Python - join two columns and transform it as index

df = DataFrame({'var_1':['a','b','c'], 'var_2':[1, 2, 3], 'var_3':['apple', 'banana', 'pear']})
cols = ['var_1', 'var_2']    # Set columns to combine
df['combined'] = df[cols].apply(lambda row: ', '.join(row.values.astype(str)), axis=1)

# Define which column is index
df_i = df.set_index('combined') 

# Set the index to None
