Irrfan Khan was revered as one of the finest actors in the Indian film industry. He first gained recognition with the Oscar-nominated Hindi film 'Salaam Bombay!' and later appeared in acclaimed movies such as 'Life in a... Metro', 'The Lunchbox', and 'Hindi Medium'. His talent transcended borders, with notable performances in international projects that earned him acclaim worldwide, solidifying his status in global cinema. The actor died from cancer in April 2020.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Babil was last seen in the web series 'The Railway Men: The Untold Story of Bhopal 1984'. It also stars R Madhavan, Kay Kay Menon, and Divyenndu.
'The Railway Men' is set against the backdrop of the Bhopal gas leak tragedy. It showcases the unshakeable courage of the employees of Indian Railways and their efforts to save countless lives during the city's darkest hours. In the late hours of December 2, 1984, methyl isocyanate gas leaked from a pesticide factory owned by the Union Carbide Corporation. The gas disaster is considered the world's worst industrial tragedy.
Talking about the praise for 'The Railway Men', he told IANS, "I have one dream. Characters will come and go, but I have to win the hearts of each and every Indian, and that I will achieve for sure."
Babil has also been a part of projects like 'Qala', and 'Friday Night Plan'. The 25-year-old next has 'The Umesh Chronicles' in the pipeline.
