Today recalling the days when he was shooting ‘Piku’ with Irrfan, Shoojit told IANS, “On the last few days of his schedule he would say, ‘dada can’t we go on shooting like this. I am feeling like a free bird, I don’t want this moment to stop. Please aap kuch bhi kara lo mujhse (you make me do anything). I can’t explain this feeling. Can’t we just go on and on?'”

Anushka Sharma took to her Instagram stories and remembering the late actor she wrote, “A legendary figure of the industry! You will always be missed and your legacy will live on forever.”

Ayushmann Khurrana also shared a picture of the late actor and wrote, “You’ll always be remembered.”

Vicky Kaushal simply shared a lovely picture of Irrfan. Perhaps words can’t sum up what we all are feeling today.

Irrfan breathed his last on April 29 last year after suffering colon infection. He had also battled neuroendocrine cancer for over two years.
