Big million day for Vir Das

Darpan News Desk IANS, 21 Jan, 2017 03:48 PM
  • Big million day for Vir Das
In 2014, actor-comedian Vir Das had set his sights on completing the millionth ticket for his show -- and he's glad it's a target achieved.
 
On January 14, he marked the 100th show of his stand-up comedy show "History of India" in Singapore, which also sold his 1 millionth ticket. 
 
Talking about it, Vir said in a statement: "In November 2014, I completed half a million tickets. That was a big achievement for me. I set my sights on a million.
 
"I thought it would take three years or more to sell a million because I was going to have to do it mostly domestically. Then CAA and Levity signed me.
 
"I ended up doing the largest ever comedy tour in India with the Unbelievable Tour, two Pajama Festivals, toured US, UK, Scotland, a nationwide Alien Chutney tour and recently did the On The Pot tour. It came full circle at the Esplanade Theatre in Singapore. I sold my millionth ticket. And I hit my target a year ahead of time."
