Not only just movies. Irrfan Khan also did one great DD serial Kirdaar directed by Gulzar sahab. He appeared with Om Puri sahab in many episodes. The brilliance they showed together. Irrfan kahn lost his mother just 3 days ago. Now he is no more. This is Tragic. #IrrfanKhan

A part of cinema has died today, because we have been deprived of many more years and roles of this gentle genius. We know that God takes the best human beings early, but He could have left him for all of us. (When you looked at Irrfan's face you knew that he was a good human being. There was an aura about him). I hope he is with his mother. That thought is the only consolation. My love to his family.
