“I don’t understand why you wish to put all of the Khans in a single bag and blend them up. Had I been prepare with them if my name was Irrfan Ali?” the actor said to a matter concerning the dominance of Khans in Bollywood.
“Everyone has his own place and a surname doesn’t benefit you, otherwise there would was such a lot of Khans roaming around within the industry,” added the 49-year-old.
Irrfan have been highly praised for his last movie “Paan Singh Tomar”, before which he dropped his surname.
But name and success don't have anything to do with each other, he said, adding: “Khan is simply a surname and it's as much as you ways much importance you give to it.”
“Everyone is standing on his strength. If Aamir Khan’s name were something else, even then he would has been what he's today because your work counts greater than the name.”
Irrfan says “Paan Singh Tomar” owes its success to the best way public promoted it on social networking sites.
“The way people supported this film, and naturally the media, because it received critical acclaim, mattered. However the manner by which people promoted it, especially on social networking sites, that benefited this film immensely,” said Irrfan.
The actor has finished shooting for a ecu film “Qissa” and in addition “The Amazing Spider Man.” He'll soon start shooting for Tigmanshu Dhulia’s “Sahib, Biwi aur Gangster Returns.” – IANS
