pie i was just gonna say it really is for me he he's so beautiful in that movie and his narration and then the final moments there's no one who would have done the the the sensitivity and the humanness that he brought to that character brennan frazier i actually love brennan frazier in the same conversation as earphone no exactly but i don't use him to mock i actually like brennan frazier if i'm can appearing in danie boil's multiple academy award-winning film slumdog millionaire starring anglies oscar decorated life of pie i suppose in the end the whole of life becomes an act of letting go and featuring in mark webb's blockbuster the amazing spider we're not finished oh yeah he wasn't that's where enough are you gonna find the people's volunteer to watch as far as anyone's concerned is for a winter full shot but cairn has been catching the eye of directors in the west since his first international debut in mirrornair's 2006 film the namesake you know i feel a special kinship with google more than with any other writer soon after he was cast along side angeline a jolly in michael winterbottom's retelling of the kidnapping and murder of u.s journalist daniel no i never saw that i would love to see that no a mighty heart is what it's called what did he say is not involved but cairn's success is not limited to the silver screen in the u.s in his native india he is a household name countered among bollywood's leading men he should be a household name everywhere always that of a typical indian hero with more than 50 domestic films to his name his popular performances include modest characters from a village barba retired olympic athlete turned rebel helping him win scores of awards for his talents along the way this month on talk asia we're in mumbai at the home of internationally acclaimed bollywood star ifan khan i miss him so much so much if like we had started the channel three years earlier i know we might have had the opportunity to speak with him thank you you are one of india's best known exports to hollywood uh one of those rare bollywood stars with global appeal is this something that you set out to achieve i never thought of it never occurred in my mind that i could go there and i could work in those films but definitely in india i was looking kind of my kind of work where i could find myself where i could enjoy telling a story that was definitely a quest and uh it'll manifest in getting work in hollywood that i never imagined i never thought about it it just had happened automatically because it's one thing to be a big star in bollywood let alone make a name for yourself you know in the west i'm really fortunate you know i don't know what is the formula of that well what is the secret but i'm not going to tell you now is there any resentment towards your success here in india it's not a resentment it never was a resentment you know see the industry is uh they are looking for new talent all the time it's up to the talent whether they want they want themselves to be incorporated in that kind of story telling in this other part where you you have to make profit out of it so i've been very conscious of uh picking up stories which are viable so that's why you know i was not uh i could i could survive and i could i could convince people that you know and i could make few people uh easy with my own existence that you know i'm there i'll make money for you but i'll do my kind of work well i want to take you back to your beginnings you were the eldest son in an aristocratic muslim family from draupor your family didn't allow you to watch film and yet you were drawn to this medium yeah why is that i don't know it was a mystery i in my in my village where i'm from talk there was a theater uh besides our my my aunt's house so we used to go there and there was a gatekeeper who was also woman so you know we used to request her can we go inside can we go inside so she used to you know just let us in for 10 15 minutes and we used to watch the cinema and there was something you know which used to capture us and i thought this is something mysterious this is something i would like to do but i was very shy very very shy and i was not i was very thin and i was dark there was all everything which was against being an actor you know because i would think that if you were shy yeah acting wouldn't be the job for you yeah and also you'd be surprised films which are which takes you out of your life and gives you a kind of uh dream world for for for hours and for two hours and and make you make you forget about your own world so we and we have uh actors which are so-called good-looking smart you know pretty faces so i had nothing of that so i had not true many doubts about myself but there's a kind of drive which i couldn't shed well i i read somewhere that you said i was trying to connect to something that could make me feel more complete does someone say that would take a lifelong journey i was i was looking for engagement something which can engage me when i don't feel bored i started doing certain things and i i put a lot of a lot of hard work in that it was a training for air conditioning so i did uh you know with full sincerity and seriousness i did the training but then when i started going for practicals you know door to door that was a trauma and showing any conditions not for you yeah it was very very important tell me about your years at the national school of drama oh that was fantastic first thing that i was not eligible when i when i when i filled the form of national school of drama and uh my practical experience was not enough but i was so so compelled and so driven to get admission there i just you know i just lied i you know i failed you know names which i didn't do also not uncommon i don't know i got the admission especially back in the day not uncommon at all formula of acting and i started acting and so i i struggled there you know to understand and i used to question back in the day nobody could check yeah you get