Within two days, the Hindi film industry has lost two of its most cherished actors Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor. Ironically both of them died due to cancer. Their death has left a void that won’t be fulfilled ever. While condolences and tribute poured in from all the corners of the world, dairy giant Amul and Mumbai Police paid a heartfelt tribute to both the departed souls in their own special way.
Amul shared a wonderful collage of the Irrfan’s various characters from his hit films like ‘The Lunchbox’, ‘Angrezi Medium’, ‘Paan Singh Tomar’ amongst others. Their caption read, “Tribute to one of our finest actors…” Whereas the tag on their creative read, “Tumko yaad rakhenge guru hum….”
