Zakir Khan: Haq Se Single

Zakir Khan: Haq Se Single

Zakir Khan has been showing up on my reels a bunch so I thought I will finally pick a Saturday and watch his prime special. I think he is witty but loses momentum towards the end. Nonetheless there were some very good punchlines and observations.

The most relatable bit that initially attracted me to the special was him giving women’s perspective when it comes to liking a boy: apna lowest hit kar jati hai , and then they snap, iska ab hogya🙅 hairflip 💁 haha

Here are my other favs:

  • The bit about unrequited love: you win and lose everyday
  • Cricket fandom of boys bit
  • Women no kajal look bit was funny. It reminded me of a girl in my high school who used to say mera kajal nahi hai, meri aankhein naturally aisi hain lmao
  • The bit about those papa ki pari girls : mujhe cooking aati hai, embroidery bhi aati hai, aur papa ki pari toh mai hun hi 🙋😌
  • Men using all the right keywords post a woman’s breakup: ‘totally’, ‘of course’, ‘kya ghatiya insaan hai’
  • Men’s inner monologue v/s outer monologue : while speaking to a girl
  • Was also nice to see a brown man admit that they are emotionally immature because of the whole archaic hunter v/s gatherer thing: emotion ke maamle Mei 400 saal peeeche reh gaye
  • The bit about how poetic women can get when in love
  • phone pe suna dena book bit: it reminded me of my long convos with my friend Shambhavi who would listen to me narrate a whole psych thriller novel to her (we still do that over phone lol)
  • Women making men admit to their BS bit was also very good. bhai tera legend but bhaabhi mega legend

It was cute to see him say that all of dating is pretty much trial and error.

Overall good vibes
