So around that time, someone introduced me to the director of Chandrakanta,” he said.Īfter acting in a few episodes of Chandrakanta, Irrfan realised that he was ‘barely getting 4-5 lines per episode’ and began wondering if he would have more to do in the future. So you had to go to the producer or director and literally beg, ‘I haven’t paid my rent, my children are starving…’ You wouldn’t get paid till you made up stories like that.
