Appreciating the ' Life of Pi ' actor, Amit stated, 'Aisi legacy ke hamare beech mein nahi hain Irrfan bhai, main literally kabhi kabhi bhayankar miss karne lag jaata hu, kuch kaam dekh liya ye kar liya. (The kind of legacy that I literally miss him after watching Irrfan Khan's work.)' Babil Khan and his bond with Irrfan Khan As the interview evolved, Sial asked to leave every consideration aside and stated that Babil Khan had lost his father, pointing out the bond and the uneasy vacuum he must have felt after the sudden loss. The ' Mirzapur ' actor admitted that he felt lost until he was 30, and thanked the almighty for not having any social media when he was young, or else he would've posted even more videos than Babil Khan. Amit, frustratingly, said the analysis of someone's life or emotions is unnecessary, citing that nobody figured out what Babil exactly stated. He further added that he saw the video and closed it, which is what one should ideally do, admitting that Khan must have made a mistake without realising the overwhelming consequences. Stating the bottom line, Amit Sial advised that one should mind their own business. Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .
