Irrfan Khan is no longer with us, yet he is alive in our hearts with his soulful and unforgettable performance in several Bollywood movies. Babil Khan, the late actor's son, frequently shares old, unseen photos of his father to keep his legacy alive. His posts are often followed by long, passionate paragraphs dedicated to his father. Babil shared another photo of the legendary actor on his death anniversary today, and his long heartfelt statement will leave fans in tears.
In a picture shared by Babil, Irrfan Khan can be seen sitting on a boat dressed casually in red pants, purple shirt paired with a black jacket and a colourful beanie. Sharing the picture, the Qala actor wrote a heartfelt note that read, “Dear baba, I’m trying to remember that perfume you wore, when we travelled north to watch lights dance in Norway. I remember exactly, the feeling of your smell, but I can’t remember the materialism of it. I remember the sensation on my fingertips when you spread my palms to tell my fortunes but it frightens me to forget your playful pinch on my nostrils. I have begged, and I have cried to the heavens, to let not my body forget yet; for my soul is not ready to forfeit. I am not ready to move on. And I am alright with the idea that possibly I will never be, we were never governed by logic. You and I, singular and cosmic. Everything is, and yet it is not; You’re a perfect teardrop in my asylum. I was mindful and yet I forgot, my intonations of violence. You still breathe, in my thoughts; and our institutions of madness. I miss that, what I fought; your explorations of silence. A creation of yours, Babil.”
On April 29, 2020, Irrfan passed away. Irrfan was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumor in 2018.
