We discuss, othering, war, majority, minority and more. Ten on Ten is fresh material written the night before a show to talk about the difficult things through comedy. I'm also on a world tour. 33 Countries. Get tix on my site!
So apparently i'm crap at titling videos. We changed it to Brother vs Other unless you people who know amazing things about the algorithm have a better suggestion? I would appreciate your spreading the world for this digitally irrelevant fellow :-) and yeah...comment for the algo and stuff.
Vir Das. I CONSUMED you for hours and hours last evening and today (I've always been a fan), and I'm just so overwhelmed (in the best possible way) by your intelligence, by how well informed you are, the way you rep the country globally like no other celebrity with your knowledge of everything from statistics to history, literally EDUCATING ppl while you make them laugh and HOW - punch after punch after fucking punch! And the balls of steel that you have baba. Comfortable with uncomfortable topics, sensitive with, well, sensitive topics, and funny as hell through it all! Okay I truly believe that noone reps India the way you do (and this seems like a good time to acknowledge the fact that YOU were in an American TV show first, yes?). Oh and I also truly believe that if everyone in the country heard you talk about everything you do talk about - from feminism, inclusivity, politics and all the way to history, statistics and the whole world, not only would people learn shit, but would also be better people! Shit, I've never commented on anything before.. Not with so much passion at least! But you deserve love, adulation, respect and SO MUCH MORE! You, I think, are the most intelligent man not just in comedy, but like in general, in the country and the world and shit! Lots of love and respect.
"You need old men with power and young men with hatred. Because the only thing young men want is the power of old men and the only thing that powers old men is the hatred of young men" This guy summed up Maharashtra politics in two lines. 🙂
The fact that he mimicked a pressure cooker whistle at the end to make it sound like a siren is probably the most layered and genius message I have heard from him yet. That was incredible.
I thought it was in reference that when we meet the "other" and actually talk to each other, we realize that we're not enemies and that pressure releases. There doesnt have to be a war for the preasure to reset. That was my interpretation atleast ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
“Wonder Woman would be bombing Palestine” my goodness I’ve not seen any standup comedian with such a good observation and such great one liners where you have to stop and think what he just said😂
@pravesharya1073 okay so the role of wonder woman is played by the actress gal Godot who is from Israel and as you know there's a conflict going on between Israel and Palestine so yeah that's the reason he said that
The whole set was worth it just for the ending. Perfect!! "When history looks upon you unkindly, you will blame it on some gigantic dictator above you but really you submitted to a dictator inside you" A line to remember 20yrs from now..
@@rafeeahraahima6876we can relate it with many other things also. A giant egomaniac dictator enforcing senseless rules on men. Or is it the people on the earth dictating madeup rules in the name of a guy in the clouds! Ring a bell?
Vir being the amazing storyteller that he is. Loved every bit of it. "The first bullet in every war is the fourth pillar." Stuff that will get you thinking for real.
@@zahraghandi1361hey i might be wrong but my interpretation was: The four pillars of democracy- the Legislature, Executive, Judiciary and the Media. So the message becomes... The 4th pillar 'media' is the first bullet fired in a war. if my guess is correct. I will leave the rest of the meaning up to you mate. Thinking hard about these things is important for us all.
Sometimes I forget if he’s doing stand-up or delivering philosophical/motivational speech. But gotta say, I have got mad respect for this guy. Love everything he does. Dropping truth bombs wrapped in jokes, and giving us reality checks. This guy is a legend. ❤
This guy is the Messi of communicators. He dribbles like a boss inside your head, goes very fast so you have to keep up, moves around so many heavy topics and emotions, and finally hits home the big point in spectacular fashion. And makes you smile at the work of art at the end. What a craftsman.
“For a global conflict to occur or for the war to occur, you need two things: 1:25 You need old men with power and young men with hatred. Very tough to pull off, right? Because the only thing that the young men want is the power of old men. And only thing that powers old men is the hatred of the young.” Damn Vir, how do you pull off such finesse in your writing every single time? :)) You're always raising the bar. ❤
Share this with an-other :-) I hope you enjoy the episode guys, I know i dont put them out so frequently but i like to really think about them and at least try and get them right. I would appreciate your spreading the world for this digitally irrelevant fellow :-) and yeah...comment for the algo and stuff.
Spreading the "word" @thevirdas. You're only going to get bigger and bigger, I've grown to accept and enjoy typos in your subtitles, maybe it was okay when your RU-vid channel was smaller but I can see you reaching greater heights I don't want the world to think less of my favourite comedian. Lots Of Love and LOL.
you just nailed it bro.... wow... just wow... amazing.. maja hi aa gaya bhai... kya to layer by layer design kiya hai is episode ko... great... maja hi aa gaya❤️❤️❤️
Saying this again man, I hope you read this. I miss old Vir Das. My mom listens to everything you say but through an old guy wearing robes and sitting on a gigantic throne, talking in a native toung to the crowd who is there just to cheer everything he says. Please don't be that guy; atleast some times. This is not me being a comedy expert, but just your, once loyal, customer trying to give you an honest feedback. Maybe I am no longer your target audience, but I still hope to see the Vir again who would make me laugh more than cheer. Will keep coming back to find that Vir though. Love!
