Irrfan plays a cop in the movie.

A source says, “Irrfan was given 48 hours off to attend the film festival in Toronto. He flew from Lithuania to attend it. However, he has now asked the makers of the Japanese TV show for some more time to fly to India, and promote his film with Aishwarya.”

We tried reaching Irrfan, but he remained unavailable for a comment.
