I just shot my new Netflix Special, man.

were conflicted when I won the award,

because I'm an English comedian in India.

117
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,360
And we have this post-colonial resentment
of the English language.

118
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,680
We equate English with privilege. Correct?

119
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,480
Falsely so, by the way.

120
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,440

two Indian critics,

mainstream critics got on TV.

"I don't like Vir Das."

She said, "His English is too good."

because they enunciate.

150
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,800

to enunciate means that you, uh…

154
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,000
Every time we'd hook up, she'll be like,
"Ey, suno, let's bang, no, men?"

161
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,120
one of India's top Hindi comedians
came up to me and he was like,

162
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,760
"Vir, you're too global.

163
00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:41,600
Indian stand-up is not global.

164
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,560
You sound privileged.
You have to sound relatable, like us."

165
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,440
And then he left in a Range Rover.

166
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,680

167
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,200

don't speak English, don't need English.

169
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,160
Think about it.

170
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,760

to England's top vocal doctor.

175
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:06,520
And he informed me

176
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,520
that I had massive vocals cysts
on both of my vocal cords.

177
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,680
[man speaks indistinctly]

178
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:11,840
And he said, "Mr. Das,

179
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,280
it could be seven months
before you speak properly again.

180
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,920
But you know, look at Djokovic.

181
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,200
Injured, out for six months.

182
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,280
Does so much physio…,"
[snaps fingers] "…back in five weeks.

183
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,520
You just gotta find
a Djokovic inside you."

184
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,920
[scattered laughter]

185
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,320
Do you know how patronizing it is

186
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,760
to compare a comedian
to a professional athlete?

187
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,040
That's equivalent to like,
if his patient dies,

188
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,160
and I'm like,
"I know it's sad but look at Jesus."

189
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,240
[audience chuckling]

190
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,560
"Crucified, out for eternity,
does so much physio…"

191
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,040
-[snaps fingers]
-[audience chuckling]

192
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,040
-"Back in three days!"
-[audience chuckling]

193
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,200
-"You just gotta find a Jesus inside you."
-[audience chuckling]

194
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,160
Can you imagine a brown man with a beard
telling a white man to find Jesus?

195
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,000
[audience chuckles]

196
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,760
The last guy who did that was Jesus.

197
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,760
[audience chuckling]

198
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,720
[scattered applause]

199
00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,800
But I'm training.

200
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,200
I just fired my American trainer.
I got a proper Indian trainer, right?

201
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaks Hindi, has a paunch.

202
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,800
[audience chuckling]

203
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,600
'Cause this western guy kept saying

204
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,000
all this privileged shit
I didn't understand.

205
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,880
He said, [in American accent]
"Mr. Das, if you wanna get really lean,

206
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,120
we gotta feed and fast, feed and fast.

207
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,280
We gotta surprise your body."

208
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,560
[in Indian accent] I was like,
"Bro, I live in Mumbai.

209
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,240
If I wanna surprise my body,
I will cross the road."

210
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,680
[audience laughing and cheering]

211
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,760
"I will be much leaner
when there is an SUV on top of my body."

212
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,600
Random privileged shit. "Mr. Das,
are you having any antioxidants?"

213
00:08:33,680 --> 00:08:36,120
I'm like, "The AQI is 599 right now.

214
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,240
What oxygen
are you referring to in Mumbai?"

215
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,440
At this point, my body converts
monoxide into dioxide.

216
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,040
I am an antioxidant.

217
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,560
We have lost half the crowd, by the way.
Half the crowd is gone, right?

218
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,600
They're like,
"Why's he teaching science?

219
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,200
Did not come here to learn about oxygen!"

220
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,400
[chuckles] "Just make me laugh, bro.
Don't make me think!"

221
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,680
This is you!

222
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,120
In the comments, "Just make me laugh, bro!

223
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,440
Don't make me think."

224
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,120
Get someone to tickle you,
you basic bitch, all right?

225
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,400
[audience laughing, cheering, applauding]

226
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,120
Random privileged shit.

227
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,400
"Uh, Mr. Das,
what're your thoughts on probiotics?"

228
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,160
Do you guys know about probiotics here?

229
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,000
"Your thoughts on probiotics?"

230
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,680
And I was like, "I believe
in a woman's right to choose."

231
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,560
[audience chuckling]

232
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,760
-"I am probiotic."
-[scattered chuckles]

233
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,800
He was like, "Mr. Das,
you're making a mistake."

234
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,840
And I said, "I shouldn't have to live with
that mistake for the rest of my life."

235
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,000
[audience laughing]

236
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,400
This trainer… it was so hard
not to sound like him

237
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,880
when I was talking to him.

238
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,720
-Indian people… we have a horrible habit.
-[audience chuckles]

239
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,680
When we talk to somebody
with a foreign accent,

240
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,400
like a dementor, we inhale their accent.

241
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,480
-[inhales deeply]
-[audience laughing]

242
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:50,640
[scattered, amused chuckles]

243
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,720
And do their accent back to their face.

244
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,840
[audience chuckles]

245
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,600
Like, a sweet French guy
will come over to your house for dinner.

246
00:09:57,680 --> 00:09:59,360
He'll be like,
[in French accent] "This is magnifique.

247
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,280
Could I have
some more chicken tikka, please?"

248
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,520
[in normal voice] You will walk
into your own kitchen,

249
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,560
look at your Indian mother

250
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,440
and be like, [in French accent]
"He would like some more chicken tikka."

251
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,200
[audience laughing and applauding]

252
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,000
[in normal voice] Your mother will come,
look at the French guy and be like,

253
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,640
[in French accent] "Beta,
would you like some more…"

254
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,040
[audience laughing]

255
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,920
[in normal voice] Now the French guy
is fucking terrified, right?

256
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,800
He's like, [in Indian accent]
"Uh, Aunty, I would like some more…"

257
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,040
[audience laughing]

258
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,160
[cheering and applauding continues]

259
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,160
Now, you're just three racists
surrounding a cold piece of chicken tikka.

260
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,760
To get rid of the evil eye, six pundits,
six priests were sent over to my house,

261
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,480
and they did an 8-hour worship ritual,

262
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:41,680
where they built a shivling
out of milk and ghee and ice

263
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,200
that stood by itself
six feet into the air.

264
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,160
One of the most beautiful things
I've ever seen.

265
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,320
I was like, "Can you complete
the bridges in Mumbai, please?"

266
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,640
[audience chuckling]

267
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,240
And the pundit was like,
"Now, you need to pray every night."

268
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,840
I couldn't talk to the pundit,
and I was like, "Well, that's

269
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,680
kind of why I hired you."

270
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,600
[scattered chuckles]

271
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:03,400
And he was like,
"Oh, we don't pray for you.

272
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,880
We just make sure
that your prayer is heard first."

273
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,600
[scattered chuckles]

274
00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:10,520
I was like, "So, you are
like the TSA precheck…"

275
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,600
[audience chuckling]

276
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:13,640
-"…of God?"

277
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:15,880
And he was like,
"Yeah, take your shoes off."

278
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,160
[audience laughing]

279
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,920
I don't pray that much, right?

280
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,960
Like, I casually take God's name
during orgasms and deadlifts, right?

281
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,040
[audience laughing]

282
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,120
Which, for me,
are very similar experiences, guys.

283
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,080
-You know, my knees don't cooperate.
-[audience chuckling]

284
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,680
[moaning] Looking in a mirror…
You know, the very…

285
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,320
[audience chuckling]

286
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,040
[chuckles] But, like…

287
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,160
Like, I talk to God. Like the other day,
I was praying because I lost my passport.

288
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:46,520
Like, you, sir, can get
a new passport in 24 hours

289
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,480
if you have contacts in the government.

290
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:52,000
Except for me, contact with the government
is why I need my passport.

291
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,320
[audience laughing]

292
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,200
So, if I lose my passport,
I haven't lost my passport.

293
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,040
God has taken my passport.

294
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,040
And I just find religion…

295
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,680
You know, when I'm desperate,
I laugh, right?

296
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,400
So, I was like, [chuckles]
"God, listen, I cannot

297
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,200
tell jokes to a world
I do not get to see."

298
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,120
And then all of a sudden,
a file in front of me flew open.

