- I have been recording conversations between scientists, entrepreneurs, policymakers, and artists as a part of a continuing film project.
In 2015, ideas curator Lakshmi Pratury brought great change-makers together for the INK Talks conference in Mumbai.
In the hotel lobby, I paired people who didn’t know each other, together, for candid freewheeling conversations. I offered them only three cues - the self, the ecosystem, and the future of humans.
In one such exchange, actor Irrfan and entrepreneurs Asha Jadeja, Sunny Singh, and Anu Aga shared insights with each other.
While this is yet to be edited for the final film, the following raw edit is being released as a tribute to the great actor as I remember him - a vast, compassionate, rational, and graceful seeker of truth.

“You have just 30 seconds..Irrfan has to leave” that hit me so hard.
Absolutely! It hit me real hard too!
🥲
It did
Thank you for giving us the closure we needed Anand.
I like your movie reviews! Oops not a movie review'!
+1
Sucharita Tyagi, I don’t think this video gives us a closure ! Though I want something to do so ! Infact, this video makes me wonder what newer spaces he would have travelled, had he lived more 😢😢
There can't be closure.. Gone too soon..
95% times I don't agree with you. Gladly this counts amongst the other 5%. Well said 👍🏼
How he just respectfully made the guy instantly join into the conversation and not making him feel left out or ignored. How he asked her if it was alright to ask about something personal.. Man! We lost a unique gentleman with a talent that was beyond.
ua-cam.com/video/7JfNeyaV-Wk/v-deo.html best tribute..do.watch..you're gonna love it..
So true
@Nicole Joesph No he didn't cz this is scripted I mean not the conversation but these four people this is not a coincidence that that guy came and he instantly join him.
@@pcgaming2320 I meant in general.. The way he gracefully talks and greets even the older women.
I can't get over Irfan's death while this pandemic is going crazy
"Maybe the consciousness is experiencing itself through us!"- Irrfan Khan
I also love Irrfan as a person but this idea is a very common one in people studying eastern philosophy
@@existentialist1539 this is not even an idea
This is just an illogical statement
Brahman created this world to experience itself. -Adi Shankaracharya
That's Irrfan.......not just a movie star...he had an ideology..was a philosopher........ fantastic...may god bless his soul....
This is how normal, educated and civilized people converse... so many things to learn. Irfan Khan RIP.. . India lost a Jewel
We will create more
His material in-existence does no imply “loss”. He is in all of us and we have just started to understand him.
Anand Gandhi, you're a gift to this planet. The kind of things you're doing, it will take a lot of time for a lot of us to understand the value of it. Thank you so much for everything. And thank you so much for this.
indeed
Ship of theseus
"Excuse me, irrfan has a flight to catch, we've to wrap this up in 30 seconds." this just shot shivers down my spine...
Questioning is the real Faith, he was his own person and his cinema a reflection of his soul.
amazing! so true!
while watching the father-son conversation (in the car) clip from Namesake, I realized that the dialogues in the scene were almost the same words that Irrfan was using years later answering a journalist's question narrating experiences about parent hood. undoubtedly, it is needless to say his acting was so reflective of and intertwined with his life-experiences !
So true
@@kumarnarayana5105 I want to see Name sake movie i dont know from where I can get it ... can u suggest me
@@swatiyadav6558 I would suggest you to read the book first. You will absolutely love it.
@@swatiyadav6558
Hi Swati, you can rent it from Amazon, is the best I can suggest! Or in case you have a membership, some public libraries may get movies for their patrons!
This made me cry . I don’t know why we all think that we have lost someone who was just like us . Not a movie star but Just like us . Great human being ❤️
True
I saw an interview today and I remember him saying why he did not want to be called a star but just an actor... he said he didn't want to send across a message to his audiences that he is in any way superior to them and he wanted each one of them to know that he is just one of us on the big screen.. such a lovely human being!
Our stay on this Earth is short, our roles dispensable and our impact inconsequential...
That makes everything pertinent or inconsequential ?
We have been made to believe that our roles on earth are dispensable and our impact inconsequential. In the true nature of things, Life itself is a book of Lessons and our impact is our ideal purpose.
@@PriyaSingh-zi6ee false thought... what impact other organisms bring upto the earth??? Human imapct is based on his selfishness and luxury... look how earth changed during this lockdown... now its clear what impact humans are doing
I would take that with a pinch of salt as the newest geological epoch has been named "Anthropocene" after the enormous impact that human beings are having on the physical cycles of the Earth; it's hard to proclaim it to be inconsequential.
