"Somebody told me that to be an actor you must know horse riding... So whenever I went to ride (or learn to ride -- which I didn't at that time), I made it a point that when I sat on the horse...

On the work front, Irrfan's "Hindi Medium" is doing brisk business courtesy its positive word-of-mouth publicity.
