To me, the trick is not how can I make people laugh. It is, how can I make people laugh in a different way. Vir Das laughmakepeople Change image and share on social
I was only 24 years old when a lady called Sabina Sehgal Saikia - the then 'Delhi Times' editor - asked me to host the 'Times Food Guide Awards,' so it was with The 'Times of India' that my career began in this field. Vir Das askawardbegin share on social

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
It's very important to not repeat yourself. After 'Delhi Belly,' I was offered 40 'Delhi Belly's and you can't do that! So 'Revolver Rani' is dark and gritty with action, 'Sooper Se Oopar' is a big commercial love story, 'Santa Banta' is a 'theth' Punjabi comedy, 'Golu Aur Pappu' is a kids' film and 'Amit Sahni Ki List' is an urban romcom.
