“He was porous. He wanted to get everything just right. We were both committed to keeping that sense of ‘bizarreness’ of America alive in the film,” Nair said.

The mood and tone of the scene echoed one from the original film, bringing back the bittersweet memories of Irrfan Khan’s presence, and his absence now felt deeply by everyone involved.
Siddiqui, who himself is known for his powerful performances, expressed his sadness over how the industry failed to give such monumental talents the platform they deserved.
“Like anyone else, Babil is allowed to have difficult days – and this was one of them,” the statement read. “We want to reassure all his well-wishers that he is safe."
Pooja Bhatt took to Instagram to share a heartfelt note for Irrfan, reminiscing about their 2005 film 'Rog', which was penned by her father, Mahesh Bhatt.
He is also a critics' favourite and was awarded the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian honour, for his contribution to the field of arts in 2011.
