Originally a stand-up comic, Vir Das became a household name in India after his breakthrough role in the 2011 dark comedy film Delhi Belly. After a short and successful stint in Bollywood, Vir turned to stand-up comedy in 2017 and became the first Indian comedian to score a comedy special on Netflix.
