PM Modi To Sachin, Big B To Akshay, This Is How Celebs Mourned The Loss Of A Gem – Irrfan Khan
The year 2020 has turned out to be a nightmare as the whole world has been adversely affected by the coronavirus pandemic and in this time of crisis, India has lost one of the most precious gems of the acting world.
The International actor Irrfan Khan breathed his last today due to a prolonged illness; he was just 53 years of age and one of the finest actors of the film world. Irrfan Khan who hails from Jaipur, Rajasthan, made his debut in Bollywood with a small role in “Salaam Bombay” in 1988. He also worked in some TV serials but became a known face after he got the chance to work in 2001 released British movie “The Warrior”. Some of his great acting performances were seen in flicks such as “Haasil”, “Maqbool”, “The Namesake”, “The Lunchbox”, etc.
Irrfan got National Award for the Best Actor for his acting in “Paan Singh Tomar” and he was last seen in “Angrezi Medium”. He was one of the most versatile actors of the present times and was a master in getting into the skin of the character. While he showed his comical side in “Piku”, we saw him playing a no-nuisance CBI officer’s role in “Talvar” while in “Hindi Medium”, he played the character of a guy who was desi from heart but tried to portray himself as a sophisticated person.
Irrfan has been so impeccable in his acting performances that it is not possible to miss any of his movies; in fact he was one of those rare actors who knew how to make their presence felt even in a very small role.
Bollywood celebs, sportspersons, politicians and movie lovers have been left in a state of shock and dismay and many celebrities took to social media to express their sorrow and condolences to the family. Here are some of the mourning tweets from the renowned personalities on the iconic actor’s sudden departure.

Kartik Aaryan
My first ever acting was in a workshop for my first film where all I had to do was try to recreate a scene of Irrfan sir from Maqbool. And I failed. I keep trying that scene often. And I fail.
First face that comes to mind when we think Actor.

I asked Mr tarik Fateh while he claims to be a free thinker he has spent 10 years in a regressive and fundamentalist country like Saudi Arabia with out compromising his conscience and principles . – no answer .
— Javed Akhtar (@Javedakhtarjadu) April 29, 2020
What made everyone sadder is the fact that Irffan lost his mother just 3 days ago and it must be very tough time for the family.
Rest in peace Irrfan Khan! We will miss you a lot and your loss is irreparable!
