Actor Irrfan Khan says he is open to playing former President late APJ Abdul Kalam on the silver screen.
There have been reports that the "Piku" star is being considered for the role of Kalam in a new film.
"Who? I am not approached for the film. I would love to do it. It's a historic character, who wouldn't like to play? It depends on who is making it. I think an actor is incomplete without a director," Irrfan told reporters here at the trailer launch of "Madaari".
Reportedly, Marathi filmmaker Pramod Gore is toying with the idea of producing a Hindi film on the 'Missile Man' of India.
