Cinema aside, Indian fashion lost a dear muse: Irrfan Khan’s stylist pens emotional note

Bhansali revealed she had worked with Irrfan on a couple of looks for the movie Piku. But it was during Hindi Medium that she “discovered how much fashion holds dear to him”.

Black won’t be as bold without him now,” she further wrote.
