It’s my love and respect for Irrfan and my friendship with Dinu (Dinesh Vijan) that made me say ‘yes’ to it. I always wanted to work with Irrfan and when Dinu offered me this role; I immediately agreed even though it’s just a cameo role,” reports Indo Asian News Service. “He is my lucky mascot; I find a way to include him in my films. He’s a huge admirer of Irrfan and was more than happy to lend himself in a small way,” Vijan told the Indian Express. Produced by Vijan and directed by Homi Adajania, Angrezi Medium will revolve around Irrfan’s on-screen daughter who goes to London for higher studies. While  Kareena Kapoor Khan h as been reportedly signed for a pivotal role,  Pataakha  actor Radhika Madan is playing his daughter in the film. Before Angrezi Medium, Pankaj has collaborated with Dinesh for last year’s horror-comedy _Stree_ and this year’s  Luka Chuppi.   (With inputs from Indo Asian News Service)
