“Humour is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritation and resentments slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place.”
- Mark Twain
This quote by the famous author, Mark Twain hits the nail on the head as he advocates humour as the best way to forget all the worries. Cricket humourist, Vikram Sathaye, also lives by this philosophy and that can be seen through his book and the shows he does.
Cricket is like a religion in India and one needs to walk a treacherous line to not mock the demi-gods while be funny at the same time. Vikram Sathaye treads it to perfection in his show, ‘What the Duck’, exclusively available on Viu. In the series, he invites famous Indian cricketers for a chat in 15 minutes of pure hilarity while travelling back in time to the player’s career.
In this episode, Gautam Gambhir, is welcomed by Vikram and it isn’t your run of the mill interview. He dares to ask Gauti, as he is famously called, the question everyone shies away from - What makes him so angry?, to which the Kolkata Knight Riders captain answers hilariously.
There’s plenty of other interesting content in the video, which you can watch below, courtesy Viu:
In yet another interesting episode, another cricketer bares his soul amidst guffaws. The stories make you roll on the floor with laughter (Yes, we know it’s called ROFL!) as the author of, ‘How Sachin destroyed my life’ gets them to spill secrets from their playing career while never losing the humour quotient.
But, this is not it! There’s more in store. For more episodes, watch the What the Duck series exclusively on Viu here.
