These 4 Hollywood Movies Were Rejected By Irrfan Khan!

2) The Martian 

Irrfan was offered a pivotal role in another science-fiction film – ‘The Martian’, directed by Ridley Scott and starring Matt Damon. 

However, he had chosen to stick to his Bollywood commitment first and gave preference to ‘Piku’ over this Hollywood space movie. Irrfan did not regret this choice as he felt ‘Piku’ was an important film in his career.

“It was a lengthy, pivotal role but I had already committed the dates to Shoojit Sircar for Piku,” Irrfan had told Mumbai Mirror.
