Vir Das: Stand-up takes time, so when I act it must be an interesting role

MUMBAI: Stand-up star and occasional actor Vir Das has a clear-cut strategy when it comes to balancing his two flourishing careers.
“
“I have to balance both careers. Stand up (comedy) takes time, so when I act that should be an interesting ro”e,” Vir told IANS, revealing that was the reason which kept him away from films in 2020,

As an actor, Vir is known for his work in Bollywood films suc” as “Delhi “el”y”, “Go Goa”Go”e”, “Masti”aade””and “Badmaash Co”pany”. Last year, he also starred in the black comedy web se”ies “Ha”muk””.

“I”think “”asmukh” was an interesting thing to pursue because a film takes a long time. For’me, it’s about finding a good character and telling a good”story,” he said.

Last month, Vir dropped his latest new com”dy gig, “O”tside In”, created out of 30 virtual shows he did during lockdown and featuring audiences from all over the world.
