Скачать или смотреть Vir das | Curiously Candid & Cleverly Quirky |Y so Serious?! Ep. 3

Vir Das is the global face of Indian stand-up — an actor, comedian, and writer who’s turned sharp satire into an international language. From Bollywood hits like Delhi Belly and Go Goa Gone to sold-out world tours and an International Emmy, he’s mastered the art of making the world laugh while making it think. His comedy blends biting humour, cultural insight, and personal storytelling, proving that laughter travels farther than borders.

In this episode, Vir Das opens up about his childhood, discovering comedy, standing up to bullies, and the highs and lows of fame. Along the way, he talks about behind-the-scenes moments from Delhi Belly, Go Goa Gone, and his upcoming AKP directorial — and drops a few laughs while promoting his new Netflix special Fool Volume. We also get into his writing process, life off stage, and the lessons he’d share with his younger self.
