Priyanka makes Irrfan Khan glow
Wooing her for ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ leads to automatic romantic enthusiasm, he says
We suppose it's the effect that the gorgeous Priyanka Chopra has on most men. Irrfan Khan, who is experimenting with his looks to play a love-stuck poet in ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’, says the idea of wooing Priyanka makes one "automatically glow".
"I play a 'shayar' who is completely in love with Priyanka Chopra. Yes, the makeup artiste has worked out a look around my strange face so that for the first time I look different. In any case, if one has to woo Priyanka, one automatically glows with romantic enthusiasm. She's very inspiring," Irrfan, told IANS.
"I can't reveal any more about my character. But I must thank Vishal Bharadwaj for allowing me to court two of the most beautiful women on screen. It was Tabu in 'Maqbool' and now Priyanka in this film," said Irrfan.
The actor played a love-stuck poet in Govind Nihalani's ‘Drishti’ (1990) where he romanced an older woman, played by Dimple Kapadia.
In ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ again Irrfan plays a besotted lover boy. And to help Irrfan get passionately poetic, there's the inimitable Gulzar's poetry that would be used for his character.
Gulzar has apparently written some of his most romantic lines ever for Irrfan to woo Priyanka with. A diehard Gulzar, fan Priyanka can't wait to be wooed with the luscious poetry that Irrfan would be reciting.
Bharadwaj is shooting the film in Kashmir.

“It has made my life... It has opened so many doors for me and my family.”
Freida Pinto
“The dress is John Galliano’s but the jewellery is from India. The ring I am wearing is more than 150 years old.” Freida, who has been named one of the best dressed by Vogue, was worried about only one thing – someone stepping on her blue gown.
Irrfan Khan
“I am extremely happy for Rahman. Today, at the venue, almost every house here in LA listens to his Jai Ho and O Saya. I am feeling very proud to see that his song is being played. I am really thrilled to see an Indian song being played at the Oscars. It’s a great moment for Bollywood and Indian music.”
Anil Kapoor
“I am very excited. I have never been so excited in my life. It’s time for me, the whole team of Slumdog… and every Indian to cheer and celebrate. We are having an ecstatic moment here in LA. I can only say that India has made a clean sweep here. At the moment I can only say ‘Jai ho Hindustan, jai ho India, jai ho Mumbai, jai Maharashtra.’”