299
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,320
I heard a noise, which was like…
[mimics wind blowing explosively]

300
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,120
And my passport, I swear to God,
was five feet away, inside that file,

301
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,840
like, hidden under this paper
where some jokes were written.

302
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,240
And I was so happy
I cried happy tears over a piece of paper.

303
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,240
The last time I did that
a pregnancy test came negative.

304
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,640
[audience laughing]

305
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,280
I needed my passport
because I went to Australia.

306
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,520
-Uh…
-[scattered chuckles]

307
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,160
I'm sorry, any Australians
in the audience? Make some noise.

308
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,680
-[scattered] Whoa!
-Good to see you. I like your country.

309
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,800
I mean, you guys are, na,
you're like, England's Bangladesh.

310
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,560
[audience laughing and cheering]

311
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:47,760
Is that a… ?

312
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,840
-[audience continues laughing]
-Sorry, I apologise.

313
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,520
I apologise, I'm sorry.

314
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,600
-You're New Zealand's Pakistan.
-[audience continues laughing loudly]

315
00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:59,760
[audience applauding and whistling]

316
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,720
Here's what happened. I follow rules
when I'm at airports abroad.

317
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,560
I never wanna embarrass India abroad
unless it's at a large theatre.

318
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:09,920
[audience chuckles]

319
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,240
And this old Aussie lady

320
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,560
picked me out of line.

321
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,560
Full of white people
and she was like, "You sir,

322
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,000
you're gonna check your bag in."

323
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,920
I was like, "Madam
it's under 9 kilos, only one item."

324
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,400
She was like, "No!
you're gonna check your bag in."

325
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,200
I was pissed off.
Would you be pissed off?

326
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,120
[audience] Yes.

327
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,800
I was like, "Are you gonna check
any of the white people?"

328
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,840
All white people were like, "Fuck!
Now she's gonna check the white people!"

329
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,080
-[audience laughs]
-[chuckles]

330
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,760
She just pointed at me
and she was like, "No, just you!"

331
00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:41,000
I was delighted. I was.
I was like, "Oh, my God!

332
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,600
It's an OG racist."

333
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:44,840
[audience chuckling]

334
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,440
It's like seeing the Northern Lights.

335
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,880
You're like,
"I've seen in books and movies,

336
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,160
but it's so much more impressive
in person."

337
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,680
You never see
an OG racist in a modern setting.

338
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,440
It fucks with your brain, right?

339
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,480
It's like seeing a Nazi drink Boba tea.

340
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,920
[audience laughing]

341
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,160
Which I would pay
good money to see, yo! [chuckles]

342
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,280
Full SS uniforms…
[mimics slurping noisily]

343
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:07,640
He…

344
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,680
He… heil…

345
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,000
-Heil Hitler!
-[scattered chuckles]

346
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,680
I really do feel
racists are a marginalized community.

347
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,520
[audience chuckling]

348
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,680
Have you considered the struggle
of being a racist?

349
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,760
To identify as a bigot

350
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,360
but to be trapped
inside an intelligent person's body.

351
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,600
[audience laughing]

352
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,880
Racists have no public platforms.
It's just 80% of American podcast.

353
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,600
-That's it, right?
-[audience chuckling]

354
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,640
All of their good ideas have been stolen,

355
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,560
culturally appropriated from racists.

356
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,320
Racists came up with the N-word,
Hip Hop… [mimics swishing] took it.

357
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,240
[audience cheering]

358
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,440
Racists came up with segregation,
pickleball… [mimics swishing] took it.

359
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,760
[audience chuckles]

360
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,480
Racists came up with slavery,
Apple… [mimics swishing] took it.

361
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,720
[audience laughing loudly]

362
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,120
All their good ideas are gone.
Then what is the life of a racist?

363
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,200
You make a tiny Paki like me
check his luggage.

364
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,200
Then you go home
and have quiet missionary sex

365
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:58,680
under a picture of Churchill.

366
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,760
[audience laughing]

367
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:02,640
What's…

368
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,280
[laughing continues]

369
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,880
Picture of Winston Churchill…
it's got to be missionary.

370
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:07,840
[audience chuckling]

371
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,920
You can't do anal under Churchill.

372
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,600
[audience laughing]

373
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,280
Churchill has never seen, uh…

374
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,560
[audience chuckling]

375
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:15,720
…"colon"isation.

376

[audience laughing,

377
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,400
-I…
-[audience applauding and cheering]

378
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,160
I'm walking into first class.

379
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,480
She keeps smiling at me
with victory in her eyes.

380
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,920
Something in me snapped.

381
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,520
Usually, Indian people,
we shut up and take it, right?

382
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,320
I was like, "Madam,
I hope an Indian marries your daughter."

383
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,080
[audience laughing loudly]

384
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,400
I hope her daughter comes home
with a beautiful Indian man.

385
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,880
-Fucking Dev Patel's face…
-[audience chuckles]

386
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,520
-…with Sadhguru's mustache… [chuckles]
-[audience chuckles]

387
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:46,920
…on, like, my body.

388
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,360
They have to sleep in the next room

389
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,360
and listen to weird Indian-Aussie mix sex
coming through the wall all night long.

390
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,400
Yes, "Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!"
"Oye! Hoye! Hoye!"

391
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,480
[audience laughing loudly]

392
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,480
-[audience cheering and applauding]
-[chuckles] Just…

393
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,880
Just… Hah! Tu! [mimics engine revving]

394
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,760
[audience laughing hysterically]

395
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,720
Guys, she was 65.

396
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,040
You gotta have empathy.

397
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,680
It is possible
to love an old racist, right?

398
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,080
Indians, go to your family
WhatsApp group right now.

399
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,320
[audience chuckling]

400
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,800
Fun fact, if you cannot find a racist
in your family WhatsApp group,

401
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:21,920
you're the fucking racist.

402
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,440
[audience laughing]

403
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:25,600
Don't be… don't be ashamed.

404
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,440
One of my grand aunts,
legendary Islamophobe.

405
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:29,880
-[audience chuckling]
-Legendary!

406
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:31,960
Platinum member frequent flyer bigot.

407
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,040
[audience laughing]

408
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,280
Every time she saw me do stand-up,
she'll be like, "Hai Allah!"

409
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,200
[audience chuckles]

410
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,160
I was like, "Don't you…"
[chuckles] "…hate Muslims?"

411
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,040
She'll be like, "Yeah, but when
I'm disappointed, I invoke their god."

412
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,960
[audience laughing and cheering]

413
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,920
Why bother our own?

414
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,680
Then I got taken
to Adele's speech therapist.

415
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:52,880
[hums and blows]

416
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,640
She has the same problem as me,
same level of talent.

417
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,680
-And, uh… [chuckles]
-[audience chuckling and cheering loudly]

418
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,320
It's this tiny Jewish lady
who charges a lot of money,

419
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,840
and she gave me this.

420
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:04,880
-This is a kazoo.
-[scattered laughter]

421
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,760
She was like, [in Jewish accent] "When you
can play, 'happy birthday' on the kazoo,

422
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,680
you're ready
for theatrical performances again."

423
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,680
And I was like, "When you can do burpees
on a marshmallow carpet,

424
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,120
you're ready for an appendectomy,
because I thought we were playing a game

425
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,640
where we said
fucking nonsense sentences to each other."

426
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,760
[audience chuckling]

427
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,360
This is impossible to make a noise out of.

428
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,320
[blowing]

429
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Doesn't happen.
The noise has to come from within.

430
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:35,360
Every day, 20 times a day,
I was like… [blows shrill quacks]

431
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,480
Do you know how many ducks
have shown up to my house…

432
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,000
[audience laughing and applauding]

433
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,760
-…looking for action… [chuckles]
-[audience chuckles]

434
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:44,880
…and received it…

435
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,480
[audience laughing loudly]

436
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,560
…because we are speaking
the same language?

437
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,440
-[audience chuckling]
-[chuckles]

438
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:52,560
Duck shows up, I'm like…

439
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,600
[plays sultry music on kazoo ]

440
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,720
[audience cheering and applauding]

441
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,480
[continues playing sultry music on kazoo]

442
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,400
[audience cheering loudly]

443
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,520
[audience applauding]

444
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,960
You got your money's worth, right?
Musical performance.

445
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,160
[scattered laughter]

446
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,720
But she was like, "Mr. Das,
you've been using your voice wrong

447
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:17,800
for 20 years."

