“I belong nowhere but the stage. It’s the only place where I feel fearless and I feel at home.”
These are the words of an artist who represents the face of Indian Comedy at a global stage. An unconventional face and learned mind, who broke into Bollywood with a shot in the dark, now travels universally with comedy as his first love and protector.
His jokes have struck chords through New York and Chicago to Kashmir and 'Andheria Mod ki Chudail' in Delhi. Spending his early childhood in Africa, then in India and an avid Shakespeare lover, Vir is a gem of a storyteller. His stories are personal and yet blend with the global standard.
The first Indian comedian to land up a Netflix Special, and how he'll never be an insider in Bollywood to what is his stand on his responsibility towards his country, Vir has spoken his heart out.
Get ready with some tissues, because you are going to cry out of sheer laughter.
Here's, presenting you a comic, an actor, a writer and big time controversial with 'Two Indias' - The artist who has mastered the craft of humor and represents the billions - Vir Das!

About Humans of Bombay -
Humans of Bombay is a movement that started 8 years ago. We believe that every person has a story to tell and we want to help them tell these stories. In these years we’ve published stories across genres - stories of love, hope, faith and courage. And through our storytelling, we’ve built an engaged community of over 4.5M!
Our idea is simple - to strike a chord with our community and catalog the beat of humanity, one story at a time.
