Irrfan Says He Wasn't Sure He'd Be Able To Shoot Angrezi Medium Due To Extreme Weather, Reveals What Made It Easier

Angrezi Medium is all set to release in theatres soon and we are no doubt missing the man of the hour Irrfan Khan during the promotions of the film. Irrfan has been recuperating post his cancer treatment but is still working behind the scenes to do all he can to support his movie.

The actor got candid about his feelings towards the film and the cast and crew and told Hindustan Times that he isn’t nervous about it but grateful that they have been able to make a happy film. “To be honest, all my anxiety has been exhausted with the roller-coaster ride of this disease.”

Irrfan told Mid-Day that he wasn’t too sure he’d be able to pull off the project owing to his ill health and the extreme temperatures they had to shoot in. Grateful to Angrezi Medium the actor said, “When your life experience changes so drastically, the actor is bound to change, too. Actors get their stimuli from their personal life. I will be indebted to this film’s crew all my life. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to shoot in such extreme weather, but Anil Mehta [cinematographer] made it easier. Perhaps, I have become more sensitive because I noticed even the smallest of gestures of those around.”

Bollywood is sending across all the love for Irrfan’s film in his absence and in all his conversations the actor has been grateful for all the love and prayers. Angrezi Medium releases in theatres on 13 March and also stars Kareena Kapoor, Radhika Madan and Deepak Dobriyal.
