00:00I want you to guess, on a piece of paper, how many views you think my next guest gets.
00:05Now go ahead and burn that paper, because my next guest is Bhuvan Bam, ladies and gentlemen.
00:16Bhuvan, is this the first interview being done in your house?
00:19So, technically this is my office. My home is in Delhi.
00:23Alright.
00:23So we've rented a place here. It's on the upper floor.
00:26That's where I live in Mumbai.
00:28But this is the office. This is where we edited Dindora.
00:30But for Dindora...
00:31So, the rest is in your workspace?
00:32Yes, yes.
00:33Dare I say, we are in uncharted territory.
00:36So, this is the epitome of narcissism.
00:39I love it.
00:40We've got the holy grail.
00:41So, I don't talk much about this.
00:42I see.
00:43Because the more I talk about it, the more I think I'm doing injustice to this pretty little thing.
00:48Plus, we have like 10 of those, so...
00:52You know, there's this quote by Kanye West. It's my favorite.
00:55It goes like, I need a room full of mirrors to surround myself by winners.
01:00You give me proper Kanye West vibes.
01:03I'm saying this. This wasn't my idea.
01:05Okay, alright.
01:07A while back, you went ahead and decided to break the internet
01:11with your new show, Dindora, on YouTube.
01:13I never expected people to actually like the show this much.
01:17Right.
01:18Because for us, it's like a leap of faith.
01:20100%, yeah.
01:21To move out of that wall.
01:23Ah, of course.
01:24And then to bring those characters life-size.
01:27Right.
01:27People have never seen anything below this in my videos.
01:30Okay, right.
01:30But now they're watching my legs.
01:32They're watching me walk.
01:34So, that's a new thing for them.
01:35Really?
01:36I'm so glad that they've accepted this form.
01:39Accepted it?
01:40What's to accept?
01:41It's not a gift voucher from DMart.
01:43Now, the question that everybody wants to know.
01:47How much money do you make from YouTube?
01:49No one has the correct figure.
01:50I have the correct figures.
01:52Give it to us, Bhuvan.
01:53Give us that exclusive number.
01:57That building.
01:59Nice building.
02:01So, Bhuvan, we do this segment on our show called the OK Boomer segment.
02:06Yeah.
02:06It's where we quiz our guests on some of the internet slang that the kids are using.
02:11How good do you think you are with internet?
02:13I think I'm pretty updated.
02:14Okay, fairly confident.
02:16I think, I think.
02:18Bob.
02:20What?
02:21I think I'm pretty updated.
02:22Bob.
02:24Bob?
02:24Bob.
02:26It's like a boo-boo.
02:27You made a boo-boo?
02:28What's a boo-boo?
02:30Okay, it's from a Shah Rukh Khan movie.
02:31Oh, okay, my bad.
02:32You made a blunder kind of thing?
02:34No, Bob is, it's a really good song.
02:37Oh.
02:38Oh, like, you know, you bop your head to it.
02:40Okay.
02:40They're like, okay, this song is a bop.
02:42Next one is catch these hands.
02:45Catch these hands.
02:47Yeah.
02:49Catch these hands.
02:49What do you think it means?
02:50It sounds like catch these hands, yo.
02:53Touch me if you can.
02:54Yeah, sort of, like, let's fight.
02:55We'll fight it out.
02:56Let's fight.
02:56Oh.
02:57Catch these hands.
02:59I need to use them.
03:00Yeah.
03:00Snack.
03:02Oh, okay, this one, oh, this one he knows.
03:04Yeah, he doesn't.
03:05Okay.
03:06Do you know though?
03:07Yeah, I know.
03:08S-N-A-C.
03:09Yeah.
03:09Yeah.
03:10Okay, cool.
03:11So snack is a really good looking person.
03:13So you call someone a snack.
03:14Now the last one, this is kind of hard.
03:16But you would have seen it on the internet.
03:18Sheesh.
03:19Sheesh?
03:20Sheesh.
03:20That's how it's said.
03:22I thought it's an expression of sheesh.
03:25No, no, no, no, no, not cringe.
03:27Okay.
03:28You haven't seen it on TikTok where it's a sheesh, no?
03:31What's this, what's this?
03:33Guys, don't roast me in the comments, please.
03:36This is, yeah, there's ice in my veins.
03:37So you say sheesh when you see something.
03:40It's like you're exclaiming.
03:41I'm so glad I don't know this.
03:43Maybe you want to give some gyaan to your younger audience
03:47using some of the slang that you've learned here today.
03:49Guys, don't sheesh.
03:51Don't sheesh.
03:51There it is.
03:52Don't sheesh and be a snack, always.
03:55Be a snack, always.
03:56You heard it here first.
03:57What did you study in college then?
03:59So I did history honors.
04:00History?
04:01Yeah, I've always wanted to be an archaeologist.
04:04Okay.
04:05Yeah, because I thought that I thought if I could go down that road
04:09and if I could brush up the road, I might find something.
04:11Might find something, of course.
04:12Thanks to Nat Geo.
04:14Are you dating though?
04:15Yeah.
04:16Okay.
04:16Yeah.
04:17How's that going?
04:18It's good, it's good, it's good.
04:19It's good, it's good.
04:19It's been 13 years now.
04:2213 years?
04:22Yeah.
04:24What's the secret?
04:25We were in the same school, we were in the same bus.
04:27Okay.
04:28So I've known her since I was in fourth grade.
04:31But eventually, I went...
04:32Childhood sweetheart.
04:33Yeah, but eventually, I went out and asked her out after the 10th exams.
04:39And since then, we're hanging together.
04:42So Bhuvan, 2021 has been hard for like a lot of people.
04:47You've done exceptionally well professionally.
04:51You've suffered a tragic personal loss recently.
04:54And yet you still find yourself out there trying to entertain people, make people laugh.
04:59How do you find the strength?
05:01I don't know.
05:02I think it's like a distraction for me, all of this.
05:06Because I can't sit idle.
05:08Because it comes back all the time.
05:09And it'll keep coming back.
05:11It's truly incredible seeing where you started, where you are now.
05:15Especially given what you've had to go through.
05:18Nothing short of brilliance.
05:20And I genuinely wish you all the best in all your future.
05:23Thank you so much.
05:23I will take my leave.
05:25You wanna have some coffee?
05:26I'm fine.
05:27Now you ask 30 minutes after the interview.
05:29I asked you before the interview started.
05:31No, he didn't, he didn't.
05:33All right, Bhuvan.
05:34See you.
05:35Bye.
