Babil Khan has steadily emerged as one of the most promising actors in Indian cinema, carving a niche with performances that exude depth, authenticity, and artistic flair. With each project, he continues to showcase remarkable versatility that sets him apart from his contemporaries.
He made a stellar debut with Qala, portraying Jagan, a sensitive and complex character grappling with personal and professional struggles. His nuanced performance earned widespread critical acclaim. Babil further demonstrated his acting prowess in Friday Night Plan, effortlessly embodying the fun-loving Dhruv and connecting with younger audiences.
His versatility shone in The Railway Men, where he played Imad Riaz, a key character in the gripping narrative inspired by the tragic 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy. Sharing screen space with R. Madhavan, Kay Kay Menon, and Divyendu Sharma, Babil held his own and contributed to the series’ compelling storytelling.
Babil’s upcoming film Log Out, directed by Amit Golani, promises to reveal yet another facet of his talent. In this thought-provoking narrative, he steps into the role of a modern-day influencer grappling with the complexities of digital fame. The film explores the duality of online success and its impact on mental health and self-worth.
Adding to the excitement, Log Out had its world premiere at the prestigious Mar del Plata International Film Festival in Argentina — the same festival where his father, the legendary Irrfan Khan’s film Qissa, was showcased and earned critical acclaim. Babil’s international debut at the festival marks a poetic continuation of his father’s cinematic legacy.
