Priyanka started her film production company, Purple Pebble Pictures. Vir Das tweeted, "Thank you @priyankachopra for the flowers and for every door you’ve opened for the rest of us. You’re awesome!"
When asked about the comparisons to Priyanka Chopra earlier this year, Vir pondered on their US success and remarked, "I am nowhere even close to the level of Priyanka. Like Priyanka is the global Indian. I walk into a room, and there's like 'you're Indian, you like Priyanka Chopra, no?' So that is a thing now."
Vir Das's stand-up special, ‘Vir Das: Landing’, which explores the experience of being genuinely global while seeking a home, was honoured with the International Emmy Award.
Vir Das has appeared in several Hindi films, including ‘Badmaash Compan (2010), Delhi Belly (2011) and Go Goa Gone (2013).
