Shortlisted for the 2021 BBC New Comedy Awards, Lady Bushra is the brainchild of British Asian comedian Amir, originally form Bradford, West Yorkshire.
The character of Lady Bushra is that of a Bradford bad girl who turned out to be a breakout sensation during lockdown and is known for her viral digital content and one liners. This clever mix of South Asian sensibilities blended with British humour has made Lady Bushra an instant hit, allowing Amir to take his act all over the UK as well as internationally.
Together with his husband, Amir also hosts an LGBT+ podcast called ‘You Don’t Love Me’.
