Vir Das: Landing (2022 TV Special)
7/10
Pretty good for Indians and non-Indians alike
31 December 2022
Never heard of the guy but was influenced to watch due to the high ratings, which are deserved IMHO! Most of his act revolves around his observations of the American culture where he was raised, but felt like an outsider. Likewise, he felt estranged from Indian culture because he was too Westernized. Lots of material for immigrant-type humor, which I love, as a 2nd-generation native.

Apparently he's had some recent controversy, which he refers to also, including death-threats and being accused of being a traitor. He plays upon this several times.

There is some sexual banter and cursing, though he doesn't stress or depend on it for shock value.

I look forward to watching his other special.
