The Final shot

29.4.20 “The Final Shot” - I wanted to post this earlier but I got a little emotional while making this artwork of the greatest artist with the finest acting skills. - This illustration is my way of paying respect to the very talented and dedicated actor ‘Irrfan Khan’ ji. - There’s no denying to how easy it was for all of us to relate to his characters, which were quite simple but yet powerful. - From making us all laugh in hindi medium to playing a baagi in Paan singh tomar. - You always helped us see the world with a different perspective. - We’re all sad but moreover sorry, that we appreciated you and your work but never gave you the ideal fame that you deserved. - You will always be in our hearts and moreover in the stories that we’d be telling to our coming generations about an actor whose art was so fine that it could make heavens cry and nethers laugh. - At the very end I’d just say: “I suppose in the end, The whole of life becomes an act of letting go, but what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye” - RIP sir, we’re blessed to have witnessed your work.
