Two Chickpeas sit down with comedian Eshaan Akbar. Eshaan began his comedy career ten years ago and has been making people cry with laughter ever since. You will have seen Eshaan on Live at the Apollo, Sex Education and soon you will see him on Celebrity Masterchef. We however saw him on BBC’s Pilgrimage and in discussing this we have one of our most insightful conversations to date about religion. Eshaan is a British Asian male who once practised Islam and talks about the decision he took in his 20s to no longer practice his religion. Eshaan is also a cultural commentator in his own right as he talks about witnessing racism growing up, how his environment at home was one that never made him feel shame in who he was and how ultimately his mother, who sadly passed away a decade ago, has had the most influence in his life and it’s led him to right where he is today, one of the funniest men on the planet!
