Very sad to hear about Irrfan Khan .
May his work always be remembered and his soul rest in peace 🙏🏽 #IrrfanKhan— Sunny Deol (@iamsunnydeol) April 29, 2020
The first shot that I witnessed as an asst. director was of Irfan khan . Calm , poised and so naturalistic , unlike anything i had seen before.A casual intensity that no other actor could pull off. Thank you Irfan for inspiring us. You will live on in our hearts forever.
