<p>‘Shrikant’ was the first time Irrfan Khan made an appearance in front of the camera. It was directed by Pravin Nischol and was based on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyaya's novel Srikanta.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The series also featured some other big names like Farooq Shaikh, Sujata Mehta, Mrinal Kulkarni, Sukanya Kulkarni, Tiku Talsania, Asha Sharma in pivotal roles.</p>

<p>The show ran between 1985 and 1986, but made very little impact then. It was only later that the show was helmed as a classic.</p>

They played father and son in Mira Nair's 'The Namesake' and on Wednesday as the news of Irrfan Khan's death broke, Indian-American actor Kal Penn paid rich tribute to his onscreen father and co-actor. Kal shared photos from 'The Namesake' and wrote, "Irrfan’s art and humanity will be badly missed. Never seen someone use the beats of silence so beautifully to convey so much about who we are. Sending love to Sutapa and the family." View this post on Instagram Irrfan’s art and humanity will be badly missed. Never seen someone use the beats of silence so beautifully to convey so much about who we are. Sending love to Sutapa and the family. #IrrfanKhan A post shared by Kal Penn (@kalpenn) on Apr 29, 2020 at 5:53am PDT × Irrfan and Kal had played Ashoke and Gogol Ganguly in Mira Nair's adaptation of Jhumpa Lahiri's book by the same name. The film also starred Tabu as Irrfan's wife and the film is considered a classic. Penn was not the only India-American artist to pay his tribute on Wednesday. Irrfan had featured in numerous Hollywood films and artists like Riz Ahmed, Mindy Kailing, Freida Pinto and Kunal Nayyar paid tributes to the late actor. View this post on Instagram This one has hit me hard. A VOID that can NEVER be filled because there was simply no one like Irrfan Khan. His grace and dignity along with his monumental talent as an artist, actor - a portrayer of humanity in all it's shapes and forms made me not only have deep admiration for him but I instinctively wanted to emulate that grace in my career as well. . . There is a picture from the SAG awards( Irrfan, Dev, me and Anil) that sits on my book shelf in Mumbai and everytime I look at it, I am taken down a memory lane of all things so beautiful and joyous about Slumdog Millionaire and the awards celebrations. And in all of it I have this one beautiful and powerful memory of Irrfan - Unfazed by the glitzy glamour, no matter which Hollywood icon walked past us. Quiet but not silent- his responses to every interviewer were so meaningful and never lacking humour. He was representing India with achingly high levels of grace and dignity. He stood grounded in reality on every world stage, every red carpet- Grateful and so collected! How lucky was I, a complete little mess of a newbie, to have him as a role model! . . For those who know of his talent, you know it cannot be replaced. For those who have not yet been introduced to his talent...Oh, do not deprive yourselves please! His repertoire has something for everyone. Warrior, Namesake, Piku, Maqbool, Life of Pi, The Lunchbox, Paan Singh Tomar and ofcourse Slumdog Millionaire. Start somewhere, anywhere! I promise you...Irrfan Khan will be FOREVER carved in your memories too! A post shared by Freida Pinto (@freidapinto) on Apr 29, 2020 at 8:28am PDT × View this post on Instagram I’m devastated by the news that the legend, Irrfan Khan, passed away at the age of 53. He was my favorite actor. Irrfan’s performances were defined by his subtlety and sensitivity, he could do more with silence and many actors could do with a two page Sorkin monologue. You watched him onscreen and thought “I know that person!” in any role he played, even if he was being chased around Europe in a Da Vinci Code movie with @tomhanks. He once wrote me to see if we could collaborate on something, and it remains the greatest honor of my career. If you aren’t familiar with his work, please watch Mira Nair’s The Namesake, or Ritesh Batra’s The Lunchbox. You will become a lifelong fan, I promise. I feel robbed of his future performances. My heart goes out to his family. A post shared by Mindy Kaling (@mindykaling) on Apr 29, 2020 at 8:24am PDT × View this post on Instagram Dear Irrfan, you had a way with your eyes that reached out of the screen and lit a fire in my soul. I have waited all day to find the words, but there are none. And there are none still. When I sit down to think, I find my heart in a million little pieces. I always dreamt of sharing the screen with you, and now I’ll have to wait till this dance of mine is over... Light up the heavens while you’re up there Sir, the world needs you, and we are not ready to say goodbye. With all the pieces of my heart, I love you. A post shared by Kunal Nayyar (@kunalkarmanayyar) on Apr 29, 2020 at 6:42pm PDT × Natalie Portman and The Academy too honoured the late actor with a post on Twitter. A mainstay of Bollywood cinema and incredible talent in films like “Slumdog Millionaire,” “Life of Pi” and “The Namesake,” Irrfan Khan left his imprint on global cinema. An inspiration to millions, he will be greatly missed. pic.twitter.com/o21DMMC2o5 — The Academy (@TheAcademy) April 29, 2020 × Irrfan died on Wednesday in Mumbai after a prolonged battle with cancer. The actor is survived by his wife Sutapa and sons Babil and Ayan.

