More About Me!
My name is Umesh Wadhavani
I am a Doctor but I don’t practice medicine.
I am a Nutritionist but I don’t give out diet plans.
Aap bhi meri mom ki tarah soch rahe honge ke “Jadda tu kandho chha aahi”? (my mom thinks in Sindhi)
It simply means “Paagal insaan toh tu karta kya hai”
Well, I help people become self dependent when it comes to eating and living healthy. I do that via different ways - personal consultation, coaching, masterclasses and short courses.
If you know me even a little, you might be aware that I go out of my way to make things interesting to listen to.
I like to use:
-funny examples
-outrageous hooks
-creative analogies
-bollywood movie references
So that anything I say becomes much more interesting and easier to listen to.
I’m a firm believer that if you serve information with humour, it makes it more accessible for people and people are more receptive to that information. Esp when the topic ias as dry as Nutrition and Health.
I’ve done 1000+ sessions in the last 6 years, and I saw a pattern emerging in all of them, a few moments where people started laughing, which made me believe in it more and more.
I noted those moments down, made a 60-minute set, and I did my first-ever standup at Habitat Mumbai in January this year.
Got great feedback, everyone loved it, and so did I.
Cut to July:
-a team of 600+ people (10x my first gig)
-a 90 min set (2x my first gig)
-a whole lot of laughter (100x my first gig)
Uske baad humne 4 aur shows kiye HR college in Mumbai, Orange Comedy Club in Pune, Global Happiness Festival in Jaipur and most recently Nitrro Gym in Pune.
To watch a random thought of “blending education with entertainment” come to life in front of a huge audience was something truly magical <3
I am planning to do shows in different cities around the world. If this concept sounds interesting to you, please click on the Interest Form link and enter your details. I’ll make sure to plan an event in your city, town, or village and personally reach out to you with an invite. In return, I promise to give you an experience and a half during the show.
