Shoojit Sircar found Irrfan Khan `terrific` in Meghna Gulzar's `Talvar`. The filmmaker says that he is a `superstar` and calls him `one of the best actor" in the entertainment industry.

Irrfan, who was last seen onscreen in `Jazbaa` alongside Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, played the role of CBI officer Arun Kumar in `Talvar`, which was based on the 2008 murder of 14-year-old Aarushi Talwar and her family's domestic servant Hemraj.

Irrfan, who worked with Sircar in comedy-drama film `Piku`, took to Twitter on Friday to share a quote of Sircar.


`@ShoojitSircar: #Talvar ..and @irrfan_k you r just terrific..Undoubtedly you are one of the best actor we have..And you are my superstar too,` he tweeted.

Irrfan will also be seen in Hollywood film `Inferno` alongside Tom Hanks.

Directed by Ron Howard, the thriller is set to release on October 14 next year.
