Irrfan Khan is the man of the moment.

After getting rave reviews for his film, The Namesake and Life In A... Metro, the actor is all set to wow Cannes with his new film, A Mighty Heart.

The film sees him costar with Hollywood stunner Angelina Jolie and Dan Futterman. Directed by British director Michael Winterbottom, the film is about the life of murdered Wall Street journalist Daniel Pearl.

Major parts of the film were shot in India last year.
