    For Immediate Release Avid Learning in partnership with the Kala Ghoda Association (KGA) presents Episode 5, the concluding episode, of The Kala Ghoda Arts Festival Series 2016-17: A series around Arts and Culture in the City. Have a bambaiya funny bone? Enjoy a good Parsi natak? Relate to all the jokes beginning with “you know you’re from Bombay when…”? Join us for our next panel which is sure to tickle you silly! Bombay humour is idiosyncratic, local and communal. No aspects are spared, from Bombay's people, its places, markets, maidans, institutions, transport systems, politicians, socialities, food and eating habits, sports, business, underworld, fashion and lifestyle. Bombay has created the likes of humorist Busy Bee and inspired cartoonists like Mario Miranda and R.K. Laxman. Go behind the scenes of all the hilarity as our panel probes into the particularities and quirks of our unique brand of comedy. What are Bombay- isms? What do we think of when we think of funny aspects of the city? How is Bombay humour depicted in films? Why are some communities, like the Parsis, embraced for their peculiar eccentricities and sense of satire? How is Bombay different from Delhi in its witticisms and parody?
