Comedian Vir Das is set to star in a new series titled Country Eastern, which tells the story of a young and wealthy man from India, who moves to Memphis, Tennessee in the US to restart his life and pursue his passion of becoming a country music singer.

The only issue is that he doesn’t have the knack for it. Talking about the series, Das said, “It’s an exciting new project that is in the works and I’m happy to announce that the series is now being developed. I’m excited to collaborate with such talented names, each of whom have an envious body of work. It’s a unique comedy.” Das is set to co-write and executive produce the show with Sam Laybourne.