448
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,880
And I was like,
"How left-wing intellectual of you."

449
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,320
[audience chuckling]

450
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,680
This is why I like the younger generation.
Anybody here, 18 to 25? Make some noise.

451
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,560
-[audience squealing]
-I like you guys.

452
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,720
'Cause you're outspoken,
you're not silent, you share.

453
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,880
You're brave. You put yourself out there.

454
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,960
We give you feedback,
you get triggered, we laugh.

455
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,760
-That's the system.
-[audience laughing and applauding]

456
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,840
[Vir] That's great! That's…

457
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,400
That's why we… [chuckles]

458
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,880
That's why we let you believe
you have your own truth.

459
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,120
[audience chuckles]

460
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,160
-Your truth is our content.
-[audience laughing]

461
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,160
Hi, I have two nephews.
They are the generation below Gen Z.

462
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,600
What are they called?

463
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,400
-Morons? I…
-[audience laughing]

464
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,040
My nephews are 14.
I took them to a museum.

465
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,040
My nephew is super pissed off

466
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:03,920
that a massive European painting
will not fit into his phone this way.

467
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000
[audience chuckling]

468
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,400
And I was like,
"Fucker! Just turn your phone."

469
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,040
And he's like,
"Vir mama, you don't understand.

470
00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:12,200
The world has changed.

471
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,760
Life is vertical."

[audience laughing]

473
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,520
I was like,
"I'm gonna change my will now."

00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,080
[audience laughing]

475
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,480
"I'm not gonna cut you off.
I will leave you everything I have

476
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,040
if you cremate me vertical."

[audience laughing]

478
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,320
"With these eyes open, I wanna look down
at the family while I burn, all right?

479
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:34,000
And I want a DJ playing, like,
techno music behind me, right?

480
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,680
I want it to be like,
sunburn meets sati, all right? And…"

[audience laughing]

482
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,920
"And like, grief meets
Glastonbury, all right? Like…

483
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,480
Like burning man meets burning man."

485
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:46,600
"And I want you to…" [chuckles]

486

"…film the entire thing
and upload it to Instagram,

487
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,560

[audience cheering and applauding]

00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,880
Which is almost the perfect caption
for a cremation, right?

491
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,200
So easily manipulated
because you commodify distraction.

492
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,800
All you wanna do is have the drop.

493
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,600
You can do one-hour show for Gen Z
with one punchline.

Gen Z is like, "Let him cook, bro!"

510
00:20:53,360 --> 00:20:55,360
[audience laughing]

511
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,480
And that is a perfect caption
for a cremation.

512
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,480
[audience laughing]

513
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,720
Then four weeks before the stadium show,
I tried homeopathy.

514
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,320
Anybody doesn't know
what homeopathy is make some noise.

515
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,080
-[scattered clapping]
-Yeah, I'll explain.

516
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,960
So, sir, a homeopath
is a lonely virgin man…

517
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,160
[audience chuckling]

518
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,000
…who sits in a two-foot by two-foot room

519
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,800
surrounded by white powder, all right?

520
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,080
It's… It's like a closet at a Diddy party.

521
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,000
-[splutters]
-[audience chuckles]

522
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,640
And he gave me white powder
to put in my fucking face.

523
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,040
I was like, "What is this?"
and he was like, "Doesn't matter."

524
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:33,320
[audience chuckles]

525
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,960
So now, eight times a day,
I put white powder into my fucking face.

526
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,320
I don't even do stand-up anymore.
I work in finance.

527
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,400
[audience laughing]

528
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,040
I'm an addict.

529
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:44,960
[scattered cheers and laughter]

530
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,640
Here's the problem with your generation.

531
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,320
-Um…
-[audience laughing]

532
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,240
You got addicted
to performative validation

533
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,400
on dopamine devices.

534
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,400
You guys are obsessed with identity.

535
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,360
Not personality.

536
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,760
So, when you put yourself out there,
it's what you are, not who you are.

537
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,040
So, you're trying
to gather and broadcast labels

538
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,360
'cause they all represent
shots of dopamine.

539
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,480
from the internet that you're addicted to.

540
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,360
So you're not just a human being.

541
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,800
You're a polyamorous, ADHD, vegan,
juggler, who's religiously agnostic,

542
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,400
but Avengers Adjacent, right?

543
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,280
And… listen, I…
I don't wanna patronize you,

544
00:22:14,360 --> 00:22:16,280
but as you get older,

545
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:19,720
you discover that the world
is really fucking basic. Right, grownups?

546
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,160
[murmured ascent]

547
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,160
Amulya, there are only two types
of people in the entire world.

548
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,440
There are assholes

549
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,960
and there are people
who deal with assholes.

550
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,520
-That's it. That's the entire world.
-[audience applauding and cheering]

551
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,880
Let's not be unevolved, there are
intersectional assholes in the world.

552
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,360
There are black assholes, white assholes,
straight assholes, gay assholes,

553
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:41,400
trans assholes.

554
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,840
On the flipside,
some vegans are nice people.

555
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,440
[audience laughing]

556
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:46,440
People are nuanced.

557
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,160
They're complex. Right, London?

558
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,600
I'm just saying
even Adolf Hitler was a dog lover.

559
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:52,560
Remember?

560
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,360
Side note. How confused
do you think Hitler's dog was?

561
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,640
[audience laughing]

562
00:22:58,360 --> 00:23:00,600
Dog only understands visuals,
not politics, right?

563
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,600
If you're Hitler's dog,

564
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,680
every time your dad is outside,
your dad is like…

565
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,360
[mimics Hitler's fiery speech in German]

566
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:09,800
Never throws a ball.

567
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,880
[audience laughing]

568
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,440
[audience applauding and cheering]

569
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,320
Then when you're silent,
what you discover is

570
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,600
you make up your own sign language
that nobody understands but you.

571
00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:24,400
I looked at my assistant.
I wanted a decaf black and I was like…

572
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,480
[whispers] "I would like a decaf black."

573
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,360
[audience chuckles]

574
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,360
[in normal voice] He was like, "What?"
I'm like, [whispers] "a decaf black."

575
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:37,400
"What?" [chuckles]

576
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,320
I was like,
[whispers] "Your mother is a whore."

577
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,360
[audience laughing]

578
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,120
[in normal voice]
"You wanna a decaf black?"

579
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,400
[audience laughing]

580
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,680
Everybody around you gets quiet as well.

581
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,120
Everybody is like, "Oh, my God!"
[whispers] "You've lost your voice!"

582
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,160
-[voice fades] "That's so sad."
-[audience chuckles]

583
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,200
[whispers] "Would you like a decaf black?"

584
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,280
[audience chuckles]

585
00:23:58,360 --> 00:23:59,760
[mouths] "Yes!"

586
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:01,920
[scattered laughter]

587
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,640
And you discover that when one person
breaks silence is contagious.

588
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:08,880
And I get it because

589
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,480
if you ever land into controversy
by choice or not by choice,

590
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:13,720
you become a story.

591
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,920
And the problem
of becoming a story is, uh…

592
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,440
you're milked for attention
no matter where you go.

593
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,520
Every time I was in New York,

594
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,680
or somewhere in the UK, a white journalist
would show up and they'll be like,

595
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:25,960
[accented] "Oh my God!

596
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:31,400
Can we do like a 9000-word exclusive on
how you're being silent on your plight?"

597
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,200
[subdued laughter]

598
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:36,640
"I'm sorry, my plight?

599
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,440
Forgive me, madam. It feels like you need
some sort of eastern-oppression story

600
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,960
to feel better
about where you live. All right?"

601
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,920
-Listen, somebody's--
-[audience cheering]

602
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,560
Somebody's plight is like their erection.

603
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:48,480
All right?

604
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,960
I know it's hard to look at,
but it's rude to point it out.

605
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:51,920
[audience laughing]

606
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,360
And she's like, "You don't understand.
Our audience is huge

607
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,560
and they're gonna sympathise."

608
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,920
I'm like, "My audience is small,
but they're going to empathise, alright?"

609
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,800
-Sympathy…
-[audience cheering and applauding loudly]

610
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,240
Sympathy is a porn video
that you watch for pleasure.

611
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,040
Empathy is an orgy.
We're all getting fucked together.

