Magic is for everyone, and I love performing for kids' birthday parties. Sharing a moment of pure astonishment with this young guest makes it all worthwhile. My interactive magic is perfect for family gatherings and celebrations.
It was a huge honor to be featured on the cover of Happiest Health magazine. I'm really proud to share my story of turning a lifelong passion for magic into a full-time profession.
A modern take on the classic magician. This is my style: contemporary, engaging, and always focused on creating a memorable experience for you and your guests.
My journey in magic started right here, at just three years old. This photo is from one of my very first shows, proving that my love for illusion and performance has been a part of me for as long as I can remember.
I was blown away by the support for my online magic videos, with this one reaching over 600,000 views on YouTube. It's amazing to connect with so many people through the art of magic, both online and in person.

About Close-up & Strolling Magic

Magic That Happens Right With You

I’m Nihal, and I love surprising people up close. My magic isn’t about big stages or spotlights. I move around, chat with your guests, and suddenly make a coin disappear or tell someone what they’re thinking. It’s right in front of you, no hiding, no fancy setup.

What I Do

  • Walk up to groups, break the ice, get everyone laughing or a bit mind-blown
  • Classic sleight-of-hand illusions with cards, coins, whatever’s on hand
  • Mind reading performances that really get folks talking
  • Crowd work that fits in naturally - I’m not stopping your party, I’m part of it

Where This Works Best

  • Office parties where you want something that’s not just another Zoom call or boring dinner. Boss-ge magic nodi, avru kooda shock aagthare! (Even your boss will be shocked seeing this magic!)
  • House parties, birthdays, anniversaries - I blend in, so nobody feels left out
  • Pubs and restaurants - table-hopping magician style, giving each group their own mini-show

Why I Do It

I just want you to feel like a kid again, honestly. There’s nothing like that look when someone sees real close-up magic for the first time. If you want your event to feel different, let’s make it happen.

My Story

Hey, I’m Nihal. Magic’s been my thing since I was a toddler in a giant turban – not even kidding, there are photos! By 8, I’d won state awards, and at 12, I was off to international summits, juggling school and magic tricks. My parents? My biggest fans. Turning childhood passion into a full-time gig feels unreal. For me, the best part isn’t just the tricks – it’s that feeling of wonder, like you’re a kid again. That’s where real magic lives.

My Work

All My Acts - I do magic, ventriloquism, mentalism, and emcee gigs for birthdays, corporate events, public shows, even pub magic gigs.

Comedy Magic & Ventriloquism - My most popular act with Sandy the monkey. Loads of laughs, magic tricks, and comedy ventriloquism show for all ages.

Interactive Human Puppet Act - I pick someone from your crowd and turn them into my puppet. Totally interactive and hilarious for corporate events.

Close-up Magic & Mentalism - I mingle, read minds, and do close-up mentalism. Might even guess your phone password (don’t worry, I won’t steal your data).

Emcee with a Twist - I host events, keep the vibe lively, and add a sprinkle of magic and fun to everything.
