Shashi Tharoor is already one of the most loved politicians in the country just because of how hilarious and intelligent he is online - and offline - but now he's going after the title of coolest politician and well, he's got it.
Recently, the 63-year-old politician did a stand-up comedy show and appeared on Amazon Prime's One Mic Stand. Yep, a politician actually being funny and doing a show instead of, you know, politicians saying such bizarre things, while being completely serious, and making people laugh.
He shared the preview of his set on his Twitter account and it's obviously filled with jabs at himself, making fun of his English that only he understands.
The video is less than one minute long and he already used a word everyone had to google to know what it means in the first twenty seconds.

People are obviously excited for the episode to come out and have already dubbed him the coolest politician ever.
Not all who speak good English go on to be good stand-ups. .@ShashiTharoor could be the exception. Atleast the preview is promising! #LookForward https://t.co/oPxeV7T89P

This is one standup special I'm eagerly waiting for.
Wait, is that a reference to that thing?

Looking forward.
Recently, there was a stand-up comedian who became the President of Ukraine. Here in India, we have a Member of Parliament becoming a stand-up comedian. I admire Dr. @ShashiTharoor for constantly finding new ways to connect with the youth. Looking forward to #OneMicStand https://t.co/Yp9GARqRPf
