Real Laughter and Audience Moments from My Shows
The best part of my job isn't the travel or the tech, it's the connection. Here are some of my favorite moments with the people who make it all worth it.
A standing ovation at the Navika 2025 event in Florida. This is the loudest and most beautiful 'thank you' an artist can ever receive. I am truly grateful for this moment.
A heartfelt video testimonial from an audience member at the Naadothsava music festival. She beautifully explains the magic of ventriloquism and the spontaneity of the art form.
Kokila Ajji loves interacting with the crowd. Here she is at Pyramid Valley, chatting with the audience, asking their names, and cracking jokes about their hometowns.
While exploring the Bhimbetka caves in Madhya Pradesh, my puppet Tata met a group of dentists. He couldn't resist cracking a few jokes about needing a new set of teeth.
Kokila Ajji meets a 'Kole Basava' (decorated bull) and its master on the street. She even gets her 'drishti' (evil eye) removed in this impromptu, traditional interaction.
Kokila Ajji having some fun with the Gichhi Gili Gili team during a bus journey. She even offers to remove the 'drishti' for one of the boys.
More 'drishti' removal on the bus. Kokila Ajji believes in protecting everyone from the evil eye, and her method is full of humor and blessings.
Kokila Ajji never misses a chance to interact, even on a moving bus. Here she is having a playful argument with a fellow passenger.
On the road to Chamarajanagar for a show. This video captures the journey and the excitement of taking Kokila Ajji to meet her fans.

About Rave Reviews & Audience Moments
Whether it’s a quiet moment at a music festival or a bus-full of laughter, my puppets don’t just perform, they converse. I never follow a rigid script because no two crowds are the same, and that’s how I keep the energy real, even when Kokila Ajji starts roasting someone for their hometown.
I believe that ventriloquism is not just about throwing your voice, it’s about opening your heart to the audience. When I perform, whether it is for a corporate crowd in Bengaluru or a cultural gathering in Florida, I want everyone to feel like they are part of the conversation.
My puppets—Dinku, Kokila Ajji, and Tata—each have their own unique way of breaking the ice. You will see Ajji asking people about their hometowns or teasing the bride and groom, while Dinku might be busy making jokes about the latest tech trends. This isn't a passive watching experience; it is an interactive one. I pull people from the crowd because that is where the magic happens.
I am incredibly grateful for the feedback I receive. Seeing a grandmother laugh at Ajji’s jokes or watching kids get wide-eyed at Dinku’s antics reminds me why I chose this path. If you are looking for an act that brings genuine, clean laughter to your event, you are not just hiring a performer, you are inviting a family of characters who are ready to make memories with you.
