‘I saw a lot of poverty, my mother used to sew dupattas’
Recalling those days of poverty, Bharti Singh told Neena Gupta, ‘My focus has always been on poverty. I was 2 years old when my father passed away. My brothers and sisters lost their jobs. He used to work in a factory. His job was to carry heavy blankets. Blankets we may never use. He used to sit at night and sew. Sometimes my mother sewed a scarf. I still hate the smell of those blankets and those machines. My family and I have seen a lot of poverty. Just don’t want to see anymore. If you check the background, you will find that most of the comedians have been poor. You cannot do comedy when you are rich.

‘Mother would clean toilets, people would give us stale food’
Bharti Singh further said, ‘You cannot imagine the extent of poverty I have seen. If I used to see someone throwing away half an apple after eating it, I used to think that he would be cursed because he wasted the food. Sometimes I even thought of picking up and eating the half apple that was thrown away. When my mother worked in people’s homes, I used to sit near the door. She used to clean the toilet. When we left, people would give us the leftover food. Their leftover stale food used to become our fresh food. Today I tell my mother that whatever I have done and whatever I have earned is because of you.

Kapil Sharma and Sudesh Lahiri changed life
But Bharti Singh’s luck changed with ‘The Great Indian Laughter Challenge’. But before coming in this, he was given the first chance by Kapil Sharma and Sudesh Lahiri. Bharti Singh told that once in college when she was making people laugh in the garden area, Sudesh Lahiri saw her. Then he asked the teacher to call a fat girl who is making the students laugh. Just from there Bharti Singh got a chance. Bharti performed at the first National Youth Festival, for which she went to Andhra Pradesh with the team.
