Vir Das who is one of the most widely followed and popular comedians in the country has carved a niche spot in the industry for himself. In his latest stand-up release, titled How To Unite Social Media, he narrated an incident where he was called a Bollywood star by a Czech newspaper. Vir Das did not like the comment and did not want to be considered a Bollywood star. He had his own reasoning for it and he did it in a wise and hilarious way.
A report on koimoi.com talked about it and we take reference from that story for our write up here.
“I am not a Bollywood star. I am a comedian that sometimes does movies. F*cking Shah Rukh Khan is a Bollywood star. The biggest star in the world. Google ‘Shah Rukh Khan’. Women throw their underwear at Shah Rukh Khan. Aunties throw it like cricketer ‘Aye Shah Rukh’…spin. ”, Vir Das said.
Giving another hilarious twist to the story, Vir Das said, “Women have thrown their underwear at me but it is always followed by questions. ‘Vir could you put that in the washing machine please?’ ‘Vir did you wear this?’”
Wow!! Vir’s answer was a befitting reply and the manner in which he gave it was outstanding!!
