“Netflix and I were about to shoot a special with a different theme. The universe had other plans. I lost my voice two months before that show. This is a show rewritten in silence and performed without rehearsal across the world. Turns out the voice in your head is way crazier than the one in your throat. A special that asks the important question—how much happiness do you share when it comes back? What does it mean for any of us to really use our voice?” Vir Das recalled. The special marks Vir Das’ fifth stand-up special for the streamer. Meanwhile, Vir in March announced his memoir, The Outsider—A Memoir for Misfits.
