Irrfan Khan, Star Of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ And ‘Life Of Pi’, Dead At 53

After an unsatisfying early career in Indian TV serials and films (his acting was too subtle and his looks too unconventional for a traditional Bollywood lead), he found acclaim in the British-Indian co-production The Warrior and settled into a career of Bollywood character parts and major roles in Indian art cinema. In the ’00s, his Western career went into high gear as he played the policeman in Slumdog Millionaire, the adult Piscine in Life of Pi, and the owner of the Jurassic World park. – BBC
