Exclusive: Irrfan Khan's last film's release still in the dark, director says decision yet to be made

After battling with a rare form of cancer for two years, actor Irrfan Khan left for his heavenly abode yesterday morning, leaving his dear ones, colleagues and fans mourning the massive loss. Irrfan was last seen in Homi Adajania's Angrezi Medium, a film we all looked forward to, after the significant success of his 2017 film Hindi Medium. However, as the theatres were shut owing to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the film only had a brief run in the cinemas.

Exclusive: Irrfan Khan's last film's release still in the dark, director says decision yet to be made

Fans might seek a little solace in the fact that an unreleased film of the actor is yet to hit the theatres, although one does not know when that will happen. Apno Se Bewafai, a film that is awaiting a release since the past two years, was slated to come out on April 2nd, but could not. We reached out to director Prakash Bhalekar, who seemed to be in the dark as well. "We don't have an idea yet. I guess the lock-down in Maharashtra is going to be extended till 18th May. Maybe after that. We will have some information by the 4th or 5th of May," he said.

Angrezi Medium is now streaming on an OTT platform. Are there chances that his last film will have a digital release too? "Yes, they've given it (Angrezi Medium). However, we are yet to decide on that," he answered.

Here's hoping we get to see Irrfan on the big screen, one last time!

23 Years of Lagaan: “A famous painter heard 'O Paalanhaare' and told me, ‘Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist aisa bhajan nahin likh sakta’” - Javed Akhtar

One of the greatest films of all time, Lagaan (2001), completed 23 years on June 15. Starring Aamir Khan and Gracy Singh, it was a fictional period drama about a group of villagers learning cricket, a game alien to them, and playing it against the British. In the pre-climax, when the villagers fear defeat, they collectively pray to God. This is when 'O Paalanhaare' is played and it leaves viewers teary-eyed. The song took a life of its own and is one of the most loved film devotional songs of all time. Many are surprised to know that Javed Akhtar, an atheist, penned this track. At a show ‘Main Koi Aisa Geet Gaaon’, the legendary songwriter opened up about this song and confessed that he got this surprising reaction often. He also revealed how he responds to such comments in his trademark humourous style. Javed Akhtar said, “A famous painter, Chanda, called me and said, ‘Javed, tum apne aap ko atheist kehte ho. Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist...
