"Not hair-styling, mind you. I don't want to learn the barber's art from some posh salon in a 7-star hotel. That kind of hair cutting I know already. I've done it to my kids. The bonafide barbers hold the scissors in a different manner and the way they hold the customer's hair is different. I am actually going to sit with a roadside barber and observe him at work. As soon as I finish learning, you'll be the first person whose hair I'll cut and then probably Shah Rukh Khan, my co-star in Billo Barber."

He has already started shooting for the film. "We complete the film by July." Irrfan is hugely kicked about this co-star. "Shah Rukh is such a sport. He called me and said 'I'll dance in the film while you do the acting.' He's so comfortable in his space. I want to learn that from him. I want to be comfortable in my surroundings. That's the only plan I have for my career." Irrfan was longing to work with Priyadarshan. "I saw his recent film Kanjeevaram. Excellent film. If he has been doing a spate of comedies, it's because that was the market's demand. Billo Barber will take him into a different league. It's a very moving story."

Irrfan admits he had to act restrained in his most recent release Krazzy 4. "When we were shooting, there were moments when I had to hold myself back. They wanted to focus more on the story. Many of my proposed scenes were eliminated. But I've no complaints. Krazzy 4 is popular with kids. I always wanted to do a film that kids would love. I've been doing too many grownup films."

So why doesn't Irrfan direct a film? "Only when it comes naturally to me. I'll only direct when I find a story so compelling that I want to share it with the audience. It may come very soon," signs off Irrfan.
