DFP Punchline Series: Harith Iskander, 35 Years Of Laughter

Harith Iskander needs little introduction - he’s often called the ‘Godfather of Malaysian Stand-Up Comedy,’ and with good reason too. Over 35 years, he has carved a unique space in the comedy world, blending sharp observations with humour that resonates across cultures. As he prepares for his upcoming performance, DFP Punchline: Harith Iskander, 35 Years of Laughter at Dewan Filharmonik Petronas, we sit down with Harith to reflect on his journey, his comedic philosophy, and what audiences can expect from this milestone celebration.
