- The speech I gave when I got an honorary doctorate this week. I was told to address the Knox College graduating class of 2018. I don't have much wisdom, so I told the kids to 'Be Stupid'.

This Speech wouldn't have been allowed in any Indian college as it would've been "inappropriate for students"
You know it very well!
@@novice8329 i wish Indian "people" were more open minded..

Not really

The best thing was the old guy laughing at Vir's stupidity heartily throughout the speech! :-D
Nikitasha Chatterjee I too observed that, haha
He kinda looks like Stan lee
The funny thing was......the "Stan Lee" guy in virs right was continuously laughing and "Steve jobs" guy in his left was never laughing
He was really putting "Be Stupid" in practice.

Which one?

Yours hungrily :D

Started to worry, if he is a comedian or a life motivator.
All good comedians are just philosophers.
#Mirasolov Klose Totally agreed bro
What's to worry about?!?! The world would be that much better if he chose both lol
Why can he be both?
@@Amixan0402 why can't he be?
He really does prove it, laughter is courage. Who can talk shit about sex in a graduation speech?! RESPECT, IDK if everybody enjoyed it but I did.
I felt really weird hearing that like i was there.
And the "tent" one also
"Never underestimate the power of a pelvic thrust in a public place."
So underatted.
I’m getting ready for the sexual assault accusations already
it'll get u that tasty prison food
Bro I read this exactly as he said it.
Perfect...🙌🤘

*Don't pollute your moments
The irony of it all is that he has to travel to the West to make his thoughts known as we all know that if he tried this at home he would have been either shut down or dismissed as a buffoon. Its time we learnt to make fun of ourselves. Its not that we as Indians have any reputation to uphold by being uptight and serious all the time because seriously our reputation worldwide isn't that great anyway!!
I so thank you for saying this,I believe many think the same and afraid to speak up and that's how screwed we're in India
that was brutally honest xDD
Damn straight
Yep.
Being damn honest!!!
You had me in the first half hahaha
Vir Das for Prime Minister
Wtf.. By this rate we should be changing PMs every week as some video goes viral
that would be a stupid thing. Let's do it
U r being stupid 😂
OK Dick shit.
It need extra craziness
Why am I watching this at midnight just before the first day of my school?
Life changing advice though
cause ur stupid.
I have public exams tomorrow...i'm "stupider"
And I thought you're only seen on blumaan's channel.
I don't know who you are and I don't know where you live but if I told you that I'm also watching this video at 2 something at night the day before I start at a new school would you believe me?
same here
"How much a leader sticks around you, is no longer a testament to his abilities, it's a testament of your tolerance. That's how long a leader stays." Apt in today's World.
When comedy is not just unabashed, bold and hilarious, it's so profound, it's a whole new perspective shift in its own self. Man, I've never felt so much moved by someone who doesn't really take life seriously but yet cherishes it everyday. Kudos, my man. You make a loser like me feel like I got superpowers and shit and hey, don't mind the company 😉
Trueeee
This video *knoxed* me out. You're stupid and so we are & you're a beautiful thinker and 🔊 speaker. Love you man.
My god man you took his advice immediately. Write better jokes next time.
Sanjib Saikia booooo
Mokkel
I'm sure he won't read the comments.....😋
he might. he might create a random account and comment and just be stupid. you never know.
;)
good day
How long a leader stays at power is not his ability but your tolerance.
I applaud 👏🏼
Edit : most people wont understand this
Bhakts have made this AN ABILITY 😂
Like Pakistani Imran khan 🤣
Every year I watch this video and I find completely different meanings.
I am growing up and the best part about it is, that I have Vir with me.
Best thing, that old man looks at colleague prof. to see if shez also laughing as hard 😂😂😂😂
Why the hell did this video popped up in my suggestion and why did I listen to this video and I loved every bit of it.
Because we are all stupid on this blessed video.
"Nobody has perfect childhood, remember that, including the kids you are going to have.So forgive your parents and love them" ......💜
May be "I'm your one stupid thing" that's the coolest punch line. Of course the speech is well put, thanks VirDas
"You're never too old to learn a new skill but you're too old to be good at it" RESPECT.
*_"VIR'S WAS BIGGER"_*

As a Slovenian person, it always amazes me when I hear my country mentioned anywhere.

