At 1:30pm, as VIRUS walked on to the stage of the banquet hall a select crowd of about 150 people stood up, clapped, cheered and applauded this multi talented personality. Mr. Irani began by few instances to connect with the crowd and swiftly moved on to a PowerPoint presentation through which he took the entire Young India down the memory lane into his childhood, his failures, his supports, his small joys and how he ultimately turned into a waiter, photographer, ran a food shop and finally how he could make it to theatre and then into films.
