Irrfan Khan was not just a name in the entertainment world, rather he was an institution of talents. His debut performance in Mira Nair’s Salaam Bombay was not just appreciated by the critics but had also opened the gates of opportunities for him. He had a sense of versatility in his acting, whether it is ‘Miya Maqbool’ in the film, Maqbool or ‘Roohdaar’ in Haider, he had done complete justice to all his on-screen characters. It has been more than a month that the actor had left everyone for his heavenly abode but we still have not come in terms with his untimely death.
After Irrfan Khan’s death, his son, Babil Khan has been sharing throwback pictures of his late father making sure that his memories never fade away. On June 6, 2020, Babil took to his Instagram handle and shared a monochrome picture of his late father. Along with the picture, he wrote a heart-melting note which can be read as “He had this strange understanding of rain. I cannot compare it to anything that I have ever experienced. He could only explain it to me through the limits within what words would let him, but there was a connection that I cannot envelop even in the most beautiful language; only the desert could show, oh my god, what the rain did to him.”
The Maqbool actor was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumour in March 2018, and a few days later, he had left for London for his treatment. He had returned in February 2019 for shooting the film, Angrezi Medium, and had flown back to London for another surgery. He had returned to India in September 2019 hail and hearty, but on April 28, 2020, the actor was admitted to Mumbai’s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani hospital due to colon infection and was kept in ICU. On April 29, 2020, the actor had breathed his last and had bid adieu to his loved ones.