I had my earphones plugged in listening to this while walking at 7am to have breakfast and laughing like a madman. I needed that laugh, thank you.
You're too good and highly underrated here somehow. Glad to know you've made an audience in some part of the world who has the stomach for your wisdom. I play this speech on a quarterly basis as a perspective compass or whenever I need clarity in life. Better than any Ted Talk. Thank you for this.
Same!
Totally agree. I barely know him before this year, and now watching his content makes me feel so good to be a part of the world that has people like him. I absolutely love comedy, and I have watched a lot of stuff online (performed it twice - was very STUPID thing to do, but as he said memorable as well), and so I can say the best stuff is when you are being real and stupid (or really stupid - sorry that was a stupid thing to say).
I come here once every 2-3 months..... AND I LOVE IT!

Beautiful words Brother Das! Such a big fan of your work, and it killed me to miss the reunion with the chapter. I'm following my stupid decisions every day and I hope to get the chance to meet you in person another time. LTH - David, Delta Theta 1247

Hey this morning I had a short and silly fight with my mom and after they fight I was listening to your this speech and heard " no ones childhood is perfect not even your kids are going to have it , so forgive your parents " thank you so much for that bcoz this soughted our fight.
Your are the one who understands our problem and speaks our words. Thank you
"Don't pollute your moments with other peoples option" for those of us over 60, were told this as a child. Glad it's getting a repeat
This is the most IMPERFECTLY PERFECT speech I have ever HEARD ❤️
What a beautiful and uplifting speech. The guy resonates at so many different levels. He has a lot of self confidence and that’s what any successful person needs. Don’t take life too seriously. It only makes you fearful and lack self confidence.
This is the most genuine and the greatest speech I've heard.
Vir you are a magician, please don’t stop your oratory spell 👍🏻👌🏼
This speech is amazing. Just simply amazing. It's wise while being extremely stupid, and It's beautiful.
Vir never diasappoints. NEVER EVER!
I'm 23 I've done most of those stupidity Dr.Vir is speaking about in my life and i really feel stupidly awesome...😄😄😄
Vir Das you are a living legend. I was feeling low since past days, this speech was just what I wanted to hear. Absolutely brilliant. Lots of love!
This is probably the best gig you've ever done so far 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
You know more than anyone,
But
The question is can you DO MORE.
Vir, man you are a really good thinker and speaker.
Appreciate your work, man
Greats manipulate us, in a positive way, uplift our spirit, takes us to a see what Awakening is, our duty to is keep it up. Stay moved all the way till the end, not just for the video. This speach is great.
I wrote speach and no one has corrected me yet. Internet is no to stupid I guess.
The1080pDude Umm this is strange.
This man is dropping pure codifed gold on the audience and all of us. A role model for us all.
i feel like this speech gonna change my life, but it will be a 2 hr motivation, so imma watch this speech again after exams to actually execute it
"Don't pollute your moments with other people's opinions"INDEED

