His death feels so personal. He is irreplaceable. He singlehandedly changed Bollywood forever. Long live his memory
Well said. Indeed personal. I feel he is talking to me in this video.
True
It truly is a personal loss. It feels like someone I used to meet at times,as if we smiled to each other, said hello.. I felt similar way when Rituparno Ghosh passed away.. I did not know I loved Irrfan this much.. This proves he was not only a great actor, but also a great person. That's how one can make a stranger cry..
Agreed
Dont fall into formula.true for every field in life just be ur self portrayed so well by irfan
Tom Hanks said 'when Irrfan walks in the room he (Tom) doesn't feel coolest person in the room. Tom Hanks acknowledges bhai's persona
@Patricia Tada Tom has class to admit...

This is first time a celeb's demise had me so heartbroken. He was truly a gem.
#legend
I was heartbroken by Sri Devi few years ago
@@crashpal he was better than shri devi
SAME. Didn't think he would do this to all of us.
Me too
Baidyanath Mishra k
Listen, can we just agree that Irrfan is immortal? His art, what he created will never perish. He is one of a kind and nobody can ever be him.
He is. Instead of mourning over his death let's just celebrate his work and admire the man he was. People like him don't die , they keep themselves alive with their work and by the goodness of their character.
Yeah his legacy will be forever!!
Irrfan, the deadpan king. He jokes without any expressions, even smile. Just one liners, serious sarcasms people laugh out loud. genius
I know right? His comedy/ sarcasm is really genius. He delivers a dialogue n just his eyes or the way he says it can make you laugh.... Awesome
@@dysplasiaanaplasia4128 ya...while watching his movie thank you I felt that ....
Voice.
❤
That's the most real and rare thing about him ,along with his accent. He never changed his personality.
I can't believe he's no more. This void can never be Restored. Rest in peace Irfan Khan. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Just watched angrezi medium
Irfan sir salute you You have beautifully defined the feelings of a father and his love for his child.
😭😭😭
LORD GALACTUS aaaah!
Bc bar bar ek line rest in peace.... Aese bnde marte ni h ye amar h humare dil o dimag m or bhagwan Allah aese logo heaven m jaldi bula lete h... Irrfan sir with us forever
And his last line - be kind to each other-.....
Rest in peace Irfan.
He created some kind of strange bond with his fans , like he did in his films it feels like we lost some part of us.
Yes u r right buddy
true so very true.....
True
I even think I felt his loss more than the loss of most people I knew in life ..no disrespect to them .
Arre bhai aapka look aur eyes Irrfan jaisi hai ,I think .
Just heard news of his passing. So so heartbreaking. He was such an incredible actor and there was no one like him. He will always be remembered. May he Rest In Peace. Such sad news
Yeah came to UA-cam to watch his interview, already started missing him ☹️☹️☹️
Same here dude. This is so heartbreaking.
I love him
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Amit ji, Shahrukh sir, Amir sir, Akshay sir are actors... Irrfan bhai is masterpiece 'Aritst'... I've watched old movies, Hollywood movies and regional cinema, haven't seen artist like Irrfan bhai... you'll be missed bhai. 😞
for sure! for me the next on the list is aamir khan sir. He is a brilliant actor as well. I see him as a true artist too. ❤️✊🏼
They are just human being don't call them sir.Only irfan can be called sir
@@shivamroy4075 that guy respect them thats why he used sir
Please do not compare him to them. He is unique.
@@shivamroy4075 👏♥️liked your respect towards Irrfan , what I get an idea is that you truly Understands Art
Almost 6 days now, since his death and still not over him.. It's like a personal loss . Can't think anyone who will replace him..
V true
So true
So true...
True.
One of a kind, unique style of his own. Miss you Irfan.
Oh irrfan! How can you break so many hearts and quietly just go away. Not fair :(
Exactly sir.
A saint or a yogi amongst us. Now moved to God's abode. RIP irrfan khan. You entertained us a lot, left us in splits with your humor and now making us cry with your absence. The maturity and wisdom that flows from you was spontaneous. Not an easy thing for even the senio rmosts in the tinseltown. RIP bro.
