Paulo Coehlo made a tweet which read,

“A star joins other stars in the sky. Thank you for everything, Irrfan Khan

‘D*ath is as sure for that which is born, as birth is for that which is de*d. Therefore grieve not for what is inevitable.’

― Bhagavad Gita”

I’m devastated by the news that the legend, Irrfan Khan, passed away at the age of 53. He was my favorite actor. Irrfan’s performances were defined by his subtlety and sensitivity, he could do more with silence and many actors could do with a two page Sorkin monologue. You watched him onscreen and thought “I know that person!” in any role he played, even if he was being chased around Europe in a Da Vinci Code movie with @tomhanks. He once wrote me to see if we could collaborate on something, and it remains the greatest honor of my career. If you aren’t familiar with his work, please watch Mira Nair’s The Namesake, or Ritesh Batra’s The Lunchbox. You will become a lifelong fan, I promise. I feel robbed of his future performances. My heart goes out to his family.

Colin Trevorrow, the director of “Jurassic Park” also remembered the “Haasil” actor and called him a thoughtful person. His tweet read, “Deeply sad to have lost #IrrfanKhan. A thoughtful man who found beauty in the world around him, even in pain. In our last correspondence, he asked me to remember ‘the wonderful aspects of our existence’ in the darkest of days. Here he is, laughing.”

Kal Penn who worked with Irrfan in “The Namesake” tweeted, “Irrfan’s art and humanity will be badly missed. Never seen someone use the beats of silence so beautifully to convey so much about who we are. Sending love to Sutapa and the family.”

Irrfan Khan was also remembered by Academy and Golden Globes as they shared an image of Irrfan to pay tribute to him.

Irrfan will surely be missed by his fans and admirers but it’s also true that he will live in our hearts forever!
