‘It’s heartening to see Vir Das: Landing<\/em> resonate globally. Rhanks to Netflix, Aakash Sharma and Reg Tigerman who made it special. My journey from crafting local stories to receiving a global accolade has been both challenging and rewarding, and Netflix has been instrumental in that growth.<\/p>\n

‘I’m excited about the continued exploration of diverse narratives, from Noida to the International Emmys — India gets you there.’<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Vir Das: Landing<\/em> marks his fourth comedy special and competed with Le Flambeau<\/em> from France, El Encargado<\/em> from Argentina and Derry Girls Season 3<\/em> from the UK.<\/p>\n

Vir wore a traditional black bandhgala<\/em> for the awards ceremony.<\/p>\n

A day before the awards ceremony, Vir posted a video on his Instagram story in which he said, ‘The day he was called a terrorist, he was nominated for the Emmys’.<\/p>\n

‘The universe is a full circle. So just wanted to say thanks and that if anyone out there is ever in the dark, stay till sunlight, and know that love will find you, and the universe will carry you.’<\/p>\n

Vir’s third standup special Vir Das: For India<\/em> received a 2021 International Emmy Nomination for Best Comedy.<\/p>\n
