Watch the video here:Finally happened. Got stopped on the street in New York. pic.twitter.com/5uO3Owgr4I— Vir Das (@thevirdas) July 21, 2025Talking about his day, he says, "I do Poha work in the morning and stand-up at night. Sometimes, if I'm hungry, I do Poha at night too. I think Americans are ready for Poha."When asked for advice, Vir hilariously says, "Don't do anything on an empty stomach. To be a good comedian, your brain should work, and for that, you need carbs - like Poha. And always put yourself into your art. Feed your art like you're feeding your family."He ends the video by saying in Hindi, "Isko pata nahi hai Poha kya hai, please Poha khao and mera samaan dekhlo. (He doesn't even know what Poha is, please eat Poha and check out my work.)"Fans loved the video. One wrote, "Nice reel buddy, innovative script," while another said, "Guy promoted Poha better than all of Pune!"
Vir Das, known for films like 'Delhi Belly', 'Go Goa Gone', and 'Namastey London', is back with his unique brand of comedy. His stand-up special 'Fool Volume' is currently streaming on Netflix.- EndsTrending Reel

Six years after the tragic passing of actor Cameron Boyce, Adam Sandler has paid quiet tribute to his former co-star in his latest film, 'Happy Gilmore 2', which released on July 25. The heartfelt nod was spotted by fans who noticed Boyce briefly appearing on a television screen in the background of a scene set at a check-in booth. The fleeting clip, believed to be footage from Boyce's Disney Channel show 'Jessie', appears to be a subtle homage to the young actor, who played Sandler's son in the 'Grown Ups' franchise. Although not publicly announced or confirmed by the production team, the moment did not go unnoticed by fans. Social media was quick to react, with one user posting: 'Adam Sandler subtly including Cameron Boyce in this scene from #HappyGilmore2 hits different (sic).'

Sandler, then 52, shared a moving tribute on X (formerly Twitter), describing Boyce as 'Too young. Too sweet. Too funny… Just the nicest, most talented, and most decent kid around (sic).'