<p>It's a terrible time for Indian cinema with two extremely popular actors who died in a gap of a mere 24 hours. Both Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor lost their battle to cancer and died a day apart.<br />
<br />
Now, post their death, a clip featuring the two actors in Nikhil Advani's 'D-Day' is doing the rounds of the internet. The small clip has Irrfan and Rishi sitting next to each other in a car with Irrfan suddenly turning towards Kapoor and breaking into a smile. The clip has been shared numerous times by people on social media. Even Kapoor's niece, actress Karisma Kapoor too has shared the clip on Instagram.</p>

Post Irrfan and Rishi Kapoor's death, this video from 'D-Day' is going viral

<p>Malayalam star Fahadh Faasil says though he never met Irrfan Khan in his life, the actor was one of the reasons why he joined cinema.<br />
<br />
The National Award-winning actor released a statement in the wake of Irrfan's death from a rare form of cancer on Wednesday.<br />
<br />
Faasil recalled that when he was a student in America, he came across Irrfan's 2006 film "Yun Hota To Kya Hota".<br />
<br />
"The first thing I noticed was that the film was directed by Naseerudin Shah...That night, few minutes into the film, when the character Salim Rajabali came on screen, I turned to Nikunj (his friend) and asked 'who is this guy?'.<br />
<br />
"I mean, there are actors who are intense, who are stylish and who are charming. In all honesty, this was the first time I ever saw an actor who was ORIGINAL on screen. And his name was IRRFAN KHAN," Faasil said in the statement.<br />
<br />
The actor said he became an even bigger fan of Irrfan after watching his performance in Mira Nair's "The Namesake".<br />
"Irfan Khan's growth was like a popular song. Every one was singing it and feeling it. I kept watching his films. I used to get carried away so much that most of the time I lost narratives of the films.<br />
<br />
"Or it was more like I didn't care about the narrative as long as he was performing. He made acting look so easy and I was fooled," Faasil added.<br />
<br />
He said Irrfan was one of the reasons why he decided to drop out of engineering and become an actor.<br />
<br />
"I have been acting or trying to for the last 10 years.. I have never met Inrfan Khan. For that matter I haven't even seen him. But I was fortunate enough to have collaborated with actors and filmmakers who have worked with him. The first thing I spoke to Mr. Vishal Bharadwaj when I met him was about 'Maqbool'," Faasil said.<br />
<br />
The actor, however, has a deep regret of never being able to meet the prolific actor, even when Irrfan shot for his 2018 movie "Karwaan" in Kerala.<br />
<br />
"Even when my dear friend Dulquer was shooting with Irrfan in our home town couldn't meet him as I was going through a hectic schedule myself. I had no reason to believe why I had to rush. Today, I regret not shaking hands with-him. I should have just gone to Bombay and met him," Faasil said.<br />
<br />
The actor said the country has lost an "impeccable artiste" with Irrfan's demise and he has left a deep vacuum in the cinema community.<br />
<br />
"We just didn't have enough of him. Today, when my wife barged into the room and broke the news to me, I will be lying if I say I was shocked, because I continued doing what I was doing.<br />
<br />
"The entire day went by today and I could not stop thinking about him. I feel obliged to him. I feel like I owe my career to him. I don't think I would have ever come this far if I had not picked up that DVD and watched an actor who changed my life," Faasil concluded his statement.</p>

Malayalam star Fahadh Faasil on Irrfan Khan: I owe him my career

<p>"I suppose in the end, the whole of life becomes an act of letting go, but what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye"-&nbsp; 'Life Of Pi'</p>

<p>This has been one of my all-time favourite quotes. But on Wednesday, after spending nearly 14 hours at work, writing about <a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/irrfan-khan-7-january-1967-29-april-2020-life-in-pictures-295519">Irrfan Khan</a> and stories related to him, the heart still refuses to move on or bid this silent acting giant a goodbye.</p>

<p>For journalists, writing or reporting death is not new. And we are adept at writing about death without getting too involved emotionally with the stories. That's after all our jobs and we have the ability to move on to the next breaking story. But it's different in this case.</p>

