Babil Khan reveals whether comparisons with father Irrfan Khan obstructed his debut
In a recent interview with Film Companion, Babil Khan expressed his wish for his late father Irrfan Khan to witness his achievements and be proud of him. When asked if comparisons with his father obstructed his acting debut or not, Babil said, “You don’t know you have that passion inside you, you need life experiences to push you towards your passion.”
He further added, “I used to fear his greatness. As a 16 year old when you start realising you want to do something with your life and your father is already a larger-than-life figure… That’s why it took me so long to confront my own passion, my own desire.”
“I wish you were here to see what I have grown up to be, you left before I could make you proud,” Babil said when asked what message he would like to send to his father. I don’t mean to claim I’ve become anything; I’m just talking about the emotion of not being able to show him my work and not being able to watch him smile at what I’ve become. Babil Khan revealed in a recent interview with BBC Asia Network how he does auditions to find job and makes sure he is not abusing his power. I have thought about how I handle my privilege,” he remarked. I conduct auditions but I don’t take advantage of this to get jobs, to get work.”
