Irrfan Khan’s untimely
demise is a grief of every cinephile, Bollywood film buff and Irrfan Khan fan.
It’s as personal as it is collective — a community grieving the loss of an
artiste par excellence. Deepika Padukone’s simple yet heart touching tribute to
her friend and colleague from Piku taps into that feeling — a feeling of
the passing of someone near, familiar, loved. The actress and mother-to-be
shared a throwback photo from the Kolkata leg of shooting of the Shoojit Sircar
directed film.
Deepika also cracked a
joke on Amitabh Bachchan, who played the role of Bhaskar Banerjee in the movie.
“He loves telling everyone how much I eat!” wrote the actress in the caption, sharing
an endearing anecdote about the camaraderie that they share.
Taking a trip down
memory lane with Deepika, it’s time to rewatch Piku, to relive a story
so palpably beautiful, and to also watch Irrfan Khan on screen, once
again.
“@irrfan Oh how much we
miss you…” — we agree, Deepika.
