Yuck Collective

The Yuck Comedy Collective was founded by comedians Neelaksh Mathur, Harman Preet Singh, Gaurav Purohit, Hari Krishna, and Vijeth VS. The collective has been active in the comedy scene for some time, but it wasn’t until earlier this year that they launched their own club at Flax in Bengaluru. At the club, the collective offers open mic nights throughout the week and lineup shows on the weekends, attracting a growing community of comedy fans. In addition to performing regularly at the club, the members of the collective also host a podcast that features appearances from other comedians on tour. Yuck stands out as a newer comedy collective at a time when many comedians have moved away from this format. The collective was formed in part to build an online presence and increase the number of people aware of their work. The members of the collective believe that building a brand or meme page can help them achieve the online distribution they desire.