612
00:25:08,120 --> 00:25:09,520
[scattered laughter]

613
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,680
Now, listen, about 30% of you
responded to that joke.

614
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:13,920
[scattered laughter]

615
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,000
And I need you to stay back
after the show.

616
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,440
[audience laughing heartily]

617
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:18,600
[chuckles] That was…

618
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:20,120
not a metaphor.

619
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:21,680
[audience chuckles]

620
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,040
"How's the Vir Das show?"
"He does a lot of crowd work.

621
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:27,000
-It's really intense."
-[audience laughing]

622
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,000
I genuinely think
that if you don't put them on the spot,

623
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,640
if you give them a safe space,

624
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,240
if you give them anonymity,

625
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,880
most people will have
an honest conversation.

626
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,880
Tell the truth and they know
right from wrong. Would you agree?

627
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:42,960
Right? I think so.

628
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,160
Let's find out.
Turn the lights out, Shastri.

629
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,600
[scattered chuckles]

630
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,000
Kavi, put the lights out.

631
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,400
[scattered chuckles]

632
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,240
[people whooping and cheering]

633
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,480
[audience continues cheering]

634
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,560
[Vir] Yeah, so the Christmas tree
doesn't go off.

635
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,640
[audience laughing loudly]

636
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,600
I have five electricians on my crew,
nobody could fucking figure this out.

637
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,120
[audience chuckling]

638
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,760
And this Special is gonna come out
in the summer, behenchods!

639
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,800
-So--
-[audience laughing hysterically]

640
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,280
[audience cheering and applauding]

641
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,320
British people, so we be honest
with each other, shall we?

642
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,440
-[man 2 whoops]
-[Vir chuckles]

643
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,840
Every time something happens
in your country,

644
00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:31,080
80% of the world
has zero sympathy for you.

645
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,560
[audience laughing]

646
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,560
[Vir] I'm sorry.
It's just not been long enough.

647
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,120
[audience chuckles]

648
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,600
[Vir] You fucked around
and found out for so long

649
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,440
with so many countries,

650
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,240
and now you have the gall to complain
about too much diversity in England.

651
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:48,880
[scattered laughter]

652
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,200
[Vir] At this point, we don't even want
reparations anymore. Do we, Indian people?

653
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,280
At this point, I don't want your monarch
to return the Kohinoor.

654
00:26:55,360 --> 00:26:56,720
I want him to swallow it.

655
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,520
[audience applauding and cheering]

656
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,960
[cheering continues]

657
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,040
[Vir] Let's see if God
really can save the King.

658
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:11,080
[audience chuckling]

659
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,000
Let's have an honest conversation
right now. Do you wanna try?

660
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,840
[scattered] Yes!

661
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,400
If we are being honest with each other,
you know

662
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,040
that since 2019,
we've all felt monitored and monetised.

663
00:27:22,120 --> 00:27:25,640
That we are fed this story
of good vs evil,

664
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:29,440
but with every passing year
it just makes less and less sense

665
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,680
that we are worshiping false heroes

666
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,440
and celebrating a lack of intelligence

667
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,960
because of a morally bankrupt middle class

668
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,480
that is obsessed with consumption
and a cult of power.

669
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,560
[audience cheering and applauding]

670
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,000
[Vir] Every single Indian person here

671
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,200
knows that since 2019,

672
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:55,480
there has not been a single good
Marvel movie and you know it, all right?

673
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,640
-These are bullshit heroes…
-[audience cheering loudly]

674
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,760
[Vir] …these are false stories.

675
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,000
Wait, what did you guys think
I was talking about?

676
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,280
[audience laughing]

677
00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:08,360
Guys, that's just a joke about the MCU.

678
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaking of which,
right now, nobody can see you.

679
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,320
[scattered laughter]

680
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,920
Nobody. You're safe.

681
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,880
Not the people above you, who ignore you.

682
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,080
Not the people below you, who you ignore.

683
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,640
[audience chuckling]

684
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,200
[Vir] But they can hear you.

685
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,440
Just make the noise
you want to be remembered for.

686
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,280
[subdued laughter]

687
00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:34,400
[audience cheering and applauding loudly]

688
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,240
[cheering and applauding continues]

689
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,600
-[man 4 chants "Ganapati Bappa"]
-[laughs]

690
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,880
[audience laughs]

691
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,160
[Vir] As an outsider,
humbly, I just wanna say,

692
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,800
"I think your empire is ending."

693
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,520
[scattered laughter]

694
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:54,800
[Vir] It feels that way.

695
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,240
On the outside, you're kind of
like the hot girl from high school,

696
00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,680
who's back at the reunion…

697
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,440
[scattered laughter]

698
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,120
…and now she's mad
that everybody else is hot too.

699
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,840
[audience laughing]

700
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,800
[Vir] And China is the principal and…

701
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,160
[audience whooping and cheering]

702
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,520
And I think I know, like,

703
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,040
it's because all the smart people
in your country

704
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,960
behave like such corrupt assholes,
you stop listening to them.

705
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,280
You started listening to stupid people,
who were slightly smarter than you are,

706
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,920
and convinced yourself
that those were the smart people.

707
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,600
And now the entire world kind of looks
at you the way you looked at Joe Biden.

708
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,360
[audience laughing and whooping]

709
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,080
[Vir] It's kind of like,
[drawn-out] "Ooh!"

710
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,960
[audience laughing]

711
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,880
[Vir] "He doesn't know
where he is anymore."

712
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,960
[audience laughing]

713
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,680
[Vir] Let's just stay in this darkness
for a second. [chuckles]

714
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:46,720
[audience laughing]

715
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,200
-[Vir] In case someone has a gun.
-[audience laughing loudly]

716
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,600
[Vir] All right, on the lights!

717
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,760
[audience cheering and applauding loudly]

718
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,080
I don't think America
will ever get rid of guns.

719
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,280
Guns are your cricket.

720
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,920
[audience chuckling]

721
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,760
And I firmly believe that every American

722
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,880
should be allowed to buy a gun
at any age without an ID.

723
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,280
-[scattered laughter]
-Hang on.

724
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,360
But I think you need to change
your gun technology.

725
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,640
I think you need
to voice activate your guns.

726
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,040
Every time you wanna fire a bullet,
the gun will not fire

727
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,320
until you say something completely
and perfectly into the gun in your voice.

728
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,920
And I think what you have to say
is the entire 2nd Amendment.

729
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,680
[audience chuckling]

730
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,120
So, it will change gun violence
forever, man.

731
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,080
Americans will be like,
"I'm a fucking kill you

732
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,240
after I study for two weeks."

733
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,320
[audience laughing]

734
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,480
Two weeks later, he's like,

735
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,120
"In the United States of America…"

736
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,320
[splutters] "…a well-trained militia
for the security of the state,

737
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,880
the right to bear arms
shall never be infringed."

738
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,520
Think about how many people
can run away in that much time.

739
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,560
[audience chuckling]

740
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,520
If you make Apple handle your guns,

741
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,000
you will solve foreign terrorism forever.

742
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:01,920
With Siri?

743
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,400
[audience laughing]

744
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,640
If I show up with my accent…
[in Indian accent] "Siri!"

745
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,080
[audience laughing]

746
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,720
"…a well-trained militia
for the security of the state,

747
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,800
right to buy arms
shall never be infringed."

748
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,840
[in American accent] "There are
five Starbucks in your area."

749
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,920
[audience laughing and applauding]

750
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,000
[audience whooping]

751
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,000
-Oat milk cappuccino! [chuckles]
-[audience laughing]

752
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,400
[in American accent]
"Shoot all Filipinos?"

753
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:26,800
[in Indian accent] "No! Hey!"

754
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,880
[audience laughing]

755
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:31,720
[Vir chuckles]

756
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,200
Guys, it's a tourist visa.
I'm not afraid of you.

757
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,880
-Do you understand?
-[audience chuckling]

758
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,480
[audience applauding and cheering]

759
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,320
[inhales deeply] I'm in therapy.

760
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,280
My therapist is this woman
who holds a cup of chamomile tea

761
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,200
two centimetres away from her face
the entire session

762
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,800
and never fucking sips it.

763
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,080
[audience laughing]

764
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,160
And her taking a sip
is now the only hope I have in therapy.

