Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 29 : Filmmaker Subhash Ghai recently took a trip down memory lane as he remembered the late actor Irrfan Khan.
Ghai shared an old photo from an award ceremony with the actor, along with an emotional note that quickly caught the attention of fans online.
In the photo, Ghai and Irrfan can be seen smiling. Ghai, who worked with Irrfan in the film 'Right Yaa Wrong,' took to his Instagram account to share a post praising him not just as an actor but as someone who deeply understood the art of storytelling.
He wrote, "I have always been more in admiration of good and great actors than just cosmetic stars of any time. Good actors enhance storytelling--stars play stars to glitter the film. I was more happy to receive compliments from Irrfan than an award at an award function. So, I remember this picture vividly. We miss you, Irrfan."
