Irrfan Khan's son Babil Khan says that he does not want to use his father's privilege to get work rather he wishes to evolve with it.
In a statement, he said: “I have experienced privilege in my life, why must I hide from that truth? Instead, I try to stay true to my sense of morality and the values of my upbringing in the use of that privilege.”
“This notion arises within me from the understanding that life gives you privilege as an opportunity and the way you put that opportunity into effect is the test of your character. For instance, instead of using my privilege to fetch me work, I utilize the privilege of baba’s connections through being around and absorbing from people that are immersed in and masters of the craft; then I apply the knowledge gained from those experiences in my auditions and my work. I don’t think the ethical questions regarding privilege are about whether or not you have privilege but rather about how you use it, concluded Babil.”
Babil Khan, who just made his acting debut with Qala, was being compared with father Irrfan Khan after the film. Whereas, he said that he is not trying to be like his father rather he wants a separate recognition as an artist, reports PinkVilla.