no but seriously, this was one of the best graduation speeches ever.
This is not a graduation speech. He got an honorary doctorate degree.
@@mtsya8983 this was a graduation speech and he was granted the honorary doctorate on the same day :v
The funny thing is that, a talent like Vir Das has always been underappreciated and underrated in his own country where as people from around the world are embarrassing his talent, that shows how much blinded we all are especially The Indian entertainment industry.
What a brilliant speech fresh thought provoking one liners ... I don't think I have heard this level of wisdom in a speech since I have become an addict on UA-cam many years ago.
Mr. Das you are the Idol Youth Icon of India. I admire you sir. 🙏
I love how your comedy doesn't just end in laughs but lessons, clarity and direction for people searching for hope! Don't agree with everything you say, but love and agree what you do!
One of the best graduation speech which i can never get tired of listening to. I come here at least once every 3-4 months
I have seen this probably more than 100 times now. It's 3AM , just rejected by a girl proposing after a month.I don't regret,I watched it again with all laughs and prepared to get rejected again.
#embracingstupidity
This is absolutely magical! I love this so much!
Okay...i am going to do the stupidest thing.....i just came out of self loathing...i listened to it and it Srsly helped with many friends who unknowingly just being their, are doing....i am gonna do stupidest,stupidest things, this video has made me.. realise....ppl don't miss the hardwork long term good..not always but the idiotic actions they did...till now i tried to be...as much as to act more then my age and try to be with everyone...and limit my weirdness becuz it was just too much...and maybe it is(becuz who TF dips oreo in left out cereals milk? This guy 👍👍) so Yeah thank you Alot it's 2:50 am and this is one of the best advice i got...and i am grateful
Dude. You broke my life as a african because it works!!!!!!!!!! Please sir, continue Because you are the MAN the MYTH the legend!!!!!!!!!!!!
The most amazing speech I have ever heard till now. Salute to you Vir Das. You are at another dimension.
Like the wise man said, "You don't regret the things you have done, you regret the things which you didn't do when you had the chance". #BeStupid #RightlySaid
How can you make a speech hilarious, Inspiring, deep and also have quotes that boggle your mind?
"Hey, vir's was bigger" too deep XD
Too deep
Like veer
Thats what she said
First time I heard this speech I was going through my heartbreak back in year 2021 and I cannot tell you how much this helped me. Kinda made me realise how small and stupid the life really is. It helps me realise that life is not as serious as how you think it should be and that not everything is about me. Being stupid and making mistakes is part of life and it might hurt right now but later it will all be stories. So, live it.
I always come back to this when the world feels a little heavy. ❤
Thankyou Vir 😇
You just made my Day !
I was not feeling Good n then I come across this n now it's Like why the Hell was I even sad..
I hv to push through Life!😍😍
Have a wonderful Day Ahead to everyone out there😇😇
NOW I WILL NEVER FEEL HURT IF SOMEONE CALLED ME STUPID AND DUMB. THANKS DR DAS
As a college student who stressed about his work cause he's a procrastinator whilst in an online environment, you just gave me some drive to actually do my work eariler and not procrastinate as much! I have a research paper draft due next friday and a meeting with my professor on Tuesday. I wouldn't have the proper drive to start this today if not for this speech cause now I'm looking at it in a loose, workable way! Stupidity is an amazing right and I will exorcise that right to the best of my ability. Thank you!
"I'm sorry you deserve better"
*No we don't. Please, continue this shit.*
*Funny as life itself.*
The most breathtaking peace of mind-blowing material that I have heard in a long time...
I adore you Vir Das! The Commencement address is not just funny but it's smart..👍😎🙌
Watching Americans laugh at your jokes makes me proud just like watching Indians heading world's biggest companies does. Love you Vir Das :-)
Idk have watched this 50 to 60 times ... Everytime it cheers the life 😂❤️
This is really making an inner child living inside a lot of worn out adults. Be stupid and be proud of it.
This was by far the most inspiring incredible and i really dont have words (because i never used many difficult words) speech i have heard
Its a comedian talking life in the most rawest of the forms possible. Simply great. Cheers.
This is clearly the best speech i ve ever heard..!
and frankly speaking. i ve never been a 'deshbhakt' kind a guy, but this speech coming from an indian guy actually makes me proud.
m actually wondering why vir das is not giving speeches at ' Ted talks'
"This moment does not own you, you own this moment"
Wow
Man this is one of the well written speeches I have ever heard! Thanks a lot for sharing!!💓💓💓
This man dissed the entire college in Front of them...
The entire speech was a thug life moment 🤣😂
Historic ,Hilarious ... saved it and listening repeatedly..
This speech just went back to the past and fixed my rather rough day..
This is Legit one of the best speeches I've heard.
One of the most inspiring speech ..
Kind of getting nostalgic.thinking about the STUPID things I didn't do.
He is so damn wise, hats off to you man one of the best speeches I have ever heard. 😂😂😂👍👍
I've watched this speech over and over again, multitude of times. It just fills me with happiness, laugh and a thought to ponder. Just too good of a writing
Watching this video on repeat, and each time i watch it there's something new for my brain and soul. ❤
This is one of the best witty and life changing speech I have ever heard 😊✨
Be stupid!
This is going to be my wallpaper 😻
"Don't pollute your moment with thoughts of other people."
Idk why but this really made me cry
I love this speech, because a lot of it is true for me. Not related to your college but highly agree with your perspective on life.
Because I too love being stupid just once, very often
