Manan Desai is one of the Founders of The Comedy Factory. After realising the lack of live entertainment in Gujarat, he came up with the idea of introducing a different form of Comedy to the people. As the Programming Head and a Comedian, he made sure that he not only exposed people to this art form, but also captured a lot of hearts with a perfect blend of traditional and contemporary Gujarati life style. He was also a part Comedy Nights Bachao, telecasted on Colors TV, and Comedy Dangal, telecasted on Life Ok. Marrying a South Indian and becoming a father recently, added a lot of new perspective to his content along with a few pounds to his body. Manan Desais Ashudh Gujarati Stand up was the first of its kind, ever to be performed in Gujarat.
