Comedian and Actor Vir Das has emerged as one of the most beloved voices in
comedy worldwide with The New York Times gushing “No artist embodies the
globalization of stand-up like Vir Das.” His fourth and most recent Netflix comedy
special Landing premiered to universal praise from fans and critics alike earning
Das a 2023 International Emmy Nomination for “Best Comedy,” his second
overall. His previous Netflix special Vir Das: For India was nominated for a 2021
International Emmy for “Best Comedy” as well. Landing, which Vir also directed,
is a story about freedom, foolishness, the west, the east, the notion of home, and
what it means to be a citizen of one nation in a global world. The special
which The Daily Beast called Das’ “strongest hour of stand-up yet“ and
which Decider declared offers “plenty of food for thought…for both current
citizens of India, Indian-American children of immigrants, and even those of us
with no ties to India,” is a capstone to Vir having performed the show more than
180 times in countries across the globe including a wildly successful run at The
Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
As India’s biggest stand-up comedian and a Bollywood star, Vir was the second
best-selling live act in the country last year. He is currently on his
international Mind Fool tour which is stopping in countries on every continent
except Antarctica in 2023-2024. His most massive tour yet, Mind Fool will bring
the international star to multiple iconic venues including Carnegie Hall in New
York City, Esplenade in Singapore, Dubai Opera in UAE, and The Eventim
Apollo in London, to name a few. In addition to his success on the standup
comedy stage, Vir has created, produced, and starred in multiple series,
including the ABC spy drama-comedy Whiskey Cavalier, the thriller Hasmokh for
Netflix, and the travel show Jestination Unknown for Amazon. He starred in Judd
Apatow’s Netflix feature The Bubble and he is currently developing his own
single-camera comedy with Fox, CBS Studios and Andy Samberg’s production
company Party Over Here. He is also the lead singer for India’s premiere
comedy-rock band Alien Chutney.
