Dilruk’s work extends beyond television and live performances; in 2018, he received the Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent at the TV Week Logie Awards, one of the highest honors in Australian entertainment. His stand-up special, Dilruk Jayasinha: I Can’t Feel My Face, is available worldwide on Prime Video, further cementing his reputation as one of Australia’s top comedic talents.
