More quotes by Vir Das

Vir Das
All of the films I'm doing are young, urban, high-concept, funny films. That's the zone where I'd like to play and have fun in.

I'm a stand-up comedian-turned-actor-turned-vampire at night.

To me, the trick is not how can I make people laugh. It is, how can I make people laugh in a different way.

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.
Vir Das
I did theatre in the U.S. because there, content-wise, it's very light. In India, theatre tends to get preachy.
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 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
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
I auditioned nine times for 'Delhi Belly,' and it was torturous!
Vir Das
I've been reading a lot of books on history, and watching a lot of educational TV. Wikipedia too, even though it is not reliable.
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
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
In 'Delhi Belly,' I was bald in other movies I always carried a different look.