What a line .."Irrfan is d only actor who has worked with Ang Lee and Anees Bajmee"......RIP Legend
Today he is no more...how much sorrowful...we missed the greatest gem of film industry...
i pray to God that Irrfan soon recovers from his ailment and joins film industry back into action. Ameen
Me too
He is recovered and he is in India now
@@karanshetty2077 no, he still hasn't recovered. He went to London after completing Angrezi Medium. Check his video message to fans on UA-cam just before the trailer.
Rest in peace Mr.Irfan Khan. Sad day for bollywood and whole world..He passed away..
@@karanshetty2077 he has sadly dismissed
this guy was/is an example of an Organic Human Being in this ultra-modern society!
Anupama Mam you're possibly my favourite interviewer. No invasive personal questions about any actor's life and just easy smooth questions about the profession. Your interviews are always a class apart from the rest. Loved this one as usual. Thank you!
Thanks Radhika!
--Anupama Chopra
true.
Indian cinema was blessed to have Irfan Khan and his loss has left a void which is immeasurable. He was a Legend and only thing that is left is his Legacy.
The greatest Indian Actor of all Time. Hats Off. Love from Japan
I cannot tell you guys what's it like to loose this gem of an actor Irffan Khan.
I am a rookie theatre Actor and he was one of my inspiration of becoming an actor.
I cannot even cry.
REST IN PEACE LEGEND, I WILL FOREVER LOVE YOU.❤️
It's the 9th day that he is gone, my eyes are still not drying! He was indeed a part of me. With his absence I am left with a void that would take days to fill.
The heart has been heavy all day. It's hard to digest this loss.
My name is parth too ..
Parth Same here😢..Started to watch his movies ,AGAIN..and crying my heart out😭😭😭
Only some actors know acting in Bollywood and they didn't work for stardom.
this actor is a era of finest art of Indian cinema.
Irrfan is/was an Observer of life , he seemed to have challenged his perceptions till he felt at peace with himself, that made him an artist, actor of life's meaning to portray all humanity, variations , diversity. That made Irrfan a medium transcends all barriers within ourselves, so he brought peace , to us too, the very essence of acceptance oneself as one is. I am so blessed to watch him through his acting. May he be liberated as he wished.🌹❤👈
the most depressing thing about hid death is i can never watch a 65 year old or a 75 year old Irrfan ACT.
Yeh pehla aisa interview thaa jo dobara bhi dekhne ka mann karta hai itna intelligent conversation..par takleef yeh ki pehle jab dekha thaa tab apna hero zinda thaa ab bas yaadein rahengi.
Rewatching it again when babil talked about it in interview with film companion
India's greatest actor since Bollywood emerged...there is a reason why this man was sought after by Hollywood...
Psychology students can make note of his thoughts.. Amazing observations.
Very true
I'm again revisiting this interview after i heard about sudden demise of irrfan sir. RIP Irrfan sir, this feels like personal loss and i literally cried when i heard this news. The loss is personal because Irrfan on screen was us. We associate his face with something that altered us, moved us, cleared us and the life we lived after that shall always be indebted to him for making us come closer to our personal truths.
Well said.felt Like personal loss. cried for him only.
Well.said very true
I don’t think I can ever get this man out of my head, my heart, my being👏
I lost my youngest sister in the year 2009 and was totally shattered. I am going through that same pain knowing I will never see Sir IRRFAN KHAN again. Such impression did he make in our lives. What can be more accomplishing for an artist than to make an impact like that on people. We certainly lost a TREASURE #Legend #thegreatestKhan
Such wisdom can come from only a person who really seriously experimented with himself and his craft. Thank you Irrfan, we'll miss you!
I just wish he had spoken in his trademark urdu hindi. His voice sounds something else when he speaks in hindi. Totally in love with this great personality.
