In a recent interview, Angrezi Medium director Homi Adajania spoke about how he was always clear that he wanted to make the film only with Irrfan Khan and how he's the kind of actor who makes his presence felt even when he's not around.

Irrfan Khan's much-awaited film, Angrezi Medium, is just about to hit theatres and the film has already created a lot of buzz about the sweet story between a father and his daughter. Directed by Home Adajania, who has also directed films like Cocktail and Finding Fanny, Angrezi Medium is touted to be Irrfan Khan's comeback film after a sabbatical of over a year.
In a candid chat with Hindustan Times, Homi Adajania revealed that he only ever wanted to make Angrezi Medium with Irrfan. He shares, "While the making of the movie, Irrfan was undergoing treatment, so there would be good days and bad days. There was an uncertainty about his energy levels, considering how difficult shoots can be. I did put everything on hold and decided to wait for him to make this. Dinoo (Dinesh Vijan, producer) and I were very clear that Angrezi Medium would be made with Irrfan only. And I took the risk, knowing that it would be an experience that my crew and I would cherish."
