See another side of the late, great actor Irrfan Khan (Life of Pi, The Lunchbox, Slumdog Millionaire) in this hilarious gangster movie parody from director Aditya Bhattacharya (Raakh). Shot in 2005 but virtually unavailable to see until now, it stars Khan as a former hitman who returns to India after lying low in Dubai following his last job: a hit on a high-profile target. Much to his chagrin, he finds out that someone else has taken credit for his work while he was away, and he resolves to restore his honor by any means necessary. “A roller coaster of situations and a comedy of errors and a quirky lead character make this film a fun watch” (Yash Bharati, GQ India). Join Bhattacharya after the screening for a conversation about his colorful career. (Dir.: Aditya Bhattacharya, India, 2005, 103 min., DCP, Hindi with English subtitles)