What a guy.. What an actor.. Man I have never missed an actor.. I feel like my brother died
He's one of those people who make you feel soothed just listening to him. I think it's because he was at peace with himself - with his soul...and talks, lives and acts from that sacred place. Once you find your space, you don't need to exaggerate, make fake smiles, speak louder than you should, laugh at the wrong time, put down other people....etc...because there is no point...it doesn't serve you in anyway - to impress or hurt other people. I think Irrfan was that kind of person. May he rest in peace.
So well written.. his voice is soothing and very calming.. his narrative style in the Lunch Box is.. 👌
Such nicely written. Irrfan Khan was really something. It feel like such a huge personal loss. I am still unable to accept that he is not there any more.
Very well said
Just got the news he passed away.
Can't believe such great souls pass away at young age like 53.
Tragic.
We will always miss you. 😔
May his soul rest in peace. Not able to come to terms with the fact that he passed away today. What a versatile actor, a nice man , an adorable father to his kids and a grt husband to his wife. Life is so damn cruel at times.
I just watched 'Celebrating Irrfan' on Film Companion and had to listen Irrfan's voice. I still have difficulty dealing with the fact that he no more treads this earth. His loss felt so personal. I still can't hold my tears when I see or hear him or about him and it's been over an year.
Just watched Parineeti Chopra and Ayushman's interview and halfway through I started to het a headache because of Parineeti's constant yapping but back to normal now with Irrfan's insightful interview!
Parineti is the biggest trash out there
Always loved Irrfan's craft, so unique and versatile and real.Realizing his value and talent more profoundly now that he's left the world :( Very big loss for the industry indeed!!
He is such a gem. He is funny, sensible, intelligent and great human being. RIP legend 😔.
This great intensity..intelligence..humility.. endearing voice...intellectual reasoning. Irrfan was truly a unique person ..completely irreplaceable..why does everyone feel it is a personal loss?? Gone too soon..
I feel like he was such a rare soul in the media /glamour world .never hesitant to say what needs to be said. Finding humour in little things to make us laugh. He reminds me of a magician with his dressing sense too.
There is no words because no words describe the value of this man he is such a legend 💯
one of the finest actor...always be remembered for his great movie..RIP
😣😣😣
At 18:13 We see him drinking water directly without pausing the interview and calling fr a glass. Truely he was one of the most grounded. His fate fell like a personal loss. I wished to see him in more movies and was happy when he came back after treatment but 2020 has not been for world and has one more sad news... Just a question from God that why legends don't stay long😢💔
You have to come and watch this again after Sutapa and Babil interview. Undoubtedly.
Been there done that ✅
Absolutely!
this man is amazing.
only Bollywood face in international movies having acted in amazing spider man,Slumdog,inferno,Jurassic world,namesake,life of pi ,lunchbox .what more can an indian actor could ask?
thanks anupama and FC .You never disappoints
This a purely heartbreaking.... A brilliant actor.... Bollywood' one of the gem we lost... May Allah grant him Jannah 😭💔😭
This is so sad we wont be able to see him anymore. Amazing actor amazing human being. He has given us so much. He talks so little yet show so much. Will miss him always.
that humility, that mindset of I AM STILL STRUGGLING AND ILL BE A GOOD ACTOR SOON....hats off
Love you Irrfan.. Miss you so much.. Come Back. We need you in this world.. Come back
Love to Irrfan. R.I.P.
There will never be another Irrfan Khan.
Legends don't repeat themselves and wonder why!
Hope GOD is listening to us 😔
Love to read comments when people like irfan sir do an interview. So nice to know that some people have no haters .you will see everyone appreciating him 😊
Royal...Truly how smart he looks actuallyy....The way he speaks...my god 🥰 ...God you did wrong with the world ☹️
Cannot ask for a Super star better than Irrfan Khan. So very talented yet so humble. Thats his true success
My love for him is never ending, such a normal, simple person with life full of struggle
True 🥺🥺
A legend like no other. Generations to come will fondly remember Irrfan Khan for his immaculate acting skills (that transcended different genres) in both Indian and world cinema. His passing signals the end of an era. Adieu!
