we launched our prestigious project at Mumbai-Nasik Highway.

Best part of these food courts is that, they emerged in those Multiplexes and Malls where, there were no food courts earlier.

Managing Director of SRS Suneel Jindal says that “the Malls, Multiplexes and Food Courts compliment each other and if any one of these three misses, that shows the reflection on the other. Usually visitors of Malls and Multiplexes will seek for a food court after enjoying a movie or after doing their shopping. If, they don’t find then they would not like to visit that place frequently. The second thing is that we have thought that the people in small cities will prefer to have Indian Food only. But, interestingly they are very much keen in trying various kinds of food varieties. Keeping all kinds of visitors in mind we have arranged sections like Continental, Chinese, North Indian and South Indian etc. apart from this one can also find snacks as well in our 7dayz food courts”.
