Vir Das Quotes

Alien Chutney is just what the name suggests it is. Its music that is so funny and quirky and weird that it feels entirely alien to the listener; yet, the content and the subject matter is so Indian and relatable, it’s still chutney Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

In Bollywood, people struggle because there is a new person joining every week, who joins an assembly line of people who are very replaceable. But if you are unique, you don’t have to struggle that much Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

While Mumbai is a melting pot of cultures, Delhi is made of community, and we can see these lines quite clearly. An aunty from Punjabi Bagh will be different from a Faridabad aunty or an aunty from Vasant Kunj Picture Quote #1

What I tell a girl is, your six-pack hot boyfriend right now, in six years, will be balding and maybe have a paunch. But I make you laugh every five minutes today, and I’ll make you laugh 20 years from now; that’s not going to go away Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

It might sound cliched, but choosing the right script is crucial. I think ‘Badmaash Company’ was a very big break for me because it gave me a lot of appreciation from the masses. It made me more confident as an actor Picture Quote #1

If you are known to do something well, people want to see you do that. But what you choose to do is up to you. After ‘Delhi Belly,’ I got some 40 scripts - some on the same lines as ‘Delhi Belly.’ So, I guess people only get stereotyped if they want to Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t call myself successful, just obsessively exhausted. The music makes me smile, the movies make me feel humbled, and the comedy saves my life every day Picture Quote #1

I’m kind of a rebound junkie. So. when a relationship goes sour, I look at the sweetness in life elsewhere. So, I date a bit. The best catharsis is to write jokes and tell 4,000 people about it Picture Quote #1

I think of myself as an Indian comedian, but I’ve had British and American schooling. I always had this feeling of not fitting in anywhere, of observing situations from the outside Picture Quote #1

I love the food, the girls, the sky and everything that is Delhi. I have very fond memories of the Moolchand flyover Picture Quote #1

Delhi women - they’re the most beautiful women! But the fact remains that they know they are gorgeous Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Whether I am on a stage, behind a guitar or in front of a camera, I get paid to misbehave. Fortunately, misbehaviour is something I have unlimited supply of Picture Quote #1

Comedy comes from confusion Picture Quote #1

Time management is the mantra of my life Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I feel like I share a great relationship with my audience where they trust my judgment and choice of films and sense of comedy Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

To me, the trick is not how can I make people laugh. It is, how can I make people laugh in a different way Picture Quote #1

Whatever movies I sign, they have to get me out of my comfort zone. Otherwise, I would get bored very easily Picture Quote #1
