Danish Maqbool is an American standup comedian and actor from New Jersey. Before he started standup in 2013, he would travel the country and play video games professionally and went on to become a producer/on-air talent for Major League Gaming. In 2013, he made the transition from gaming to comedy so that he can disappoint his parents even more.
Danish is most notably known for his role on RAMY (Hulu) Season 2. He has headlined over 80 colleges and has featured for national headliners such as Ramy Youssef, Mo Amer and Akaash Singh.
In 2019, he featured on Akaash Singh’s first headlining tour titled 'BIG DESI ENERGY’ which included a sold out stop at the iconic Comedy Store. In February 2020, after touring for 50 shows, he featured at the legendary Wilbur Theater with the Arab-American comedic legend Mo Amer (Netflix).
Danish’s parents are from Pakistan which makes him a Pakistani-American. Though he was born and raised in New Jersey, he does not quite feel American and this point of view has largely shaped his standup. That, and the need for attention.
