Irrfan has an observation about the younger generation who are impulsive decision makers when it comes to relationships. According to him, today’s generation gets into a relationship very fast and then they break up even faster. He remarked, "Today's generation is more impulsive than what we were. There is no peace in their life and most of them are impulsive decision makers. With time, they will all learn the importance of having that one special person with whom they can spend the rest of their life."
