Join us for the 105th episode of Digital Commentary’s Unfolding Talents Podcast featuring the legendary mimicry artist, comedian, and actor Suresh Menon. In this unfiltered and laughter-filled conversation, Suresh reflects on how stand-up comedy has begun to overshadow mimicry, and shares his thoughts on the shifting comedy landscape in India. He takes us behind the scenes of iconic films like Phir Hera Pheri, Deewane Huye Paagal, and Ra.One, revealing unheard stories—like how Rajnikanth’s character in Ra.One was played by a body double. Suresh also opens up about his emotional connection with Johnny Lever, who once prayed for his father’s recovery, and revisits the time Karan Johar got offended by a mimicry act he did on The Great Indian Comedy Show. He recreates iconic voices—Sachin Tendulkar, Ishant Sharma, Amol Palekar, Sanjeev Kumar, and more—sharing the hilarious stories behind each impersonation. From playing a Malayali Sardar in Badhai Ho Badhai to celebrating Kader Khan’s brilliance, this episode is a goldmine of Bollywood trivia, emotion, and comic genius. Suresh also reflects on his father’s philosophy about life and death, his early radio days, and the Red FM call that changed everything. He praises Red Chillies VFX for being ahead of its time, and ends with an honest take on why he chose to step away from Bollywood. This episode is packed with storytelling, nostalgia, and mimicry magic — a must-watch for comedy lovers, cinephiles, and fans of Indian pop culture.
