Crazy things the actors sometimes have to learn for their roles!
Irrfan Khan , who is quite a talented and accomplished actor in his own right, is set to learn the art of cutting hair for his role in Shah Rukh Khan’s home production Billoo Barber .
The movie, directed by Priyadarshan , has Irrfan playing the titular protagonist, a barber.
To get into the skin of his character Irrfan will sit with a roadside barber, observe him at work, and learn a few skills of holding scissors and using them from the barber.
Irrfan says he doesn’t want to learn hair-cutting from some elite hair-stylist in a big hotel. He wants to learn it from a roadside barber. And he jokingly adds that once he has learnt it, he might exercise his skill on his co-star, Shah Rukh Khan .
This is the first time Irrfan is working with SRK.
