Vir Das gave India much to cheer about at the 51st International Emmy Awards by winning an award for his Netflix special Vir Das: Landing in the Comedy category. The comedian-actor shared his first-ever International Emmy win with Derry Girls - Season 3. Now, Vir Das has dropped a video of his acceptance speech on Instagram. The clip of the speech – which is a love note of sorts to India from Vir Das – was shared with the caption: “Thank you for your laughter.” In his speech, Vir Das said, “More than anything else I am here for India. I would like to thank you for your laughter. It is a symphony of love, it is an orchestra of freedom, it is a universal lyric that reminds us we are not alone and it is the soundtrack to this idiot's life. May it play louder until the entire world dances with us. Thank you. Namaste. Jain Hind. Assalamualaikum. Sat Sri Akaal. Love and peace. Thank you.”
In response, Nakuul Mehta said, “This is beautiful [heart emoji].” Maria Goretti wrote, “This is just so well deserved Vir, big big heartfelt congratulations.” Anusha Dandekar dropped heart emojis, while Pallavi Sharda reacted with fire emojis.
This is Vir Das's second nomination at the International Emmy Awards. Previously, his special Vir Das: For India was also nominated in 2021.
