Mumbai: Irrfan Khan explained the reason behind rejected the movie with Spielberg and said that the character which he provided me was having zero scopes.

Irrfan Khan who is having a parallel career in both Bollywood and Hollywood earlier confessed that he rejected Steven Speilberg movie as he felt the character was not substantial. Now he clearly explained the reason. He said, “Indian cinema is getting bigger each day.

Be it content wise or business wise. Even Hollywood is looking for Indian actors. American movie industry always prefers talent. So they are clearly looking for India. Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone travel outside Bollywood due to this reason. I have completed Ron Howard’s Inferno with Tom Hanks.

Irrfan Khan has given a clarity behind this. He said, I rejected the movie with Spielberg as I felt the character which he provided me was having zero scopes. As an actor, I expect the character should have enough meat. Else I will say NO.

Who doesn’t want to work with Speilberg? I am at a stage in my career where I am trying my best to surprise my audience with every role and give them some. I am looking forward to having some path breaking character.”
