On the international front, he was last seen in the hugely successfulJurassic World, which released a few months ago. Content-oriented cinema has always been the actor's forte. Irrfan plays a CBI officer inTalvar, which also stars Konkona Sensharma and Neeraj Kabi. The film, which is based on the Aarushi Talwar murder case, adopts Akira Kurosawa'sRashomonstyle of narration.
