Actor Irrfan Khan, who is increasingly making inroads into Hollywood with projects such as A Mighty God, Slumdog Millionaire and an American television show, says being an international actor gives him a high.

“It’s always an inner wish of every actor to reach out to maximum audiences. I am lucky that the western world chooses me to play roles in their movies and television, whatever language it may be. It gives me a high to be an international actor with quality work,” he said.

At the moment, the actor is gearing up for the release of Right Yaaa Wrong, produced by Subhash Ghai. Irrfan said he had to unlearn acting for the film, that is slated to release Friday. “I had to unlearn acting and act as a real man behind dramatic situations in the life of this cop, who has to go against his best friend to arrest him. I learnt how to go through heavy dramatic emotions with controlled calmness. Every scene was a question to me as an actor,” he said.
