Meet Disabled Stand-up Comedian Nidhi Goyal, Breaking Barriers Through Humour
Nidhi Goyal was around 15-year-old when she was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa, a progressive degenerative eye disorder that mostly renders one blind. The young Ms Goyal was in Class 10 and the diagnosis had put a question mark on her career choice of being a portrait painter or venture into fine arts and visual space. Today, Ms Goyal is India’s first female disabled stand-up comedian who uses humour to challenge prevailing notions about disability.
