Kunaal Roy Kapur 'nervous' over comic act at Stage42 festival

Actor Kunaal Roy Kapur is all set to perform along with his friend and stand-up comedian Anubhav Pal in his act "The Empire" which will be a part of the Stage42 festival. The actor says he is nervous over his gig.

"I am so not looking forward to this. I have hung eight stories off the ground on a wire, and I can tell you this is far worse. It's nerve-wrecking. Pal gets me to do this and I think I'm going to have to stop being friends with him. I haven't seen 'The Empire' and I'm glad I'm getting paid too," Kunaal said in a statement.

Kunal will be seen in the opening act at Rangsharda Natya Mandir here Feb 22.

Internationally known stand-up comedians like Jerry Seinfeld and Russell Peters will also be a part of this festival.

The Stage42 festival will take place in seven cities -- Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai and Pune -- between February and March. It aims at showcasing some of India's and the world's most celebrated artists and experiences in comedy, music, theatre and food.