Not even a single speck of dust is inconsequential
Now I know why we all felt different about Irrfan''s death than any other celebrity. He is a divine soul who was here for just some moments. 😪
And now same happened with sushant.😔 this year is getting worst
now that's an actor, one who didn't surrender his life to the superficialities of Bollywood and stardom, but rather inwards, such a spiritual soul
The way irrfan ji welcomed that old lady shows his clarity of soul... we miss a gem..... heart broken 😥
Gem! he was
Truly a Gem! He was
Yes, it's very really. Imagine Salman or SRK or KJO welcoming her. They talk so automated way, no insight no realism, speak just to please audience
This side of Irrfan Khan was never seen before. He was intellectual and an awakened human being. Rest in Peace, Sir!
You can tell Irrfan didn't belong here and he left for higher realms in his quest! We love you! We miss you! But we didn't deserve you! You are a Gem! I gained so much from You and I keep gaining everyday! Om Shanti Irrfan may you attain Sadgati
He could have been such a prolific writer. What a philosopher! Irrfan you were a gem . It requires courage to say that what do cricketers, actors etc contribute to the society. So insightful.
We are literally by products of consumerism. We buy stuff we don't need to impress people we don't like. A whole generation being slaves of marketing and consumerism. What a tragedy!
Irrfan. He was and is a higher soul. He simply has transcended into where he belonged. This journey here in this World was literally only a journey and he basically reached his destination... I think he found his purpose and therefore he went, or rather therefore he leaves his learnings for all of us. Salute to his life. Beautiful conversation. Looking forward to the full project.
I'm sure he was a sixth density being , here on eartg as a wanderer, to help soul ascension of other lower density beings. He is back with the Council now selecting his next incarnation.
Yesterday, I read Sutapa mam's tweet, she said the actor always used to find gain in everything and after going through this video I realised she was right when she said there is a gain in his departure. The multi dimensional view point and saying we Indians looking for role models. I rightly agree with his points. We are taking spirituality in a different direction. We have been fighting on having best spiritualism in the world even without knowing the half of it. The more we know about it the more is unknown to know. I gained from his death...I gained his attitude to do the right thing even if others aren't doing because right is right even if zero person is doing it. Wrong is wrong even if all of them are doing. Thanks a ton for uploading this video and I wish we could have more videos featuring the young mind with grey hairs. 🙂
"you should be easy with the uncertainty and the unknowable"
Even irfan told one of is sons as teaching about it ..
He's great human being and constant thinker around the clock
That hit me really hard
How can 13 people even dislike it. I hope they remain busy on their tiktoks only
its become 50 now
Last part where vasan comes to say he has a flight to catch, afterwards the phrase which he tells is so profound.
*We Should Be Easy With Uncertainty*
In this conversation, only Irrfan was worth listening to. Not trying to push any politics, not trying to sound learned, he simply is so intelligent.
After watching Irrfan's talk laced with gems and jewels (and so was everyone else's), his absence is felt more intensely. This quote by Rumi came to me: "The wound is the place where the Light enters you."
It's like I am still not done, I want to hear him more! I want to watch him more! Thank you for this wonderful video.
What a philosophically insightful conversation!
I think it's metaphoric that Irrfan had to catch a flight and this beautiful conversation had to be wrapped up, leaving us wanting more of it just like his untimely demise and our longing for more of Irrfan's work.
Still struggling to come to terms with his death.
Irrfan Khan is unique, for him acting was his passion that turned into a profession and nothing beyond that. He understood life is more than fame and display of extravagance, it was to live it with contentment and caring. Why is that I didn't know more about this wonderful soul when he existed. RIP.
I don't think he's left us. His wisdom will germinate in those who recognise and seek his mysticism and Sufiyana.
The kinda conversation I want surround myself with
Irrfan indeed was an enlightened soul. You will be missed,sir.
The humbleness makes these people think widely, listen to every viewpoint in this cosmic evolution
humility*
Found this video through recommendations and after watching this missed Irfan Khan so much, such a soulful thinker. One point that stayed is “ by the time we form a definition, the definition changes”.
Marvelous !! I literally had tears in the end. His ora is so pure. You can see that. You can feel that. You can listen that.
All I feel is : Enlightened !
Thank you Anand, Irrfan !
He was not just a superb actor, but also a thinking, questioning and highly intelligent human being. He will be missed.
Beautiful.. So many things emerging after his death.. His thought process.. He was evolved.. Probably he is.. In fact still around us.
Thank you Anand Gandhi and all the crew behind. When the disheartening news came about irrfan, instantly I wanted to watch is the sequence in Life of pi on god. Unfortunately I couldn't find it on UA-cam. Then I saw your post on Instagram about this conversation.
Irrfan has a flight to catch, then I felt he suddenly slip in to a fantastic realm. I wish he never booked a flight and the conversation be longer. Thank you for this one Anand.
Hi Hari
Can you help me with Anand's insta id?
Maybe Anand can himself share, if he sees this reply.
Also things like this conversation and Irrfan's time with all of us had to end somewhere
We'll always be longing for more!
