| ||||
Thursday, 7th Jan 2016, 2:28 PM IST Irrfan Khan will be seen as Sahir Ludhianvi in the biopic of the poet which will be directed by Jasmeet Reen. The movie will be produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Arshi Dua. There were reports that Farhan Akhtar might replace Irrfan in the film. But, a source said, "Why go by rumours? It was even rumoured that Arjun Kapoor was to play Sahir Ludhianvi! It was always Irrfan. His sensitivities and his personality suit the part." SLB also approves of Irrfan as Sahir. The source said, “In fact Bhansali wanted Irrfan to do the voiceover for ‘Bajirao Mastani’. Irrfan immediately agreed and asked for the technical team to come to Jaisalmer where he is shooting. Within two hours he completed the entire voiceover. He refused payment for the voiceover."