765
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,360
[audience laughing]

766
00:31:58,440 --> 00:31:59,960
Fucking Jedi! [chuckles]

767
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:01,880
The other day, she's like, "Mr. Das,

768
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,440
a lot of comedians
have cruelty in their childhood.

769
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,840
So their definition of love
becomes withholding."

770
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,520
And I was like, "Did you know
that a lion only fucks for 30 seconds?"

771
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,160
And she's like, "I didn't know."
And I was like, "Good! 'Cause that means

772
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,160
one of us is bringing new information
into this conversation."

773
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,240
[audience laughing]

774
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,520
"Mr. Das, I'm just trying to see
if you have any childhood trauma."

775
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,080
I'm like, "Bitch!
I grew up in India and Africa.

776
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,280
-My trauma has childhood."
-[audience laughing]

777
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:33,520
These are my childhood traumas.

778
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,680
When I was 12 years old,
a bully kicked me in my teeth so hard

779
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,280
I swallowed my own tooth,

780
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,760
and I was hospitalized and made to hydrate
so I would poop out my own tooth,

781
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:43,800
and I never did.

782
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,280
And I'm afraid it's still in there.

783
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,440
And one day, I would get an x-ray,

784
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,000
and in the stomach of an adult male,
they will find a 12-year-old boy's tooth.

785
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,080
[audience laughing]

786
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,320
And they'll be like, "Mr. Das,

787
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,400
what did you have
for breakfast this morning?"

788
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,280
I'll be like, "No, it's childhood trauma."

789
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,600
and they'll be like, "Yeah,
for the child you fuckin' ate."

790
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,160
Listen, my parents knew
about mental health problems,

791
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,800
but they gave me
Indian solutions. [chuckles]

792
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,800
I'll be like, "Papa,
I have crippling anxiety."

793
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,400
'"Huh huh, you do jumping jacks."
-[audience laughing]

794
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:18,880
"Anxiety will jump out of your body.

795
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,040
Then you take turmeric for acid reflux."

796
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,520
[audience chuckling]

797
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,680
Before the stadium show, I tried something
called myofascial release.

798
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:27,640
Has anybody tried it?

799
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:28,880
[scattered] Yeah! Yes!

800
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,160
Let me tell you about this.

801
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,640
I was in Copenhagen,

802
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:36,040
and this muscular 6′ 4″,
beautiful German man

803
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,800
with blonde hair and blue eyes
walked into my hotel room.

804
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,120
I was like, "If there's more of you,
you deserve a Ryke."

805
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,080
[audience chuckling]

806
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,240
And then he took his elbow,

807
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,240
which was the only non-muscular part
of his body,

808
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,200
and shoved into my buttock
and started to move it around.

809
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,720
And he started to stroke my hair.

810
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,840
And he was like, [accented]
"You have a sadness deep inside you."

811
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,680
[in normal voice] And I was like,
"No, I have a German deep inside me."

812
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,760
[audience laughing hysterically]

813
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,960
And he was like,
"Your throat chakra is fully blocked."

814
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:12,240
And I'm like, "That's 'cause you've shoved
my small intestine upwards inside it."

815
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:13,640
[audience laughing]

816
00:34:13,720 --> 00:34:15,640
And he's like, "You must let go."

817
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:18,040
[whimpers] And I was like,
"I feel the same about you."

818
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,080
[audience laughing]

819
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,760
And he was like, "Release! Surrender."

820
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,600
And I surrendered to these beautiful,
strong German arms.

821
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,200
I felt like France.

822
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,280
[audience cheering]

823
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:32,560
And then, New York… [chuckles]

824
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,320
I had this beautiful emotional release.

825
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,640
It was just shattering. I…

826
00:34:38,720 --> 00:34:41,080
I didn't cry. I farted for 42 seconds.

827
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,000
[audience chuckling]

828
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,520
-And then his throat chakra was blocked.
-[audience chuckling]

829
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,760
There's just coriander everywhere
in the room.

830
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,920
-[chuckles] I was mortified, right?
-[audience chuckles]

831
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:58,080
So I did the one thing every Indian does
when we're embarrassed abroad, right?

832
00:34:58,720 --> 00:35:01,920
-I was like, "Sir, I'm from Pakistan."
-[audience chuckling and cheering]

833
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,000
[audience applauding]

834
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,200
-[loudly] It's fine!
-[audience laughing and cheering]

835
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,320
Can I tell you why I went to therapy?

836
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,160
-[scattered] Yeah.
-So I left and I did 186 shows abroad.

837
00:35:14,240 --> 00:35:15,360
Burnt myself out.

838
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,320
My final show was in Singapore.

839
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:18,880
I was flying home, first class.

840
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,240
-And…
-[audience laughing]

841
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,160
I woke up, the pursur was there
and I was like,

842
00:35:23,240 --> 00:35:25,560
"How long till we land in Mumbai?"

843
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,360
And he was like,
"Oh, Mr. Das, this flight is to London.

844
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,440
It's 10 hours to LHR."

845
00:35:33,240 --> 00:35:34,360
Fuck you!

846
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,520
"Not London, Mumbai."
[loudly] "We are flying to Mumbai!"

847
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,360
He's like, "Mr. Das,
calm down right now."

848
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,320
Because you know,
when a brown man with a beard

849
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,680
starts yelling
a new destination for the plane…

850
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,120
[audience laughing and applauding]

851
00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:50,880
[Vir] He was like, "Situation! Situation!"

852
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:53,640
[chuckles]

853
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:58,000
I had put a show on sale
in London last minute. It had sold out.

854
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,560
Right? I had bought a ticket,
boarded a flight.

855
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,200
Seventy-two hours of my life blacked out.

856
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,080
Just gone.

857
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,840
And then I got disoriented,
and I started to cry

858
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,160
in first class.

859
00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:11,720
[audience chuckling]

860
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:12,840
It's tragic, guys.

861
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,480
I cried and I drank
Dom Pérignon champagne,

862
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,640
and then…

863
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,720
Then I whimpered and I put caviar
on melba toast. [chomps noisily]

864
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,160
[audience laughing]

865
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:27,000
I cried all the way to England,
wishing I was India.

866
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,800
I felt like Lady Mountbatten.

867
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,880
[audience laughing]

868
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,040
A lot of you did not get that joke.

869
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,840
[audience chuckling]

870
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,720
Shall I explain? I'll explain, all right.

871
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,920
-So guys, caviar is fish eggs. Uh…
-[audience laughing loudly]

872
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,080
[audience applauding]

873
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,880
-Study your own history, behenchod!
-[audience chuckling]

874
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,960
All right. Sorry, white people…

875
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,360
-Uh…
-[audience laughing]

876
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,000
-Behenchod, uh…
-[audience laughing]

877
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,160
When you're happy, behenchod is kind of
what the N-word is amongst black people.

878
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,880
Right? Fair? Say, "What up, behenchod?"

879
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,720
"Hey! He's my behenchod, right?"

880
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,440
But when you're unhappy, behenchod
is like the N-word amongst white people.

881
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,520
[audience laughing]

882
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,200
-Look at that, behenchod. Uh…
-[audience laughing]

883
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,440
And I went to my therapist, and I'm like,
"I'm blocking out entire days."

884
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:15,960
[splutters] "Am I crazy?"

885
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,200
And she's like, "Mr. Das, it's 2024.
We don't use that word anymore."

886
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,080
I'm like, "I don't use dental floss.
That doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

887
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:23,680
[audience laughing]

888
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,440
She's like, "Mr. Das, you have a problem
sitting quietly with your emotions.

889
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,280
Have you ever been quiet
and happy at the same time?

890
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,800
Why don't you tell me a story?" [chuckles]

891
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,080
I'm like, "I cannot believe
I'm paying for storytelling."

892
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,160
[audience laughing]

893
00:37:37,240 --> 00:37:41,040
And then I paid her the money to tell her
the story I just charged you for.

894
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,840
[audience laughing]

895
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,400
This fuck all business model.

896
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,680
Two weeks before the stadium show I broke.

897
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:47,760
[muttering indistinctly]

898
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:48,840
You just cry.

899
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,920
And the thought that breaks you is…

900
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:53,680
I'm a storyteller.

901
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,160
What if I don't get to…

902
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,280
Or what if I do and it's not as…

903
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,200
You just cry silently.