That's human!
@@sanidhyabindal845 memewala - insta
@@sanidhyabindal845 yes :)
Hari M Mohanan, don’t you think it seems metaphorical, that Irrfan has flight to catch, and this video has to end ?!! Flight as in passing away, video as in the video of life ?!! And both, this video and his life, left all of us wishing for more 😢😢
This is the best tribute I have seen on the internet. Thank you Anand Gandhi and team for this. It’s a gem. 🖤
What a tribute..Many thanks!!
The way Anand ended the video is something I can 't stop admiring. Everyone parting their ways and the chaos begins
Respect for Irrfan has rose drastically knowing him by some of his videos like this...
I've personally met asha ma'am. She's this humble, everytime. And gives out immense amount of energy to the people around her.
Irrfan was different fm other Khans, I believe, he was Divine soul. His Rajasthani roots, made hm more Wiser. As,he grew in Hindu Culture.Gud video.
It's a very nice conversation on spirituality ..... Irrfan Sir mode of wishing others is great and involving in any aspects amazing..... being a great great great star he is always humble simple normal towards others......Sir I will miss u throughout my lifelong to U RIP🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏LUV U SIR
Irrfan, how badly will you be missed. You have left a vacuum. Discovering so many things about you after you have left. I wasn’t aware of your spiritual side. Great concept, Mr. Gandhi, only wish the other people in the conversation were as intelligent as Irrfan. Somehow I felt they dint even realise what wisdom and inner experience Irrfan was talking about.
Yes I felt so Gautam, the other guy seemed talking for the sake of it. Irrfan was 100% with himself as if he was talking to his soul. All these years I have all time for filmy gossips, airport look, who is dating who, what's happening on koffe with karan types things, I now realized I was having JUNK food. The organic food has left us. Ii wish I could be more aware of his existence when he was here. Actually biggies like Khans and the nepotism have been thrown to us everywhere social media, newspaper, magazines, award shows And we got carried away by that
Mithlesh Malav agree mate, i somehow was grieving his death; and it came as a surprise to me for I am generally detached and such things do not affect me at all. But with him I felt as if it was a personal loss; especially because of the realisation of his spiritual depth.
In him I not only lost my best actor but also an on-screen tutor who has taught us, life is so very simple yet worth-living, if we live it with simplicity...Man, I don't know why, the more time passes, the more intolerably is your absence felt!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
Irrfan - graceful seeker of truth ❤️
thank you Anand Gandhi
Summary :
1) Our stay in this world is so short
2) Our roles, dispensable
3) Our impact is inconsequential
one of the best things I watched on UA-cam so far... even to have such an initiative where people are just talking and LISTENING to each other without the need of glittery surroundings is a big step. And hats off to the person who came up with this. BEAUTIFUL. Would love to see your final project soon! good luck!!
Irrfan da was a philosopher who conveyed his ideas through his acting !
What a great analysis bro.
he was above all the actors, I guess that was the reason.
Seriously It's.... More Best to Know Him Via this Vedio....
His Curiousity Towards Truth Led Many People To Love Him.... 😊😇🙏 Love and Respect
He goes and leaves a path open to realization of truth and consciousness.
This is quite a revelation. Never knew Irrfan was so articulate and so deep in his thoughts.
A beautiful person gone too early. Miss his sincerity! He had so much more to give. I hope that we all try and understand how inquisitive yet respectful he was to life and nature, and I hope we all can imbibe that in at least some ways in our lives. Still so much to learn from him.
Best part.. 16:01 Listen to Irrfan's version of truth which is beyond any comprehension of religion.. Irrfan was a great philosopher.. His view of looking at life, mortality and truth is impressive.. I wished to have listened to you more.. "We have this sense of 'we' or self.. 'We'' are nothing.. Maybe the consciousness is experiencing itself through us.." 🙏
I keep coming back to this video every 2-3 years, shed a tear and go away! Thank you so much Anand.
Thank you for releasing this Anand. Helps grieve his loss.
I have been reading about Irrfan's death since the news came out being numb. This video finally let me cry. Thank you for the closure.
A humble request. Whenever you complete the final cut, please leave this segment as it is unedited. Will miss this guy so much 😔
Anand, thank you for sharing this! RIP Irrfan! Look forward to the complete version release of your film!
This the kind of deep open conversation that's required. Don't be a fan. Don't be just a blind follower. Think, question, go find out, think and analyse again and see if the answers that you found for yourself works for you at a larger scale empowering you and yet not harming any senti beings. Go seek out and find yourself.✌️
Hell yeah, I am crying.
Why did it end?
Why did you leave us?
Why did Anand interrupt them?
Why couldn't we listen him more?
Why couldn't we watch him more?
He was a treasure.
"The man who only earned love."
