“Irrfan didn’t make a joke of himself like Anil Kapoor did in Mission: Impossible 4. His role was dignified and I felt proud while watching him do it so well, though his accent was a bit weird,” says film buff Varun Verma.
Rumour has it that Irrfan even might be part of the sequel. Studio sources say, “Irrfan might make a comeback in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 as his character is saved by Spiderman in this film.”

Irrfan to star in the Spider-Man sequel? The actor, who met director Marc Webb at the film’s LA premiere recently, refuses to confirm his being part of the sequel.
He says, “Though Marc has discussed a possibility of a sequel, we haven’t signed anything yet. I am under a non-disclosure agreement so I can’t confirm anything now.”
