Irrfan Khan and Mira Nair are all set to team up again for a film almost eight years after The Namesake.
The film is called The Bengali Detective and it is about a middle-aged detective keen to learn contemporary dancing. Irrfan is all set to play a Bengali babu again under Mira's direction as the film is set in Kolkata.
After The Namesake, Mira directed Irrfa in a short film called Kosher, Vegetarian with him and Natalie Portman in the lead. Mira approached Irrfan for The Reluctant Fundamentalist but the actor was not keen on playing a terrorist.
