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.

More quotes by 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
Whatever movies I sign, they have to get me out of my comfort zone. Otherwise, I would get bored very easily.
Vir Das
Time management is the mantra of my life.
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
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
Delhi women - they're the most beautiful women! But the fact remains that they know they are gorgeous.
Vir Das
I auditioned nine times for 'Delhi Belly,' and it was torturous!

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.

My personal favorite is Woody Allen, who is just amazing as a comedian.
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
I did theatre in the U.S. because there, content-wise, it's very light. In India, theatre tends to get preachy.
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.
Vir Das
For me,it is very important to believe in the kind of movies I do. Rang De Basanti made me feel good about Indian cinema. The movie instilled in me,a confidence so strong,that I wanted to be a part of the revolution in Bollywood.
Vir Das
I am a big fan of Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller, who have carved a niche for themselves. I think doing different kind of films gives you longevity and the ability to set yourself apart.
Vir Das
When it comes to English stand-up comedy, Indians have only seen the best - Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Cosby and the like. So, when someone claims to be an English stand-up comedian in India, he'd better be very good if he's going to make a life of it.
Vir Das
In Bollywood, I think Boman Irani and Vinay Pathak are unbelievably good at comedy.
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
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.