Finally, Thanks Anand for your benevolence.😌
Such a simple man just like any other human being, not a star ,you are a super human in my eyes.Respect for you.
Thanks for not editing, missing you so much irfan sir😑💙
Thank you, thank you so much for this. this was beautiful.
We have NOT LOST Irrfan - we have found him! He has lived longer than we think and will longer than we will.Thank you for sharing.
The art of listening and conveying opinion can be learnt from this gentleman.
Anand Gandhi Thankyou soo much brother for sharing this video with all of us🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Irrfan..with so much depth , clarity,person who was so calm,composed, insightful, spontaneous, humane, humble,witty, loving ....he is just flawless ... a genius who achieved everything by sheer hard work...he deserved and will continue to get all love , respect and accolades for being such a Brilliant artist and above all a great human being ! We are proud to have witnessed your brilliance ..And you will be remembered always for giving such a high standard in all respects 🙏🙏🙏with love and respect...one of your millions fans !
Thanks for giving us the closure. Much needed. Couldn't digest the fact that he is no longer with us. But now its makes sense a bit. Love ❤
He has traveled to an unknown world and is resting in peace, I will still long for all that we will miss because of Him not been around. It’s hard to get over this and strangely it feels like such a personal loss with just being an admirer of his work.
Thank you Anand. This was beautiful. You captured him at his best.
I am short of words. Too many thoughts in my head while I am continuing to be at ease with all the uncertainties. Thank you for sharing this. It is pure.
Thanks a lot for this. This is the Irffan we didn’t know. More love!
Irrfan Khan was an advanced soul.
He was awakened which not many ppl will understand.
I think he must have attained Moksha
Maybe he just got relieved from the cycle of birth and death.
Thank you so much for this Anand Gandhi ❤️❤️. I'd love to watch the film in its entirety some day soon!
just wow, thank you so much, Anand, for these wonderful lessons with Irrfan and other great people.
I am immensely thankful to you for uploading this. There was a lump in my throat. He really cared about society and how his body of work affected society. Thank you for being inspiration.
What a conversation. Can't wait for the final film. What a conversation.
Thanks for sharing this video with the world. He was a real gem. Will miss watching his work and he was a terrific and composed human being.
We lost a beautiful and true soul. Thank you Anand for sharing this with us.
Towards the end when Anand interrupted just to say that Irrfan has to go, my heart escaped a beat...
That rational mind and charismatic personality might have been gone, but his words and body of work stays with us forever; just the way he concluded the conversation.
Thanks a lot Anand
Thank you so so much for capturing this and sharing it with us. 🤗
He was a beautiful soul, thank you for this ❤
Thankyou Anand for giving us the close glimpse of Irrfan!
Salute to Irrfan. He gave efforts in trying to understand the meaning of life. A good role model to acquire some of his ideas. RIP Irrfan Sir.
why i am crying after listening the conversation , is it Expainable . But not in the memory of Great Irrfan who makes me smile whenever i try to recall the Legacy of the LEGEND.
I don’t think I will ever witness a better conversation in my lifetime. You are missed Irrfan sir
That's really fantastic. No direct media, simpler conversations, and discussions. Enjoyed it. Thanks, Anand.
Thank you so very much for sharing this and giving us such a close glimpse of his inner self and thinking.
I teared up! How perfect this soulful gentleman is #Irrfan Khan will always remain alive through his legacy ❤
"the more you know, the unknown it gets!". Thanks, Anand for putting this out. Each passing day gives the testimony of how much Irrfan has left behind!
Now i know why this irreparable loss feels so personal. I can sense an evolved and great soul left this mortal world for higher journey. Irrfan you were a rare gem, there shall never be one like you. My heart aches for you, your words, and your physical sight. May you attain eternal peace wherever you are. ❤
Extremely grateful to you for sharing this video sir. Why did we loose such a gem of a person . No wonder so many are mourning Irrfan’s loss as as one of their own’s. It’s the unknowable.
Great thanks to the guy who uploaded this video, no words for you brother.... You just gave me a huge perspective for life
Anand, thank u so much for this. The man was a beautiful evolving seeker. What a shame we could not Learn more from him
Unbelievable! Irrfan had read Sri Aurobindo!! Wow. Only those who have read him will understand what I am saying.
There will be nobody like him ever again. I think he was evolved more than the whole lot of woke people.
Thanks so much Anand Gandhi for sharing this -there are many of us who are saddened by his departure-though knowing him only through his work and interactions like these .I believe Irrfan is a learned man and so god took him away from us.Its Always this set that god picks to his place irrespective of their journey time on earth!!
Sir, please bring the full episode of irrfan sir talking, can’t get over this❤❤.
There was an unrest in me ever since I read about his demise, thank you for uploading this video. It feels soothing to have a glance at his thoughts and his journey that hasn't ended yet. Thank you