This guy will be huge this year. I have never seen someone so compelling, funny and great at communicating while keeping the mood light despite the heavy topics. Truly incredible. Made of the stuff of the greatest. I'm so glad I found him. Greetings from Italy.
You look just fine my man, and honestly with all you were saying, I (and many of us) barely noticed the clothes. I was thinking of going back but maybe some other time. In a hope you will see this, growing up in India, we pledge everyday to treat everyone like a brother and yet somehow we learn to make them the other.
These thoughts should reach to every one in the world because it applies to all the countries and its citizens. Golden word put together. Bitter truth and reality. Youngsters are weponised with hatred by older people by the name of history.
Oh My God! I am blown! The only comedian who can blend deep conversations with fun, so beautifully, at the same time is Vir. I am speechless! Vir has the ability to delivery extremely messages in such a subtle, light way. Amazing!
Man I love him like hell. This man is the hero that we need. He's not just amazing comedian/actor but also a really smart and deep philosopher. Cant wait to see what he's gon do.
That was brilliant! There was a time when reality was scary and jokes were funny... Now the reality is funny and jokes are scary. Eerily true to be honest...
Comedy has always facilitated critical thinking and helped people to talk about serious topics in a more relaxed way, but this guy is another level! I have never had the pleasure of seeing such an amazing amalgamation of humor and philosophy! Elevated comedy at it's best!
This man is an absolute legend. Stubbled onto one of his videos while absently scrolling thru shorts, and instantly knew this guy was next level. He's more like stand-up+, the man is simply brilliant and the things he says are equal parts funny and profound.
A standup bit for ages.....History will applaud @thevirdas for being brave in his standup even after so much of threats he's been receiving...Lots of respect man!!
Wow!! Just wow... this is at a different level. Not only did you manage to make us laugh but the depth in this video and the insight into human psyche with history sprinkled in, just amazing. You are brilliant!!
More than comedy, this is a brilliantly effective argument. Your usage of analogy and comedy strengthens the claim and makes it accessible. Wonderfully done.
You are what I wanted in India. If I can think of who can do the "Patriot Act" for India, it is you. Love your #TenOnTen series! Can you do something on the lines of - "Climate change and the bull shit Net Zero promises the world leaders are making which is obviously after the expiry date of the world?". Given how much of traction this is gaining where people spray paint every place and games to let people know. Your voice will amplify the cause! ❤️
It's more like a speech/lecture/class on Post-colonialism and Postmodernism. I wish we had you as a teacher in our University. You are brilliant! ❤️❤️❤️
Man is talking about world peace and the Indian media channels and people like Abhijit Chavda who are messengers of the govt talk rubbish without the basic interpretation of what he is saying. They can interpret it for what it is but they choose not to. Kudos to you Vir Das for the food for thought.
I never comment , but VIR this is outstanding i just loved the way you taught everyone a lesson through your comedy. It makes soo much of sense literally, Great jokes, great humour. Love you Man
Philosophy101. This is so amazing at multitude of levels. So much said and done in the name of comedy show. No wonder, you have a different class of fans.
Respect and gratitude are the two things you should put those beliefs away from you Because these are things which don't have a specific matric value to distribute between themselves or to one
Vir is far bette than any so called religious Gurus.what a philosophy man..kudos to you..felt like listening to this all day. Well said my freind.waiting eagerly for you next video . Till then let us behold and shake hands befor the whistle blows.😊
there is nothing left to say after reading the comment section, this video literally gave me goosebumps and got me attentive towards everything happening around the world, mind blown by the whole sett!!!
“For the global conflict to occur or for the war to occur, we need two things, a old man with power and a young man with hatred." Quite deep and painful truth
Oh man! Vir's shows are so cerebral! I don't think I have seen a more intelligent person than him on the internet. The closest one is Tanmay Bhat haha Loved the video!
Yeah I never understood the concept of respecting elders. Like do u want me to respect u for your survival on Earth from all these years? Edit: I posted this comment before the video was out and apparently he kind of said the same thing which is crazy to me - 9:22
She was part of their armed forces as every Israeli citizen is supposed to do 2 years in their late teens/early 20s, and she once actually celebrated some attack on Palestine. That's why he put that there, not just her nationality.
thanks man. one of the best video I've seen in the last 2 years. Everywhere I look someone is telling me he's wrong or she's wrong or the whole world is wrong without giving me any viable option to choose from or believe. So thank you again.
