Lisa
Ray
Makes
An
Emotional
Revelation
About
Irrfan
Khan
Lisa
Ray,
who
made
her
Bollywood
debut
with
Irrfan
Khan
in
2011
film
Kasoor,
revealed
that
the
actor
used
to
listen
to
Lata
Mangeshkar's
iconic
song
'Lag
Jaa
Gale'
during
his
cancer
treatment.
Lisa
wrote
in
her
tweet,
"Very
sad
to
hear
of
Irrfan
Khan's
passing.
An
artist
who
set
new
standards
in
cinema
in
India
and
aboard.
‘Lag
jaa
gale
ki
phir
yeh
haseen
raat
ho
na
ho,
shayad
phir
is
janam
mein,
mulakat
ho
na
ho'
is
the
song
he
listened
to
during
his
cancer
treatment
and
a
reminder
for
us
all."
Lisa
Was
Speechless
By
Irrfan's
Performance
In
This
Film
She
wrote
in
another
post
on
her
Instagram
page,
"His
quiet,
electrifying
performance
in
@asifkapadia1
The
Warrior
rendered
me
speechless.
There
was
no
role
he
could
not
make
his
own."
Lisa
Shares
A
Memory
From
The
Sets
Of
Kasoor
She
continued
in
her
post,
"But
a
little
known
fact,
is
I
met
Irrfan
on
the
set
of
my
first
Hindi
film
#Kasoor.
He
played
the
opposing
lawyer
in
a
courtroom
scene,
and
even
in
this
small
role
he
was
impossible
to
ignore.
‘Well
done'
he
told
me
afterwards.
He
had
removed
his
lawyer's
robe
and
walked
with
an
even
more
dignified
authority,
though
he
was
a
struggling
actor
in
those
days."
Lisa
Mourns
Irrfan's
Demise
"He's
a
once
in
a
generation
artist
who
set
new
standards
in
cinema
in
India
and
aboard.
I
feel
irredeemably
grief
stricken,
but
in
the
end
we
need
to
celebrate
what
he
illuminated
for
us
on
screen
through
his
humane
performances.
I
read
that
when
he
embarked
on
treatment
for
cancer
he
asked
life
to
embrace
him
with
the
fervour
of
the
lyrics
of
one
of
his
favourite
songs:
‘Lag
jaa
gale
ki
phir
yeh
haseen
raat
ho
na
ho,
shayad
phir
is
janam
mein,
mulakat
ho
na
ho'
