Mohar Basu (MID-DAY; November 30, 2018)

Following Hasmukh, which marks Vir Das’s first attempt at writing in the Hindi language, the actor- comedian is set to bring forth a series of seven other ventures. Among the projects in the pipeline is yet an offering for children, and a buddy-cop film.

Das tells mid-day of his projects, which have been penned by him and his team, “Writing has been something I have always been involved in. Yet, doing so for shows varies greatly from writing for a series or movie. We have been working on several concepts. Apart from Hasmukh, a children’s dramedy is being conceptualised. There’s a dire need of content for the children of India.”

Pointing out that his other productions may even deviate from the genre that made him the brand he is — comedy — he says, “We are trying to diversify the genres and cater to people across age groups.”
