The actor wriggled out of an awkward situation by using his sense of humour and presence of mind.
Irrfan Khan was at an event last weekend when he was asked a rather sensitive question.
A scribe asked
him that there is news that his next film might have a Pakistani actress playing a role.
Knowing how sensitive now the situation is, shouldn’t he be worried?
Irrfan was quick with his retort. He said that his actress Sabah Qamar might be Pakistani by birth but now she’s technically an Indian because she’s married an Indian.
This settled the matter immediately.
