Irrfan Khan passed away today at a hospital in Mumbai, where he was admitted for colon infection. The 53-year-old actor had been battling cancer since 2018 and his official spokesperson had confirmed on Tuesday that he was under doctor’s observation. Irrfan is survived by his wife Sutapa and sons – Babil and Ayan. Filmmaker Shoojit Sircar penned a condolence note remembering the actor. He said, My dear friend Irfaan. You fought and fought and fought. I will always be proud of you.. we shall meet again.. condolences to Sutapa and Babil.. you too fought, Sutapa you gave everything possible in this fight. Peace and Om shanti. Irfaan Khan salute.”
Irrfan Khan’s last film was ‘Angrezi Medium’, which hit the screens on 13th March but due to lockdown announced later, it stopped playing in the theatres and was released on the OTT Platform- Hotstar.
Irrfan Khan was an extremely talented actor and had a huge fan following. Irrfan’s mere presence in any film could just make the audience glued to the screen.
Some truth are hard to accept. And one such truth is “Nothing is Forever”. But the sad part is that a powerhouse of talent like him has gone too soon. It’s still hard to believe that Irrfan is no more but still he will always remain with us, within us.