Irfaan ji your eyes speaks volumes of unspoken words of feelings 💘 expectations.
Just respect & love to you.
Day by day my respect and love for
Irrfan sir is growing.... You were such a wonderful person. So well spoken, full of life, family person, down to earth, God of acting, so thoughtful person.....This list will never end up.
Every time I watch this man, I get instant goosebumps and just pure love and respect. Irrfan Khan, I miss you so much, but I know after all you are a soul and I let your soul rest in peace and go. I hope you get & bring even more beautiful experiences in your next lives. Who knows, another brilliant actor and real human is born. We will see in the next 20 years! My goal is to watch all of your movies right now, the masterpieces I have missed, and for sure your legacy will live on. For me, you are the actual Bollywood King, but just my true life inspiration, not even related to acting but just the nature of you I have been able to observe...so the Everything King! Your sons and wife are proud of you and will make you proud too. With love and respect towards your soul, from South America, Suriname. ✊🏼❤️✨
They say 'Diamonds are Forever' .I say 'Legends Live Forever'. Legend Irrfan Bhai Jaan is here with us till life. I truly believe that. -Sunil Bharat
you can see his brilliance. what an intelligent man he was apart from being an incredible actor. So insightful, the world of cinema lost a gem.
He is the king of natural in the art of acting, I can proudly say that nobody can act such unique style of Irfan ji !!!!
It took the news of his death to make me watch this interview. I always thought that there's time and I will watch it eventually when he will 'retire' from films. Apologies for the delay and the reality will always be painful. You left too soon, Sir.
11:38 Ustad is not going through pain , it is inside him. He is playing with the pain , he is enjoying the pain. Waah kya observation hai !
Something about him makes you just want to listen to him. Weilding an aura of a great story teller and craftsmanship. Get well soon Irfan.
I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken...why did he have to go so soon!?
After this pandemic slows down, I would love to create a fan club of him. It would be my way of giving respect to him.
My respect for this man is increasing by the day!
There's such a classy aura of that of an impeccable and non-pompous"ustaad" about this artist, such a magnificent man !!
he will never be fully gone from inside us all... what an adorable human being!
He is such a mature,composed,straightforward guy.Also his sense of humor is great.
You just want to keep listening to him,so much depth but so natural and honest.True artist.Did not get his due in the Indian cinema.
Srk,Salman and others look like jokers!
How humble was he! It’s shocking that we’re now talking about him in past tense! Love him! Will miss him on screen immensely! Rest in peace Irrfan Sir! 🥺💔❤️🙏🏻
He was something else. Will miss him a lot. He was one of the most precious gem Bollywood ever had.👍
I'm obsessed with Anupama's interview. Such good content.
Intellectual too
Irrafan have taken his last breath
You've clearly not watched the slow interviews with Neelesh Mishra. More soul. Wish He had done one with Irrfan. but thats a regret that will stay forever.
She's not good..
he's just so amazing! and I love how his eyes are so intense and expressive even when he's just talking :)
I find him very handsome and charming. Bollywood beauty standards make no sense to me. Perfectly good looking people get snubbed. I don't know what you need to look like to be considered beautiful in this industry. Maybe a Playboy Model?
But Now those Wonderful Eyes of Irrfan Khan Sir ,Has been Closed.
@@TashreefShareef it's ironic how you were so quick to judge me from something as superficial as a profile picture without even knowing me in real life. Also if you've ever listened to Katrina speak, you'd know what a wonderful, genuine and self aware person she is. Qualities which I'll always admire and the same qualities I see in Irrfan sir, which brings me here. May his soul RIP.
@@naughtykid7958 he'll always live in our hearts. Forever.
His intelligence shines through no wonder he was such a great actor!
He has become immortal through all his movies and interviews like this. Om Shanthi.
