LOL for the Olympics

On July 17,Sorabh Pant will headline at the second edition of “Tuesdays With Morons”. The show,organised by his company East India Co.medy,is a special Lolympic Edition and celebrates the upcoming London Olympics 2012. Other comedians,such as Sahil Shah,Sapan Varma and Aditi Mittal will perform alongside Pant.

The proceeds from the show will go to the GoSport Foundation,which is raising funds for Indian sportpersons who will participate in the grand sporting event. “Our support stems from a recent news report about athletes who couldn’t participate in the Olympics qualifiers because they didn’t have Rs 30,000 for travel expenses. It is for the pride of seeing India at the Olympics that we decided to help this NGO,which is logistically helping the participating Indian sportspersons,” explains Pant. The stand-up comic also intends to tie up with various organisations that represent different causes for such charity shows in the future.
