A lot of people do comedy about India, but they're not from India. It's a Kwik-E-Mart perspective. I want to provide a genuine view and maybe one on how we see the West. Vir Das comedygenuineindia Change image and share on social

All of the films I'm doing are young, urban, high-concept, funny films. That's the zone where I'd like to play and have fun in. Vir Das conceptfilmfun Change image and share on social
Whatever movies I sign, they have to get me out of my comfort zone. Otherwise, I would get bored very easily. Vir Das borecomforteasily Change image and share on social
Chennai is one of the scariest crowds to face. Everyone looks so conservative, but once you crack the first joke, they are so appreciatively loud that they will hit you with a laugh that will scare you stiff and yet give you energy. Chennaiites give me the loudest laughs; it's the coolest crowd to perform for. Vir Das appreciativelychennaichennaiites share on social
I love the food, the girls, the sky and everything that is Delhi. I have very fond memories of the Moolchand flyover. Vir Das delhiflyoverfond Change image and share on social
I am honestly very intimidated when I meet new people and they expect me to be the onscreen Vir. On stage, I say a lot of things I might never say in real life; I am never the life of the party. People are quite surprised to see that I am more of a quiet artiste off stage. Vir Das artisteexpecthonestly share on social
Movies require a lot of patience. I like instant results. If I have done something that's not funny at all, the audience will let me know in two seconds. With the movie, I will have to wait nine months to know if I was that bad. Vir Das audiencebadfunny share on social
While Mumbai is a melting pot of cultures, Delhi is made of community, and we can see these lines quite clearly. An aunty from Punjabi Bagh will be different from a Faridabad aunty or an aunty from Vasant Kunj. Vir Das auntybaghcommunity share on social