904
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,720
Which looks pathetic on a man.
It looks like an orgasm on mute.

905
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:06,920
[audience chuckles]

906
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,880
[audience laughing loudly]

907
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,960
It's the noise that lets you know
which one it is, guys.

908
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,040
[scattered laughter]

909
00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:20,000
I was like, "I know you can't hear me,
but can you see me?"

910
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:21,800
When I was 24 years old,

911
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,320
I was an illegal immigrant in Chicago.

912
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:25,640
I'd overstayed my visa.

913
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:27,880
I worked in a kitchen with Mexican cooks.

914
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,000
Brutal people!

915
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,560
They called me, "Los plastos Kollega."

916
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,680
Sometimes, I'd sleep on the train.

917
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,400
My working hours were 8 a.m. to 3 a.m.
and you'd freeze.

918
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,440
And this guy called Sirquet
taught me this trick.

919
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,040
He's like, "Hey, Kollega, come here!"

920
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,200
[speaks Mexican]

921
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,360
[in English] If your nipples are warm,
your body will be warm.

922
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,960
Then he put hot soup
from the restaurant into ziplock bags,

923
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,640
put every ziplock bag
into a black garbage bag,

924
00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:56,280
tied them together behind my neck

925
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,280
so that the soup hung over here.

926
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,960
I wore a jacket and I was insulated
and warm all night long.

927
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,720
Everybody left me alone on the train

928
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,360
because I was a brown man
with gigantic tits.

929
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,800
[audience laughing]

930
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,320
And you know, this was a couple of years
before the trans conversation. [chuckles]

931
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,240
But a couple of years after 9/11.

932
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,880
So, you know, even the Mexicans were like,

933
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,320
"Maybe kollega…"
[drawn-out] "…terrorista."

934
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,840
"Maybe… " [speaks Mexican]

935
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,920
[audience chuckles]

936
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,400
[n English] "Really massive,
tasty black tits."

937
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,120
-And…
-[audience laughing]

938
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,040
Some nights you wake up on the train, man.

939
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,400
It's fucking beautiful. It is.

940
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:35,440
You know.

941
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,520
You've got Coldplay in your ears,

942
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:39,680
warm soup on your nipples.

943
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,440
[subdued laughter]

944
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:42,840
Your head's on the window.

945
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,120
You come out of a tunnel…

946
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,720
you feel sunlight on your cheeks,
they get warm.

947
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,280
Your eyes go into this
non-religious shade of orange…

948
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,480
[audience laughing and applauding]

949
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,880
…and there's golden light on your face.

950
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,040
You feel seen.

951
00:40:09,720 --> 00:40:11,640
And you can't move because there's a…

952
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,280
massive homeless man
sleeping on top of you.

953
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,360
[audience laughing]

954
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:21,000
Now, Indian women, some of you know this…

955
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,920
[audience laughing]

956
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:27,560
[breathlessly] …having been compressed
under a heavyset man.

957
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,920
Don't look at him, eyes front, eyes front.
Look at me right now.

958
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,240
The only thing
that will move that man is food, right?

959
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,080
So, I put this man in the window seat.

960
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:37,280
His name was Eugène.

961
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,080
I fucking put him under the sun,
and I pulled out soup.

962
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,920
-[audience laughing]
-He laughed his ass off.

963
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,320
He was like, "Hey man,
what else you got in them titties?"

964
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,640
-[audience laughing]
-[Vir chuckles]

965
00:40:47,720 --> 00:40:50,240
-And I was like, "More soup."
-[audience laughing]

966
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:51,840
And then his friends surrounded me.

967
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,920
Like five black guys.
I gave them all soup.

968
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,240
And they all called me "a little soup
titty N-word" for five hours.

969
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,800
"Hey, man, look at
this soup titty N-word."

970
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:03,320
I have had Shah Rukh Khan tell me
he was proud of me.

971
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,560
I've had a woman call me
the love of her life.

972
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,120
Nothing comes close to five black guys
calling you the N-word.

973
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:10,560
[audience laughing and whooping]

974
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,800
It's also the most maternal
I've ever felt in my life.

975
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,920
You know, to pull your tit out
and nourish somebody.

976
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,720
[audience laughing]

977
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,720
-Ladies, I get why you do it. [chuckles]
-[scattered laughter]

978
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,600
And I told this story to my therapist,

979
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,200
and my therapist was like, "Mr. Das,
that was not a quiet story at all,

980
00:41:27,720 --> 00:41:29,440
and they're happier than you are,"
and I'm like, "Madam,

981
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,840
you don't understand
what I fucking do, do you?"

982
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,920
Look, happiness watched
is greater than happiness lived, alright?

983
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,280
Do you know what every crowd
has in common?

984
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,560
They look different. They sound the same.

985
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,280
Because happiness is a universal noise.

986
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,400
A human being is just a noise.

987
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,320
We die when we're silent.

988
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,920
If I could take every audience member
and put them in a suitcase,

989
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,480
and put them up on stage with me
and take them around the world,

990
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,280
so that they see it like I see it,

991
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,960
and feel it like I feel it, you would
understand why people like stand-up.

992
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:04,120
Nobody is watching the comedian.
They're listening to the audience,

993
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:05,640
to happiness leave their body.

994
00:42:05,720 --> 00:42:07,840
Because happiness, when yelled,

995
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:12,360
Joy, when not protected,
but joy projected is hope.

996
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:13,760
It is strength.

997
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,840
People with power understand that.

998
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,800
The scariest thing to them is
not the words that come out of my mouth,

999
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:21,880
it is the noise that comes out of theirs.

1000
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,640
Comedians just say words,
the audience tells the truth.

1001
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,480
And this is what I don't understand.

1002
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,440
Why is no one arresting the audience?

1003
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,760
[audience laughing and applauding]

1004
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:37,240
[audience cheering]

1005
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:41,920
They are the problem.

1006
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,200
Look at them. They're so stupid.

1007
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:46,280
[audience chuckles]

1008
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,080
So easily motivated
by some eloquent flattery. [chuckles]

1009
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,600
And my therapist was like, "Mr. Das,

1010
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,160
you have an aggressive
dis-associative disorder.

1011
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,960
that is motivated by extreme PTSD."

1012
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,600
And I was like, "You have
passive-aggressive tongue twisters

1013
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,680
that are motivated by chamomile tea."

1014
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,720
[audience laughing]

1015
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,160
She's like, "Mr. Das,
your anxiety is out of control.

1016
00:43:06,240 --> 00:43:07,800
I need to put you on medication.

1017
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,560
What're your thoughts on beta-blockers?"

1018
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,200
And I was like, "I believe
in a woman's right to choose."

1019
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,640
[audience laughing]

1020
00:43:14,720 --> 00:43:16,960
That joke gets better
if you think about it in Hindi.

1021
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,080
[audience laughing]

1022
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,760
"Also, I have an addictive personality.
I'm not gonna take pills."

1023
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,800
She's like, "All right. Then you need
to work out seven days a week.

1024
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,560
The endorphins will carry you
through your depression."

1025
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,560
-"So I should do jumping jacks."
-[audience laughing]

1026
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:34,880
[audience cheering and applauding]

1027
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,320
She's like, "No, also take turmeric
for acid reflux." [chuckles]

1028
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:42,920
[audience laughing]

1029
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,480
Ladies and gentlemen…

1030
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,080
We're on a train.

1031
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,040
That's all this life is.
It's a train in a fucking circle.

1032
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,280
And one step on that train,
one stop is unhappiness

1033
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,520
and utter despair and sorrow
and an ass whooping.

1034
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,160
Whether you're quiet
or whether you're happy,

1035
00:44:01,240 --> 00:44:04,080
or whether you're careful
or whether you're reckless,

1036
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,720
the train will stop at that station
once in your life, I promise you.

1037
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,760
Stick your tits out
and share your soup, all right?

1038
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,320
That's all I'm gonna say.

1039
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,800
You could play
every card in the book right

1040
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,680
and one day, for no reason,
your voice will just [snaps fingers]

1041
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:17,840
go the fuck away.

1042
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,960
And then, one day,
for no reason, it will… [snaps fingers]

1043
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:25,120
Ten days before my stadium show,
something freed.

1044
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,400
I don't know why this happened.

1045
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,400
[splutters] But… [sighs]

1046
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,200
Do you know what I think freedom is?

