Alive at 40 is a stand-up special by comedian Anuvab Pal, talking about what it is like to be in a 40 year old entertainer in 'New India', where people are pretending to be hip and failing disgracefully. What is it like to be ageing men in contemporary young India? On one side, Indian uncles shouting. On the other side, selfies and Snapchat. Anuvab Pal tells us how middle aged Indian men delude themselves into wanting to be younger, and the tragedies that await them. As seen through his life as India’s most senior stand up comedian (pun intended). Who said tragedy isn't comedy?
