I don't think the commercial industry will accept that he has the attitude to be a leading man. They would prefer an actor who has given 500 flops because he has a chocolate face, but not someone unconventional.

Irrfan adds on to a role. That is reason enough for me (to cast him). It takes a movie like The Warrior, which won a BAFTA, for women in England to ask who this actor with a smoldering new look is. We will only wake up to events once the West looks at it or once it is undeniable. Like Murder. No one can deny that Murder is a big hit!
