Indian actor Irrfan Khan, who starred in movies like Slumdog Millionaire and Life of Pi, dies at 53
Irrfan was a strong soul, someone who fought till the very end and always inspired everyone who came close to him, his publicist said. Khan was among the first Indian actors to make a consistent mark in Western cinema, following in the footsteps of crossover pioneers such as Saeed Jaffrey, Roshan Seth and Om Puri.
