Irrfan Khan, the name which represented India, its efficiency and straddled it globally has now another feather on his wings. The Producers Guild of America (PGA) Awards honored late actor Irrfan Khan during their 2021 edition.
The actor was honored under their ‘In Memoriam’ segment. The awards which are considered as an Oscar bellwether were held virtually on Wednesday.
Khan was among the 21 cine personalities who were remembered during the ceremony’s “In Memoriam” segment.
However, the pre-taped production of the awards committed a gaffe with the actor’s name as it read ‘Irrif Kahn’ instead of Irrfan Khan, reported Variety.
Another typo was spotted when the name of Minari star Steven Yeun, who was one of the presenters at the event, was misspelt as ‘Steven Yuen’.
Khan, who has worked both Bollywood and Hollywood, died in April 2020 at the age of 54 following a two-year-long battle with a rare form of cancer.
In Hollywood, he featured in blockbusters such as Inferno, A Mighty Heart, Life of Pi, Amazing Spider-Man and Jurassic World.