If you look at his portfolio, you'll find that no actor has done such diverse genre movies. #Legend
Watching this after listening to Homi's and Radhika's latest interview with FC, just to see this amazing talent again and again and may be try and forget this amazing talent is in pain. Hope hope he recovers, he gets to throw back those damn lemons fate threw at him. Prayers with you Irfan😓
Rewatching his films and all interviews 😢
I thought I'll watch his all stuff in Quarantine but not thought i have to watch bc of his departure..
Artist like him never die🌸
I can't bear watching this interview with out feeling absolutely heartbroken! I feel he is going to be mourned forever!
Get well soon in shaa allah irfan bhai , one of the greatest actor
I believe the Hindi film Industry owes an apology to Irfan Khan! What a legend!!Hats off man!! Imagine how the movie "Raaes" wud hav shaped up if Irfan Khan acted in it n adapted it in a more darker n realistic way!! We r living in a generation where actors like srk n salman r considered superstars!! Jab tak yeh Mumbai ki family oriented movie making business n 3 Khans ki camp chalega tab taak we cannot reach the high standard of movie making!! Bahubali is a pan Indian Movie which is a big slap to low standard bollywood! We need to give recognitions to legends like Irfan Khan, thn only current generation top actors like Ranbir kapoor,Shahid Kapoor,Alia bhatt,Kangana Ranaut,Sushant Singh Rajput's will get the courage to be different n create new kind of performances.. also actors like Randeep Hooda,Rajkummar Rao n others hardwork must be appreciated!!
nawaz is overrated now, nothing compared to irfan.
dude aamir ko kyun khasit raha hai dono salman aur srk ke saath
100%agree
Neel Sen very well said
Neel Sen dude the people of the country own apology..... had irfan acted in raees....would it be able to make....100 cr +
A piece of my heart has gone with him but he stays in me, with the goodness in me because if not for his philosophies, I would have been all over the place. Irrfan, is not the name of a human being, but a phenomena. You were, you are and you’ll stay forever. Those eyes and that voice will guide me through the day, all my life. Thank You for existing in flesh and blood! 🙏🏻
Well said
He seems like that book everytime you read you learn more n more...🙏🙏
i still cannot digest he is no more.. he is such a wonderful actor..
It's one week since he left us mortally.One of the best character actors of Bollywood and one of the first actors of our age who made his mark in International Cinema.He left a void in quality Cinema which is very difficult to fill up.R.I.P Irfan vai will miss u.
Watching this to free from the trauma of Irfan sir's death❣️
The Beauty of life learning from itself is this man . Rest in peace legend 🙌🏻🙌🏻
the respected actor or the intuitive magician. love to hear him always.
I loved seeing Irrfan Khan's movies. He is so special and down to earth person. watching him is a treat and he is very versatile in playing any character role given to him, The world of cinema is going to miss him for his acting skills and an honest and family man. Long live his memories given to the film industry.
Fantastic actor of international renown! I'm thankful for all His work, inner wisdom, charm, wit & talent. RIP❤ 🙏❤
Yaar sir 3 saal ke daur main aap chale gaye hume chodhke. Aap bahut yaad aa rahe hai. Kuch log amar hote hai. Unme se ek aap hai.
Aapki awaaz aur andaaz bahut yaad ayegi. Acting ke badhshah hai aap. I love you. I will.miss you forever.
May allah give u peace , heaven and may you spend the rest of your life with ur mom in sukoon.
#RIP saab. I love you.
I am so much fascinated by him.
When he was alive never felt like this. Now I see all interview and find ' how fascinated and amazing personality he was 😍😍
Came back to see this again. Probably seeing it for the 5th time. And will keep coming back. We have too little of your rare talent. Bhagwaan aapko bahut pyaar de! 🙏❤️💔
31:00 has the best lines in the interview. It is so pure and even anupama felt the same. Such an outstanding actor and equally wonderful person. RIP Irrfan !!
Within few year's so many actor's live this earth,but never cried for any one ,but when Irfan sir died i cried my heart out and every time I watch any of his interviews or movies i cant watch it without criyng.
Just watched angrezi medium
Irfan sir salute you You have beautifully defined the feelings of a father and his love for his child.😢😢😢😢😢😢
