Renowned comedian and actor Vir Das added another feather to his cap by clinching an International Emmy for his Netflix stand-up comedy special, Vir Das: Landing in 2023. However, his recent encounter with a bizarre incident left him shaken. While at an eco resort for a shoot, Das found himself in a precarious situation when a snake unexpectedly plummeted from the ceiling as he entered the bathroom to relieve himself. Sharing the unnerving experience on social media, Das humorously recounted the snake’s unexpected descent right beside the toilet tank, leading him to declare that he might never pee again with such trepidation.
Vir Das has showcased his versatile talent not only in stand-up comedy but also in various movies, including notable titles like Namastey London, Badmaash Company, Go Goa Gone, Shaadi Ke Side Effects, Love Aaj Kal, and Shivaay. His recent appearance in the American film, The Bubble, released in 2022, saw him portraying the character of Ronjon alongside a star-studded cast featuring Karen Gillan, Pedro Pascal, and others.
At an eco resort for the night because we’re shooting nearby. Needed to take a piss. Opened up the bathroom door, stood over the pot, junk out, and before I began…a snake fell from the ceiling directly on to the water tank near the flush handle. Yup. Never peeing again 👍 pic.twitter.com/OnqX05HJPj
