Atul Patel.

Atul Patel is a Minneapolis-based Indian-American comedian whose clever, observational style blends the wit of Demetri Martin with the absurdity of Mitch Hedberg. Originally from Cleveland, he riffs on the difficulties of being a multicultural vegetarian outsider in Minnesota. He twice placed 4th in the ACME Funniest Person Contest and has performed standup everywhere from Reykjavik to Tokyo and has headlined and produced shows in the Midwest. His relaxed, wry delivery and sharp writing captivate audiences with effortless, understated charm. Atul Patel: wiser than he looks, funnier than you'd expect.
