“Pankaj Tripathi is my neighbor and I would ask him to watch this act for sure” Archana Puran Singh praises contestant Jay Vijay Sachan’s act Sony TV’s India’s Laughter Champion

The upcoming weekend episode of Sony Entertainment Television’s India’s Laughter Champion that will be the ‘Ticket to Quarter Final’ will host Jamie Lever as the ‘Comedy Ki Sarpanch.’ This weekend will be a special one as the show will bring forward notable comedians who had previously been sent to the holding area, return, and perform once again in front of the judges Archana Puran Singh and Shekhar Suman. Out of the many contestants, Jay Vijay Sachan from Mumbai will be seen making the judges roll on the floor laughing with his impeccable mimicry skit. His act was not only appreciated by the judges but by Jamie Lever as well.

Taking a situation where well-known Bollywood celebrities are trapped in Salman Khan’s farmhouse during the lockdown, Jay will be seen driving an entire monologue by perfectly mimicking celebrities like Pankaj Tripathi, Salman Khan, Hritik Roshan, Danny Denzongpa, Piyush Mishra, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgn and Naseeruddin Shah! His performance was so perfect that the judges couldn’t help themselves but get on the stage to hug him.

Archana Puran Singh showered praises upon Jay by saying, “Every mimicry act does not have comedy and every comedy cannot have mimicry but today, I witnessed a brilliant combination of both mimicry and comedy. People think mimicry is easy but, there is a lot that goes behind it. There is a script requirement and a technique that is involved… it was mind-blowing! I will honestly say that this is one of the finest acts, not because of just mimicry. And the way you mimicked Pankaj Tripathi, brilliant! He is my neighbor and I would ask him to watch this act for sure.”

Not the one to hold back, ‘Comedy Ki Sarpanch’ Jamie Lever would also sing praises of the comedian by saying, “As someone who does voices, I know the kind of technique that is involved … voice modulation, mannerisms, dynamics…there is a lot of voice work and, as an artist and someone who does mimicry and impersonations, I know there is a lot of strain put on vocal cords. It’s a very beautiful art form and you performed stunningly, Jay Vijay Sachan.”

Later in the episode, Jamie Lever would also be seen imitating her classic Farah Khan voice which was welcomed with thunderous applauses and praises from the judges. The comedian would then get teary-eyed and be grateful to the judges and ‘Comedy Ke Sarpanch’ for their kind words.
