Babil on Irrfan's death
Earlier, in an interview with The Lallantop, Babil revealed how his father’s death affected him both personally and professionally. “Some people said I was using my father’s death to launch my acting career. If that were true, I wouldn’t still be giving auditions today. I was sharing love because we were flooded with it from everyone. I had to honour that,” he said.
Irrfan Khan breathed his last on April 29, 2020, in Mumbai at the age of 53, after a colon infection. He was diagnosed with a rare neuroendocrine tumour (NET) in 2018, for which he received treatment in London.
Apart from being popular in India, he earned fame and recognition worldwide for his Hollywood films like Slumdog Millionaire, Life of Pi, and Jurassic World, leaving behind an enduring legacy.
