Ankita Shrivastav

Ankita Shrivastav has carved a distinctive space in India’s comedy landscape, known to her ever-growing fanbase as @filmychokri across YouTube and Instagram. Her digital footprint is substantial, with her YouTube content amassing close to 15 million views, while her versatility as a performer has landed her in over 100 commercials for powerhouse brands such as Dairy Milk, Dominos, LG, Tata Sky, and New York Life Insurance.

Her breakout moment arrived with her debut stand-up piece, “Bombay Girls, Local Trains,” which became a viral phenomenon, crossing 4 million views. The routine introduced her signature style—relatable storytelling that strikes a chord with young urban Indians and small-town audiences alike. It also gave birth to her beloved catchphrase, “Ladki, jise attention bilkul pasand nahi hai,” which quickly became a cultural touchstone.

Beyond stand-up, Ankita is a gifted character creator, bringing to life personas like Billo Rani and Natasha, both of whom have become Instagram favorites. Her acting credentials extend to the silver screen, where she portrayed Sarabjit’s daughter in the biographical drama *Sarabjit*, sharing screen space with Randeep Hooda and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. She also showcased her theatrical depth in a 90-minute English monologue, *An Unposted Love Letter*, penned by Nobel laureate Doris Lessing, earning critical acclaim for her compelling performance.

Next up, Ankita joins some of India’s top comics in *LOL: Hasse Toh Phasse*, a highly anticipated comedy series on Amazon Prime, poised to expand her already impressive reach.
