The uddīpanas for hāsya-rasa are the humorous words, clothing and behavior of Kṛṣṇa. The anubhāvas are quivering of the nose, lips and cheeks. The vyabhicāri-bhāvas are harṣa (jubilation), ālasya (sloth), and avahitthā (concealing oneself). The sthāyi-bhāva is hāsa-rati.

In such a laughing ecstasy of love, Kṛṣṇa or matters pertaining to Kṛṣṇa are the cause of the laughter. In such laughing devotional service, there are symptoms of jubilation, laziness, concealed feelings and similar other seemingly disturbing elements.

— A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
Jīva Gosvāmī Gauḍīya
Commentary

The verse mentions only the words, dress and behavior of Kṛṣṇa, but the words and gestures of persons connected to Him (which are a cause of laughter) are also included.