1047
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:36,160
When you're not constantly thinking about
whether you can speak,

1048
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:37,720
you can speak.

1049
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,080
Like, my voice came back
not for doctors, or for healers.

1050
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,120
It came back for a food delivery guy.

1051
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,320
[scattered laughter]

1052
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:47,880
[audience chuckles]

1053
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:49,360
He handed me a package of food,

1054
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,160
and instinctively, without thinking,
I was like, "Thank you, bhaisaab."

1055
00:44:53,240 --> 00:44:55,080
[audience laughing]

1056
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:56,200
It just came out.

1057
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,880
And I… I just fucking…
I held him, and I… I wept.

1058
00:44:59,960 --> 00:45:02,880
For 20 minutes straight,
I just wept in his arms.

1059
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,760
And he was like, "You're very passionate
about kung pao chicken."

1060
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:07,840
[audience laughing]

1061
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,720
And I was like, "Your back is very tight.
You have a sadness deep inside."

1062
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,800
[audience laughing]

1063
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:20,160
Don't think about what you say,
and it will get you into trouble.

1064
00:45:20,240 --> 00:45:22,640
And when you're in trouble,
do not think about what you say,

1065
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:24,160
and it will get you out of trouble.

1066
00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:26,560
Here are three quick stories
to end my show that prove that.

1067
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:27,480
Are you ready?

1068
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:28,400
[indistinct chatter]

1069
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,040
Number one. I was 18 years old
in the city of New Delhi

1070
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,480
on the back of a motorcycle.

1071
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:36,080
My friend Shusheel is driving us home
from a Delhi party at a farmhouse

1072
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,120
where we have both dropped acid.

1073
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,920
If you've ever driven in Delhi at night,
you know this,

1074
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,480
you do not need the acid.

1075
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,760
[audience laughing]

1076
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,120
There are preexisting illusions
like safety.

1077
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,080
[audience laughing]

1078
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:50,600
We get up to a red light.

1079
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,400
While we're getting up to the red light,
a cat crosses the road.

1080
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,000
It fucks with my brain.

1081
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:56,240
All of a sudden, at the red light,

1082
00:45:56,320 --> 00:46:00,280
I see standing a 20-foot-tall pussycat
with one eye.

1083
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,960
And there was light
shooting out of the cat's eye.

1084
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,440
And the cat was morphing
and dancing and changing

1085
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,320
and as we got closer,
the cat morphed into a Delhi policeman…

1086
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,960
[audience laughing]

1087
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,360
…with a torch in his hand.

1088
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,800
The Delhi police will shine a torch
in your eyes, we know this.

1089
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,160
They're like, "On the off chance
you haven't had an accident yet…"

1090
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:23,200
-[mimics taunting laughter]
-[audience laughing]

1091
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,320
We get up to this policeman,
who is 6'4", a sardar,

1092
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,880
and I swear to God,
his name was Hunta Singh.

1093
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,400
[audience laughing]

1094
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,040
And as we start to flee,
he tries to flag us down.

1095
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,360
I'm told, 18-years old, high on acid,
I make direct eye contact and go…

1096
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:40,680
[meows shrilly]

1097
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,760
[audience laughing]

1098
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,440
If you think running away
from a Delhi policeman pisses them off,

1099
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:50,680
try meowing at them.

1100
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,080
[audience laughing]

1101
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:53,320
They go insane.

1102
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,440
He followed us for 3 kilometres.

1103
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,880
We get to another red light,
and I still do not know why

1104
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,840
this is when my bastard friend
starts following traffic laws.

1105
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,840
[audience laughing]

1106
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,000
He stops.

1107
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,560
Hunta Singh got off
and beat me with my helmet on.

1108
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,120
It still hurt.
I was like, "What is this helmet for?"

1109
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,560
Then he beat me with my helmet,

1110
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,640
and I understood what the helmet was for.

1111
00:47:15,240 --> 00:47:17,160
Then he started hitting me
with his torch,

1112
00:47:17,240 --> 00:47:20,320
which I thought was a magical light
and kept catching with my face…

1113
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:21,560
[audience laughing]

1114
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:22,760
…to taste his rainbow.

1115
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,160
[scattered laughter]

1116
00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:27,720
[chuckles] Then, he looked at my friend,
and he was like, "Show me your license."

1117
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,400
And my friend Susheel pulled out
a learner's license.

1118
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:31,640
[audience laughing]

1119
00:47:31,720 --> 00:47:35,040
I don't mean to stop the show,
but does that… does that joke work here?

1120
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,040
Yeah, let me explain,

1121
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,400
So, uh, guys, in India,

1122
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,880
on a learner's license,
you're not allowed to do acid.

1123
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,360
[audience laughing loudly]

1124
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,480
Same? I see this license
go past my face

1125
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,760
and it's got like colours
and an aura and energy.

1126
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,040
I have an idea!

1127
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,120
I also pull out my learner's license.

1128
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:57,640
[audience laughing]

1129
00:47:57,720 --> 00:47:59,360
I'm like, "Inspector Hunta Singh,

1130
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:01,520
if we combine…"

1131
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,480
[audience laughing loudly and applauding]

1132
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,240
"…the power of two learner's licenses…"

1133
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:10,160
[audience chuckles]

1134
00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:12,000
"…they will become a full license, sir.

1135
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,800
Which is like saying,
if two college kids fuck each other,

1136
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:16,280
they will become a professor, sir."

1137
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:17,680
[audience laughing]

1138
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:21,040
And he laughed so much,
he let me go.

1139
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,120
-[audience laughing]
-Second story.

1140
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:24,680
I was 35 years old.

1141
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,720
I was in a nightclub in Mumbai.

1142
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,640
Thirty-five is old enough to know
how absurd the Indian fighting ritual is.

1143
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,000
I bumped up against this alpha male
when I was dancing, right?

1144
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:36,040
Bro got angry.

1145
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,240
He was like, [loudly] "Bro! Are you okay?"

1146
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,160
[scattered laughter]

1147
00:48:40,240 --> 00:48:42,040
I was really smashed.

1148
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,120
I was like, "Yeah, it's really soft."

1149
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:46,680
Bro went insane.

1150
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,120
He was like, "Fucker!
Meet me outside after this song."

1151
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,200
[audience laughing]

1152
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:55,240
After this song? Then…

1153
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,920
Then for four minutes,
we just awkwardly danced…

1154
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,360
[audience laughing]

1155
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:00,880
…while making eye contact

1156
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:03,200
until "Tunak Tunak Tuun" finished,

1157
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,240
which is the longest song in the world.

1158
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:07,560
Legit, yo.

1159
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,600
This is one out of five choruses
of Daler Mehndi's masterpiece.

1175
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,160
Think about the emotional journey
we just went through right now.

1176
00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:52,720
So they don't fight first.

1177
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,800
First, they will stand around in a circle

1178
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,760
and tell you how many people
in your family they will fuck.

1179
00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:58,840
[audience chuckling]

1180
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,960
[in Hindi] I'll fuck your mother,
your sister, your brother.

1181
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,560
[in English] I will fuck
your mother, father, gardener,

1182
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:06,000
your executive assistant.

1183
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,920
-I'm like, "Am I needed for this?"
-[audience laughing]

1184
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:12,960
"You have a concrete plan, bro!"

1185
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:14,400
[audience laughing and cheering]

1186
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:15,760
"I feel like…" [chuckles]

1187
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,240
"I feel like we're just gathering
to abuse a family."

1188
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:21,400
The fight began, right?

1189
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:22,920
Fucking, I thought I'd land a punch.

1190
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,600
This Punjabi guy stuck his chest
against my chest

1191
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:28,000
and started rubbing his chest
against my chest.

1192
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:29,920
I was like, "Sir!"

1193
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:31,400
[audience laughing]

1194
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:33,680
My nipples do not know the difference

1195
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,720
between sensual friction
and aggressive friction.

1196
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,400
He got both of them equally perky
like a cathode-anode situation.

1197
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,040
[audience laughing]

1198
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,120
Then he stuck his fucking face to my face.

1199
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,360
His pupil touched my pupil,

1200
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:49,200
and he saw my memories, all right?

1201
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,000
He was like,
"Is there a tooth in your stomach?"

