Go to an Indian restaurant, there’s mild, medium, hot, and Indian Hot. Then again someone might say “he’s hot for an Indian guy…Indian hot.” This half-hour sketch show pilot is a South Asian Key & Peele if I played both halves and embodied the above dichotomy. But this incendiary show’s top priority is to make you laugh, and it sets out to prove that, Desi or not, anyone from anywhere can be...Indian Hot. FX FLAMES.
A collection of sketches and shorts with a narrative framing element where two odd-couple hosts, both played by me, keep frustratingly not being able to start the show, but where each distraction and diversion is a sketch or short that makes up the show.
