character roles, Irrfan said: "Yes, lots of actresses today want to work more in offbeat cinema. Deepika did it in Piku. Most actresses would say 'This film does not have dancing or singing, then why should I do it?' But see, Deepika is a top star and she did it beautifully."
"Actresses want to do performances...like Priyanka (Chopra), who is doing an international TV show, where she only needs to act. Actresses are getting ambitious about doing great performances, which is a good sign," added the Piku actor, who was in Delhi to promote Jazbaa along with Aishwarya.
Irrfan, who was last seen playing a police officer in Talvar, will be seen essaying the role of a suspended inspector in Jazbaa, directed by Sanjay Gupta. He says his new film is "an edge of the seat thriller".
"In Jazbaa I wasn't looking for a challenge, I was looking for entertainment...I usually do films which urge people to think about and see something new. This film has a unique concept. Also, Jazbaa is a 'paisa vasool' film. It is an edge of the seat thriller," Irrfan said. Jazbaa, which also stars veteran actress Shabana Azmi, Jackie Shroff among others is hitting the screens on Friday.
