Known for his unique choice of films, Irrfan Khan is one of India’s most acclaimed actors but what sets him apart is his quality to remain loyal and committed to his work. This was proven when Irrfan turned down a prestigious Hollywood project for director Shoojit Sircar ’s upcoming comedy drama Piku—a move the actor absolutely doesn’t regret!We hear that the talented actor turned down a role in Ridley Scott 's The Martian, co-starring Matt Damon as he had already blocked his dates for the shoot of Piku . Always known to be a thorough professional, Irrfan refused the Hollywood project as it would have required him to cancel his shoot for Piku, which the actor didn't want to do.In an interview to a tabloid, Irrfan Khan was quoted as saying, “It was a lengthy, pivotal role (Ridely Scott’s ‘ The Martian’) but I had already committed the dates to Shoojit Sircar for Piku”.Even though Piku is centered around a quirky father-daughter relationship between Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone, Irrfan plays a very pivotal role in the film. Reacting to his maiden on-screen pairing with Deepika, something that has become one of the most anticipated unconventional pairings in recent times, Irrfan reveals just what kind of equation his character shares with Piku, “It's about two people who never imagine they'll fall in love but are drawn to each other. Sometimes they feel the pull, sometimes they don't. The emotions are delicate... madhur...natural.”