<p>Why does his loss seem so personal? I know I am not the only one who feels like that. I have had friends, colleagues, and even family calling and messaging me throughout the day expressing shock over the news. For every single person, it seems like they have lost someone of their own. I scroll through numerous posts on social media and all I see is people writing about how Irrfan's death has affected them at a personal level even though most of them have never met him. Perhaps that's the sign of a true star. A man who can make every character relatable. That's what Irrfan was. He was a relatable man despite scaling international heights. One of those rare actors who shared screen space with a Tom Hanks and a Bobby Deol.... You see the range?<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/irrfan-khan-1967-2020-the-man-who-spoke-a-thousand-words-through-his-eyes-295531"><strong>Also Read: The man who spoke a thousand words through his eyes</strong></a></p>

<p>From being the endearing Bengali professor in 'The Namesake' to the annoying obnoxious Monty in 'Life In A Metro', Irrfan had played characters that you and I knew in person and the actor left a distinct impression in each of them. He was the common man who gave hope to millions. He was the actor who spoke for us, told our stories to the world. Looking at him one felt if he could, so could we. Above all, he was one of the most humble stars around.</p>

<p>I had the opportunity of interviewing him twice. The first time was in 2012, I was still a rookie and very nervous about covering events. It was the Osian film festival at Delhi's Siri Fort auditorium. I was standing outside one of the smaller audis, waiting for Irrfan to come and start the press interaction.</p>

<p>He came, dressed in a white shirt and green pants. I remember the colour clearly. I froze because to enter the audi he would have to cross me. He looked at me, probably sensing my nervousness, gave that famous smile of his, and said 'come inside?' or some such thing. I was so nervous I mumbled something and scurried inside to join the rest of the waiting media. An awkward moment to recall or talk about but I distinctly remember that warm smile. The smile that reached out to nervous rookie reporters, a smile that made the audience love him in each of his roles and the same smile that will remain etched in our hearts forever.</p>

<p>The second time was over a video chat-a format that was still new at that time. The Internet kept disconnecting on his and my side at regular intervals but the man never lost his patience or say that 'let's cancel it'. He sat through the hiccups and smiled as we apologised constantly.</p>

<p>While editing copies on Wednesday, I realised that no matter how much you write about this genius, it's not enough. How to compress three decades of his illustrious career in few paragraphs? How does one put it in writing the way he connected with his audience, or how he made his roles in the most ordinary, underwhelming films memorable. How to write about this powerhouse of talent?<br />
<br />
Over the years, I have to admit that the fascination of movies has worn off a bit. It doesn't seem as magical as it used to be in my days as a student. I honestly feel that most actors are replaceable. Every actor can do the other actors part. But no one can bring what Irrfan did to his characters. No one will ever be able to. I missed him when he took a break in 2018 for cancer treatment and I will continue missing him as long as I watch films. And that's why maybe, it feels personal. Because who will make us believe in dreams, in the magic of showbiz as subtly as Irrfan did?</p>

<p>This has got to be the biggest loss for our generation. And it will remain personal. For all of us.<br />

<p>Directed by Ang Lee and also starring Tabu, Adil Hussain and Suraj Sharma as the younger Pi, the film was just one of the many Hollywood films that the actor starred in. It received four Oscars, and grossed over $600 million worldwide.<br />
<br />
While speaking about the film, in an interview, the actor had said, "In an interview, Irrfan had spoken warmly about working with Lee. “I’m really fortunate that I got to work with Ang Lee. He is a wonderful filmmaker. It is fascinating as an actor to find a director who effectively has a whole world inside of him. Ang has a strong vision and he wants to bring that world and that vision to the audience. There are very few directors who put themselves in the line of fire as he does.”</p>

Trevorrow directed Irrfan in 'Jurassic World' and recalled one of the conversations he had with the actor. Deeply sad to have lost #IrrfanKhan. A thoughtful man who found beauty in the world around him, even in pain. In our last correspondence, he asked me to remember “the wonderful aspects of our existence” in the darkest of days. Here he is, laughing. pic.twitter.com/8eAsSOO9Ie — Colin Trevorrow (@colintrevorrow) April 29, 2020 × DuVernay wrote about watching the actor on screen and appreciating his work as a fan.

A true artist who spanned Bollywood and Hollywood and was acclaimed in both. His words in a letter to a newspaper about his illness are a reminder of his beautiful mind and of life’s fragility.

