Julia Roberts Impressed By Irrfan Khans Acting

with ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ sweeping 8 Oscars, Bollywood has surely become the cynosure of Hollywood! The latest accolade came from Hollywood’s ‘Pretty Woman’ Julia Roberts who was all praise for the Irrfan Khan at the Oscars. According to a star-struck Irrfan "On the day after the Oscars ceremony, we were doing a photo-feature for a magazine when I was told Julia Roberts was close by, and asked if I would like to meet her? I said she didn`t know me. But I was told she knew about my work and I ran to meet her. It turned out Julia had seen ‘The Name-sake’ very recently. She was genuinely pleased to meet me. `What a beautiful film you`ve given us,` she said. I swooned" as quoted by a newspaper.

Irrfan Khan was completely bowled over by the lissome lady’s compliments. Irrfan recalled that he was won over by Julia’s modesty that praised him for the film as well as India as a country.Irrfan Khan added " She was as cheerful and warm and full of compassion as she appears on screen. But I could`ve killed myself for not carrying DVDs of my other films, so I could give them to Julia. I`m so badly organised." Nevertheless, It appears that the ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ Oscars are proving auspicious for the Indian film industry as recognition is pouring in from everywhere.
