MUMBAI: Irrfan Khan’s tragic demise sent a shockwave in the entire film industry. The actor died at the age of 53 on 29th April 2020 after battling cancer for two years. Recently, actress Saba Qamar who has worked with Irrfan in Hindi Medium, remembered the late actor and regretted not keeping in touch with him.
Recalling her shoot days with Irrfan, Saba shared that she did not rehearse a single scene for the film. “I remember a day before we were going to start shooting for the film in Delhi, we did a few lines with the cast and the crew but didn’t really rehearse-rehearse. That was something new for me, and was a different kind of experience. So that is the thing that I have learnt from Irrfan sir that you don’t need to rehearse much.”
The Mrs & Mr Shameem actress also regretted not being in touch with Irrfan Khan. She stated, “After the film when his health deteriorated, I kept thinking that I will call him but I was busy with shooting and travelling so I couldn’t. Then one day I heard about him and I was devastated and shattered. That day I realised that one should avail the time they have, because that time never comes back. If you want to apologise to someone or express your love then just do it. So I have that regret that I wish I had called him, spoken to him, and would have been in contact,”