the internet now slowly slowly i i realized that it's it's you are your own teacher you have to find this not a one formula or one method which can make you act well you graduated and did many tv roles that you found those to be boring and at your work or you quit tv i did and the tv gave me a lot of practice and but that was a time when private channels were just coming in india and soaps of you know earlier we had series of 13 episodes or 26 episodes now there were series which are going on for 500 episodes 600 episodes so what what was happening in that that you you do one scene and if the the you know the content of the scene uh if the if liked by audience then what the producer and director used to do they used to keep repeating that pattern again and again in different episodes in different ways so i was getting you know really bored and then i started directing so i thought you know direction needs much more work than actor so it will engage me more you know it will keep me busy so i did few few episodes but then suddenly you know i out of the blue i got a chance which i was waiting for the warrior in the warrior yeah that changed my life so the film what film did asif kappadia was directing warrior he said don't do anything don't even say lines i just i just wanted to be in the situation and see where it takes me and i thought this is something this is what i was looking for as an actor and that was the time i i decided i am not going to produce i'm not going to direct television that's the first time i realized that life is showing me a direction so i should leave myself to that and see what happens a mighty heart which of course is the story about the kidnapping and murder of tender pearl were there any issues as an indian playing a fecustalian oh oh that's it that's a part one i guess oh sorry i didn't i i was ready to listen to your fun more me too did is there a video out there of your fun in in the soap operas because i'd love to see that i want to see that me too i kind of want to see that i would like to see that your fun in the beginning before he's your fun con in a soap opera i agree that's i know i know there's still a thing but it's not really the stepping stone that it used to be oh not at all because it used to be a stepping stone it it was it's not at all i know that directly from a man who's a friend of mine who directed soaps for 25 years one soap in particular and not only are there less soaps but they're viewed no differently as far as tv and film you might as well have been doing theater the whole time they see a soap opera on your resume you could have won a freaking Emmy for your soap opera don't care yeah and it used to be a big deal yeah yeah two things he said that i thought were interesting uh one was it was interesting that he brought up one of the typical things nois brought this up too that starting out that american actors don't ever have to think about in the same way and she it either didn't register or she just went past it but when he mentioned that he was dark dark yeah and then he's mentioned something else about his script selection and if he were around i'd want to ask him this because he said that he chose stories that were viable so in his selection it was more than just great storytelling i wonder how many stories he read that he thought the story itself was a magnificent story but he didn't find it to have a box office viability and so he he gave both it had to be a great story but it also had to have some semblance of box office viability for him to invest himself enough into it which is a an idea for me that i don't would never consider but it makes you wonder ought you consider that especially when you're at the level that he was at you you only have to consider that when you're at this exactly when you're at that level um and how often did he make decisions because you know he did there were times he knew he had to do something and box office viability had didn't matter whatsoever yeah yeah and i he was i know he turned down inception because no one wanted yeah him an inception and he turned it down i think to do the lunchbox which i'm obviously i'm glad i wish i could have worked out both both because i think more people would have known the wonderful man and actor that is irfan yeah if he was in that and it would have been a meaty role yeah as opposed to you know just uh in like Jurassic World where he's the the the owner of the park or whatever right um the or no it would have been a substantial his medias in Hollywood it was obviously the life of pie which a lot of people saw yeah but nothing i mean everybody thought of him here as a very recognizable supporting actor at best as far as the roles that he got not somebody who could carry a film not not who you actually was exactly was one of the greatest actors of all time right um and which is obviously there's a ton of actors in india and around the world that yeah don't realize that yeah of course but he's he's one of my favorites and i'm so sad he's gone yeah because i i love the man and i love his acting yeah he is one of the big losses of all time in cinema so 50 something is way too young yeah you can you can go back to the losses of james dean heath ledger philip seymour hoffman um earphones in that category somebody like 50s it's sickening it makes you sad to think how many more years of work you could have had ahead of him how many more films you could have made his basically half his life's work was cut short that's very sad it is anyways i know there's a bunch of his that we need to co-op cobs single i know is one black list is it blacklist i think that's with rishi something me no no and then there's um life in a metro yes that uh we have not seen recommend and of course anybody got those soaps just a clip we'd love to see a clip please let us know what our next earphone film should i want to get to one soon yeah i'm sick of not seeing his face yeah uh so let us know which i should be down below
