Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Irrfan's rare full commercial masala villain era, proving he could play Bollywood big while maintaining his subtlety. The casting against type still confuses people.
The film was shot in 2008 but delayed two years; critics noted it felt dated on release, which somehow makes its time-capsule appeal stronger now.
