In Hindi “dil” means heart and “ruk” means stop! While Dilruk isn’t Indian, Heart Stopper is an apt title for his brand-new hour of stand-up, given that last year, one of his arteries tried to hit the brakes on his heart.
Spoiler alert: he survived. His new show is about setbacks, overcoming them and manscaping mishaps.
Dilruk Jayasinha has filmed a stand-up special for Amazon Prime, appeared on Utopia, Celebrity MasterChef Australia and Have You Been Paying Attention?.
'He rode the crowd’s energy like a consummate professional. ★★★★' The Age
'He has an innate ability to make even the worst of the worst worth a hearty laugh. ★★★★' Time Out

Venue Access
The entrance to Supper Room is via the main Swanston St entrance and the venue is on Level 3. There are three steps from street level leading to the portico and the entrance to the venue is via a doorway on the right-hand side (when facing the main steps). Once inside the doorway, three more steps leads to a large marble staircase and then it takes three flights of stairs to reach the Supper Room.
For step-free/wheelchair access, there is a ramp on the left-hand side of the portico from street level that leads directly to a doorway on the left-hand side. A small, sloped marble ramp leads towards a foyer and at the base of the large staircase, there are lifts on the left. The lift is then taken to Level 3, which opens out next to the bar and foyer space.
Accessible seating is available at the rear of the floor seats on both sides of the performance space. An accessible bathroom is available on Level 3.
Please see How to Book Your Ticket if you require step-free and/or wheelchair access in Supper Room and please see a Comedy Festival Front of House staff member when you arrive at the venue.
