Irrfan
Khan's
untimely
demise
has
left
the
entertainment
industry
in
shock.
Many
celebrities
remembered
the
actor
and
paid
tribute
to
him.
Veteran
actor
Akhilendra
Mishra,
who
worked
with
Irrfan
in
Chandrakanta
as
Kroor
Singh
is
also
shocked
and
saddened
with
the
news
of
his
former
co-actors
sudden
demise.
Akhilendra
told
TOI,
"The
news
is
very
tragic
because
an
actor
who
struggled
so
hard
to
make
his
name
and
career,
could
not
live
to
enjoy
it.
Everyone
knows
about
his
success,
but
the
hardships
and
struggle
that
has
gone
to
reach
here,
nobody
knows
about
it.
This
was
the
time
when
his
craft
was
getting
recognized
not
only
on
national
but
International
level
too.
The
hard
work
that
he
had
put
into
the
last
25-30
years
now
he
was
getting
a
chance
to
enjoy
that.
It
is
the
most
beautiful
part
of
any
actor's
life
when
you
start
getting
noticed
and
people
love
you,
but
Irrfan
couldn’t
taste
the
success.
He
has
gone
too
soon.
It’s
very
disheartening.
He
was
a
terrific
actor
with
a
different
style
and
charisma."
He
went
on
to
add,
"We
spent
a
lot
of
time
during
the
making
of
Chandrakanta.
I
remember
telling
him
not
to
do
TV
shows
back
to
back
and
save
himself
for
the
big
screen
and
he
had
replied
back
saying,
Akhil
ji
I
want
to
buy
a
house
and
that’s
why
I
am
doing
these
shows.
Every
person
dreams
of
settling
down,
having
a
house,
family
and
he
was
no
different.
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
work
with
him.
We
reunited
with
Madhuri
Dixit’s
comeback
film
Aaja
Nachle
and
he
was
still
the
same.
He
had
the
same
conviction
and
zeal
for
acting.
We
bonded
really
well
on
the
sets
and
had
a
great
time
working.”
