Mumbai: Stand-up comedian and actor, Vir Das hosted the International Emmy Awards 2024 and stunned everyone with his style statement.
He is the first Indian to have hosted this prestigious event. For the mega event, he wore formal attire designed by the fashion label Salooka by Shubangi Bajpai. His black attire seemed to be a perfect blend of East and West, which included a blazer, an embroidered white kurta, and flared trousers.
Das decided on his outfit earlier and he updated his fans in his post on his Instagram handle ahead of the award ceremony that he would be wearing a “brand new designer” for the Emmys.
“As promised. I will be wearing a brand new designer for the Emmys. As promised, I know nothing about fashion. But she does and she worked super hard. Her name is Shubhangi Bajpai and she is from Delhi. Happy to show you her work soon. Do keep in mind, she doesn’t have much to work with here,” he wrote in his post.
In September, taking to his Instagram account, Vir Das shared his excitement for hosting the award ceremony, as he wrote, “Thanks to your support, an Indian Emmy Host I can’t wait to host the @iemmys this year! Crazy. Thank you for having me. Tremendously honoured and excited!
Das was earlier nominated for an Emmy in 2021 for his special Vir Das: For India and won in 2023 for his Netflix special Landing. The comedian is currently on his international Mind Fool tour.
