Description

“Comedy, this job on its best day, can sometimes be alchemy.” Comedian & actor Vir Das discusses the journey he’s been on over the last few years, from facing strong backlash over his poem “I Come From Two Indias,” to winning an International Emmy for his Netflix special about the aftermath of that controversy, “Vir Das: Landing.” Plus, he gives Kal Penn credit for influencing him to attend college in America and shares why it’s important to be “authentically Indian” on his 33-country Mind Fool stand-up tour. #DailyShow #VirDas #KalPenn Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/?ftag=PPM-05-10aei0b Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral Watch full episodes of The Daily Show: https://www.cc.com/shows/the-daily-show About The Daily Show: For over twenty-five years, the groundbreaking, Emmy and Peabody award-winning The Daily Show has entertained audiences each night with hilarious, provocative and insightful satire about our society that helps make sense of the world.

This was such an honest and respectful interview where both parties admire each others work, and rightly so. As an Indian, it gives me immense joy to see Vir Das succeed and I agree with everything he said here. It is because of people like Kal Penn that we can even think of coming to the US and making our mark globally. I love the immigrant show concept with Andy, can’t wait to watch it!! I’ve always seen shows where we see Indian representation as American born Indians but never how we come here when we’re adults and try to make a life. Wooh! So excited!!