1202
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:53,560
[audience laughing]

1203
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,960
[applauding and cheering continues]

1204
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:57,160
[Vir speaks indistinctly]

1205
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,480
Then he fucking started breathing
hot air into my mouth.

1206
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,880
[mimics rhythmic breathing]
I started breathing hot air into his,

1207
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,480
just becoming the thing I despise,

1208
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,720
which is how I feel
about elections in India.

1209
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,800
Then he was like, [in Hindi]
"What will you do? Will you do something?

1210
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,280
Do it, fucker! I want you to do it!"

1211
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,680
[in English] Which translates to,
"Do it! I want you to do it!

1212
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,680
Please do it. Do something.
Do it! Do it now!"

1213
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,880
[scattered laughter]

1214
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:23,160
So I licked his ear.

1215
00:51:23,240 --> 00:51:25,240
[audience laughing]

1216
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,840
It was right there. [chuckles]

1217
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,040
I was like, "This is not confrontation.
This is consent." [slurps noisily]

1218
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,480
Oh, don't you judge my palate, all right?

1219
00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,840
You have Bombay sandwiches from Mithibai.
That's ball-scratching bread, all right?

1220
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:39,920
[audience cheering and applauding]

1221
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,360
And a wave of confusion
went over that man's face.

1222
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,920
You just saw him realise, "I don't know
if we are fucking or fighting!"

1223
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,000
Which is how I feel
about elections in India.

1224
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:52,560
[audience laughing]

1225
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,440
And he went to his friends and he's like,
[in Hindi] "But he is that."

1226
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:56,800
[audience chuckling]

1227
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,200
[in English] Translation,
"But he is that."

1228
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,720
You've ever been so confused,
your grammar deserts your homophobia?

1229
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,000
And then we didn't even fight.

1230
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,480
We just went inside
and danced for four more hours.

1231
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,840
-[audience cheering]
-Fuck me.

1232
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,280
I just wanna take you in. There are
four minutes left in the show right now.

1233
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:16,160
You know, I…

1234
00:52:16,240 --> 00:52:18,240
I came to Mumbai with a suitcase

1235
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,640
and no contacts,
no money, no comedy scene,

1236
00:52:21,720 --> 00:52:24,920
-and there's a stadium here today.
-[audience cheering loudly]

1237
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:28,040
[cheering continues]

1238
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:29,120
And then,

1239
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:31,000
you have a voice again.

1240
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,960
-[man 5 whoops]
-I did both shows.

1241
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,200
Right before the show,
you're standing backstage at a church,

1242
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,720
you're putting your foot up
on the stadium and

1243
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:42,000
your voice is different.

1244
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:47,240
And when I say your voice is different,
I mean your voice is different.

1245
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,920
Six weeks ago, I didn't know
if I was gonna be here on stage.

1246
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,840
-This is insane, you know the--
-[audience cheering]

1247
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,000
I was watching that… you know,
you remember Freddie Mercury in Live Aid,

1248
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,880
where he had no voice and he's like…
[mimics high-pitched vocalization]

1249
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,200
-[audience mimics Vir's vocalizing]
-Oh shit! [chuckles]

1250
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:08,920
[audience laughing]

1251
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:10,880
It's not the same.

1252
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:17,760
And there's this whole other Special
that Netflix paid you lot of money to do,

1253
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,720
where you thought about everything
that you wanted to say,

1254
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:25,080
and you just don't
feel like thinking that much.

1255
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:27,080
All you can think is just…

1256

00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,520

-[audience chuckles]
-[chortles]

1265
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,200
I was accused of stealing a joke
from myself.

1266
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,360
[audience chuckles]
This is very confusing.

1267
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,080
I wrote two shows about India,

1268
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,880
and they both had one common topic
with different jokes.

1269
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:10,000
Right? So I had to go and explain
joke structure to the Mumbai police.

1270
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,880
Which I'm about to explain to you now.
Are you ready, yeah?

1271
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,320
Mumbai, every joke has three parts.

1272
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,000
Number one,
undeniable factual information.

1273
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,000
Number two, a premise.
Number three, a punchline. Observe.

1274
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:23,520
Undeniable factual information.

1275
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,320
Not all nipples are the same size.

1276
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:28,760
Right? Here's a premise.

1277
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,720
My nipples are like India and Pakistan.

1278
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:34,280
Punchline.

1279
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,480
They used to be a lot close,
but over the years, they just grew apart.

1280
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,040
It's an okay joke. I'm just illustrating…

1281
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:42,600
By the way, any Pakistani people here?

1282
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:43,720
[scattered responses] Yes!

1283
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,080
Listen, I love you guys.
You're always welcome in my show, alright?

1284
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,200
Don't put this on social media.

1285
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,240
[audience chuckling]

1286
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:56,040
[chuckles] What's your name,
buddy from Pakistan?

1287
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:57,040
[man 4] Shehzaad.

1288
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,160
Shehzaad, I do believe that one day
our countries will be friends.

1289
00:55:00,240 --> 00:55:01,960
I do believe that. Genuinely. Yeah.

1290
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,560
-Uh--
-[audience cheering and applauding]

1291
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:05,640
I don't know. I just…

[applauding continues]

1293
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,640
We just gotta find
some common… enemy.

[audience laughing]

1295
00:55:14,240 --> 00:55:16,240
Let's go blow up
the Maldives together, huh?

[audience chuckles]

1297
00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:18,520
Fuck the Maldives.

1298
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,160
Fucking, both our navies together,
Shehzaad. Let's do it, alright?

1299
00:55:21,240 --> 00:55:23,520
Sixty-five of our ships,
two of your jet skis…

[audience laughing]

1301
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:33,600
Even Shehzaad is like,
"Two jet skis, huh?"

00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:35,440
[audience laughing]

1303
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:36,600
[chuckles] The point…

1304
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,680
The point I'm trying to make is
in a different joke,

1305
00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:40,160
part one never changes.

1306
00:55:40,240 --> 00:55:41,960
Observe, Mumbai, here's a different joke.

1307
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,520
Undeniable factual information,
"Not all nipples…"

1308
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:46,880
[audience] "…are the same."

1309
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,680
Here's a different premise.
My nipples are like politics in India.

1310
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,040
-Punchline. [chuckles]
-[audience chuckles]

1311
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,680
For as long as I can remember,

1312
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,760
the right is way more sensitive.

1313
00:55:58,840 --> 00:55:59,720
[audience chuckling]

1314
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:01,840
-Now, that--
-[audience cheering and applauding]

1315
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,440
[cheering and applauding continues]

1316
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,720
That joke is very easy to explain
to a comedy crowd in a stadium.

1317
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,800
Very tough to explain to the Mumbai police
at 8 o'clock in the morning.

1318
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,240
My lawyer and I
are getting our files together

1319
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:19,240
in front of this Mumbai policeman
called Inspector Tapse.

1320
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,000
He wants to get our attention.
He's like, "Hey!"

1321
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,880
-[smacks lips lewdly]
-[audience laughing]

1322
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:29,400
Immediately, every molecule
in my body just goes, "Daddy!"

1323
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,520
[audience laughing]

1324
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:34,000
And he looks at me
and he's like, "These jokes you do…

1325
00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:35,680
Are they funny?"

1326
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:39,800
[audience laughing]

1327
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,880
-[sighs softly]
-[scattered chuckles]

1328
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,720
"Inspector Tapse, it's like,
not all nipples…" I do the entire routine.

1329
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:52,600
I look at my lawyer who looks like
she wants to quit the profession of law

1330
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,160
because her client is pinching his nipples
in a police station.

1331
00:56:56,240 --> 00:56:57,200
Zero response.

1332
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,200
Now, when a joke's not going well,
a comedian turns the gun on themselves.

1333
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:01,600
That's how you get the crowd.

1334
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:05,640
[splutters] So I'm like, "Inspector Tapse,
why am I actually going to jail for jokes?

1335
00:57:05,720 --> 00:57:08,480
Please just give me two months
to commit a real crime."

1336
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:10,480
[audience laughing]

1337
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,160
"And grow a real beard
because I am too tiny

1338
00:57:13,240 --> 00:57:14,640
and too pretty for jail, sir.

1339
00:57:14,720 --> 00:57:16,480
I will be humped in 15 minutes."

1340
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:17,840
[audience laughing]
