After the success of Slumdog Millionaire Irrfan Khan is riding high. He is up for a part in the movie version of “Life of Pi”. Following the film’s success, the Indian actor has become a hit in the international film circuit. Following this trend are Freida Pinto and Dev Patel, who have been offered roles in Woody Allen and M Night Shyamalan’s next fims respectively.
Life of Pi is the best-selling Booker Prize winner of all time and has become a global phenomenon after its 2002 win. It has been translated into 40 languages.
