Dilruk Jayasinha

Gratitude Guy

  • Australia

Dilruk Jayasinha confidently claims his superpower is “gratitude”. But after taking a break from touring last year, he realised he has actually spent most of the last few years whinging about his life. To be fair, his heart attack off the back of a global pandemic, sprinkled with a hearty serve of heartache from a breakup, are reasonable ingredients for a solid sook. But in spite of being single and alone at 40, and as the surgeries and visits to ER seem to keep coming, he is desperately trying to focus more on what’s going right in his life so he can return to being the GOAT (gratefullest of all time)!

Dilruk Jayasinha has appeared on Utopia and Celebrity MasterChef Australia and filmed a stand-up special for Amazon Prime.

Suitable for audiences 15+
