Blind Stand-up Comedian Nidhi Goyal

Nidhi Goyal is a funny woman. She does stand up comedy in and around Mumbai, where she's always lived. She cracks jokes about disability... and sex... and prejudice. She's blind. And she told Outlook's Jo Fidgen she often finds that the first thing she has to do when she gets on stage is justify why she's there. (Photo credit: Sahil Kotwani.)
