More quotes by Vir Das
Whatever movies I sign, they have to get me out of my comfort zone. Otherwise, I would get bored very easily.
Vir Das
The idea is to do out-of-the-box films that showcase my versatility and talent.
Vir Das
Surround yourself with a bunch of like-minded people, and you'll soak up their habits like a starved sponge. Fat people with fat friends care less about their weight.
Vir Das
Class I to XII wasn't much help I was always a mediocre student. But when I pursued higher education and studied economics with theatre or psychology with science fiction, I got a whole new world view.
Vir Das
Someday social media might, hopefully in some small measure, wake up to the fact that other people's failures are not your successes.
Vir Das
Time management is the mantra of my life.

A stand-up comedian will never be the life of a party. Instead, he will be the guy who is standing at a corner and observing people.
Vir Das
In a big Bollywood romantic film, taking my shirt off and spreading the hand towards the mountain with dancers behind me are not my cup of tea.
Vir Das
I'm a stand-up comedian-turned-actor-turned-vampire at night.
Vir Das
I do films which get me out of my comedian routine so that I don't get bored being a stand-up comedian. And with films, it's here today, gone tomorrow. So stand-up comedy is here to stay for me.

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
My personal favorite is Woody Allen, who is just amazing as a comedian.
Vir Das
I fear debt. I don't like being indebted to banks. I have a rule in life that I will get it when I can afford it.
Vir Das
You realise the responsibility of carrying a film on your shoulders when people are investing money in you and they recognise the hard work you have to put in.
Vir Das
Relationship humour gets the most laughs. If I'm able to get the women laughing, men will have to laugh along because they would be scared to death.
Vir Das
Comedy is a live art, and the only way to record a comedy rock album is to do it live. The audience and their laughter is just as much a part of the album sound as our music. No retakes, no room for error.
Vir Das
I have a rule - 'funny is funny!' When I write comedy, it's not my aim to upset people. I will be offensive, edgy and immature, but I will also be very intelligent and relevant. At my shows, there are no holy cows.
Vir Das
I auditioned nine times for 'Delhi Belly,' and it was torturous!
Vir Das
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
Comedy comes from confusion.
