Sutapa Sikdar said in a recent interview how their lives might have turned out differently if Irrfan hadn't turned down the opportunity to star in "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi."

Sutapa Sikdar also thanked the show and its creators, pointing out that their choice allowed Irrfan to pursue other acting opportunities around the world and become a well-known actor who has been recognized for his outstanding performances in critically acclaimed films and television series.

Irrfan Khan achieved extraordinary success in both Bollywood and Hollywood thanks to his adaptable acting abilities and unwavering commitment to his craft. His stellar roles in movies such as "The Lunchbox," "Life of Pi," and "The Namesake," among others, cemented his stature as one of the world's most talented actors.

The acknowledgement made by Sutapa Sikdar serves as a reminder of the various ways in which seemingly insignificant choices may mold lives, resulting in unexpected outcomes and ultimate success in the entertainment sector.
