Irrfan to turn Banker
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,May 25 2011]
After his humour outing with Anees BazmeeÂs ÂThank YouÂ, talented actor Irrfan Khan is back to serious stuff And that too a project from overseasÂ
Irrfan said to have been considered for a movie titled ÂBanker To The Poor which will be helmed by Italian filmmaker Marco Amenta. The movie is in fact inspired from a novel with the same name that is based on the Bangladeshi Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus.
Yes, Irrfan will be playing the title role... The movie revolves around the protagonist, Yunus the eminent banker, and how he materialised his dream of bringing a bank which caters to monetary needs of the poorest of the poor. It will also show how Yunus worked towards empowering the poor, helped them be financially stable, which in turn enhanced the Bangladeshi economy.