From Chandrakanta to Kahkashan: A look at Irrfan Khan's memorable work on television

<p>Soon after the news of Irrfan Khan's hospitalisation came to light on Tuesday, rumours started doing the rounds in a section of the media that claimed that the actor had passed away. An official statement from the actor's spokesperson has quashed those rumours calling them 'extreme assumption'.<br />
<br />
The statement came at 1 am on Wednesday where the spokesperson said, "It`s really disappointing to know that there are extreme assumptions being made about Irrfan`s health. While we are truly appreciative that people are concerned, it`s disheartening to see some sources spread extreme rumours and creating panic. Irrfan is a strong person and is still fighting the battle. We really request you to not fall for rumours and not partake in these conversations which are fictional. We have always actively clarified and shared updates on his health and we will continue doing so."</p>

<p>The actor<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/irrfan-khans-health-deteriorates-admitted-in-a-hospital-in-mumbai-295344"> had to be admitted to the Intensive Care Unit</a> at Mumbai`s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani hospital with a colon infection&nbsp; on Tuesday.</p>

<p>"Yes, it is true that Irrfan khan is admitted to ICU at Kokilaben in Mumbai because of a colon infection. We would keep everyone updated. He is under doctor`s observation. His strength and courage have helped him battle and fight so far and we are sure with his tremendous willpower and prayers of all his well wishers, he will recover soon," said the earlier report issued on behalf of Irrfan by his spokesperson.</p>

<p>The actor has been ailing ever since he was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumour in 2018, and has been under medical attention for the same.</p>

<p>Irrfan is currently mourning the loss of his mother. The actor`s mother Saeeda Begum breathed her last on Saturday in Jaipur where she used to stay. However, owing to the ongoing lockdown, the actor could not physically attend his mother`s last rites and reportedly paid his last respect through video conferencing.</p>

<p>Irrfan was last seen in Homi Adajania's 'Angrezi Medium' which was the last Bollywood film to release in India before theatres across the country were shut down due to outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.</p>

Irrfan was last seen in Homi Adajania's 'Angrezi Medium' which was the last Bollywood film to release in India before theatres across the country were shut down due to outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.

<p>An official statement released by his family said, "I trust, I have surrendered”; These were the some of the many words that Irrfan expressed in a heartfelt note he wrote in 2018 opening up about his fight with cancer. And a man of few words and an actor of silent expressions with his deep eyes and his memorable actions on screen. It’s saddening that this day, we have to bring forward the news of him passing away. Irrfan was a strong soul, someone who fought till the very end and always inspired everyone who came close to him.

Irrfan Khan dies at the age of 53

<p>One of the finest and versatile actors, Irrfan Khan, on Wednesday breathed his last at the age of 53 in Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital, where he was admitted on Tuesday and was being treated for a colon infection. The sudden loss of Irrfan leaves a huge void in the world of cinema as he was regarded as one of the finest gems not only in India but around the world. While many are aware of Irrfan Khan's splendid work in movies, not many know that he wanted to become a professional cricketer and it was due to lack of just Rs 600 that he failed to pursue a career out of it.&nbsp;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Irrfan was selected for CK Nayudu Trophy – one of the coveted domestic tournaments in India – but as he didn’t have Rs 600 to pay his entry fee at that time, he decided not to pursue it further. Irrfan, in 2014, had admitted about his love for cricket while revealing his sister gave him Rs 300 to get admission in the National School of Drama.&nbsp;</p>

I was selected for the CK Nayudu tournament I think and then I needed money and didn’t know who to ask. That day I decided I cannot pursue it. I couldn’t have asked for Rs 600 at that time,” Irrfan had said in an interview to a leading daily in 2014.</p>

<p>“I needed Rs 300 for National School of Drama, which was difficult for me. My sister finally got it for me,” he revealed.</p>

<p>Irrfan had even compared the movie and cricket industries as the versatile actor stated that the entertainment industry provides a longer career than in cricket. Irrfan had further slammed the T20 version of cricket for spoiling the gentlemen’s game.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Giving up cricket was a conscious decision. There are only 11 players in the whole country. Actors mein koi limit nahin hai! There is no age limit in acting… jitna mehnat karoge....You yourself are your own weapon,” he said.</p>

<p>An official statement released by his family said, "I trust, I have surrendered”; These were the some of the many words that Irrfan expressed in a heartfelt note he wrote in 2018 opening up about his fight with cancer.

It’s saddening that this day, we have to bring forward the news of him passing away.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Irrfan was a strong soul, someone who fought till the very end and always inspired everyone who came close to him. After having been struck by lightning in 2018 with the news of a rare cancer, he took life soon after as it came and he fought the many battles that came with it. Surrounded by his love, his family for whom he most cared about, he left for heaven abode, leaving behind truly a legacy of his own. We all pray and hope that he is at peace.

A source close to the actor says that he wants to spend the summer with family in the British Capital exploring nooks and alleys of the city like locals. “Both of his sons insisted on spending more time in the UK. It’s vacation time for both his sons, so Irrfan is keen to expose both Babil and Ayan to the theatre culture of the city. It’s the season for the best plays to be screened and the actor thinks it will be a good experience for both of them to broaden their horizons beyond movies and understand art more holistically. The family will stay through the month will return to Mumbai in the second half of August.” Irrfan's 'Angrezi Medium' is scheduled to release in April 2020.
