The People & Co. in its new avtaar

CanvasLaugh Club or CLC has been a pioneer brand, bringing in the best of the stand-up comedy in India to leisure seekers. It built up a strong platform for comedians and humor enthusiasts in Mumbai and later in Gurgaon.

I recently visited the place now referred to as The People & Co. to get acquainted with the new branding structure and whether there really existed a need to upgrade the experience. The founders of the place have now expanded their platform to host a wide range of live events under their Get Live initiative. They have aimed to move beyond the comedy and culinary scene to enhance client experience with stuff like live bands.

The location is great, it is situated at the Cyber Hub and this space was earlier being used as an office. So they have got a large space with a generous front which has been designed aesthetically.

The Delhi venue has been designed to offer varied experiences from their different venues including a Restaurant know as the Plate, Bar known as Public and Comedy club known as Canvas.

Canvas (the rebranded name for Canvas Laugh Club) is a space for roaring performances like stand-up comedy, musicals concerts, fashion shows and theatre. It is currently the only club in the Delhi NCR dedicated to the comedy genre with purpose built acoustics to enhance the experience of watching live stand-up comedy.

Plate a chic and posh restaurant that brings to the platter a plethora of progressive world cuisines and the chefs decide what they feel like ‘cooking’. Plate believes in preparing a piece of art instead of just another meal and make sure you are in for a delicious surprise that leaves you craving for more.

Public is a bar and open space, which opens up in the promenade, as the name suggests, is accessible to anyone and everyone. An all-day wine and coffee bar, the stage is open to an impromptu jazz set with mature and amateur musicians.

The edifice unfolds from a wrapped wood-and-copper facade, with the glow from its dimly illuminated atrium surrounding earth-toned marble floor. The interiors of The People & Co create an eclectic look that emphasizes on the basic philosophy of being simple, earnest and rustic. The design features a timeless worn feel with reclaimed brick walls, corrugated metal detail and beautifully rustic images spread all over the place. A wall dedicated to the merchandise of Canvas called the HaHa People. The place also offers a range of HaHa People merchandise on sale suited and made purely with an intention to bring a smile on everyone’s face.

A great place over all to chill and enjoy some great live shows and positive vibes.

An epidemic of loneliness: Why are we lonely in a world so full?

In the town of Havenwood, an unusual epidemic takes over—not one of physical illness, but an outbreak of loneliness. When Lina, a fiery yet secretly tender-hearted skeptic of romance, meets Quinn, a free-spirited artist questioning the same ideas, they are forced to confront whether real connection lies beyond romantic love or if they are truly doomed to solitude. It was a crisp day in Havenwood, and the sky was brooding—dark clouds laced with impatient energy before a thunderstorm, as if even the heavens felt the town’s growing melancholy. It was not the kind of town you would expect to be cloaked in loneliness. Stone cottages lined the narrow, winding roads, and the trees had that sage-like stillness that you only see in stories and dreams. I hadn’t been here long when the problem struck me like a slap in the face: everyone was obsessed with finding The One, as if every single person was but half a person, wandering through life like a lost sock in search of its pair. How did a town

Strength in Kindness: The quiet strength of Lubna

Meet Lubna, a woman with a soul of warmth and resilience, who is no stranger to life’s brutal storms. Amid a town with moody weather and unpredictable tides, she proves that kindness doesn’t mean fragility. Her story, threaded with love, and strength, is an invitation to question the courage behind kindness and the strength in calm. When Lubna first arrived in the windswept town of Doverby, the townsfolk were charmed by her gentle warmth. But little did they know, her kindness wasn’t born from softness; it was honed in the fires of past trials. As Doverby’s quiet days are threatened by hidden turmoil, Lubna’s strength and resolve rise, surprising everyone who ever mistook her kindness for weakness. I can still remember the day I first saw her. It was the kind of day that forces you to question everything, including why the weather is so stubbornly dramatic in this part of the world. The clouds rolled in like they had a vendetta, yet the sun broke through in patches, casting an almost e

The Sympathy Beggar: A Tale of a heart seeking True love

In a quiet, mysterious Asian town, Mili, a self-professed “sympathy addict,” yearns for genuine love amidst the enchantment of lush landscapes and eccentric locals. A poignant journey, she faces harsh truths, introspective questions, and surprising warmth along the way. Will she transcend the “sympathy trap” or remain a beggar of borrowed love? In a place so mystifying it could have existed in a daydream, perched in the fog-draped hills of Valanpur, where wild jasmine bloomed beneath a veiled sky, there lived a young woman named Mili. Valanpur, mind you, was not an ordinary place; it was a town small enough for secrets to survive but large enough for whispers to travel. Picture Credits: Sergey Romanenko And here, under a canopy of lush forests and swaying tamarind trees, Mili—a petite woman with eyes that sparkled with the misplaced audacity of someone searching for love in all the wrong places—was about to confront the thorniest of human desires. But first, let me make one thing very
