Yesterday was late actor Irrfan Khan's birthday and his son Babil shared a heartfelt video for his father on his social media.
Last year, 2020 in June a versatile and talented actor was taken away from us because of Cancer. Irrfan Khan had been struggling with cancer for a while and was getting treated in the foreign for it. But last year he took his last breath and left a big hole behind him. With his films as his legacy fans grieved the loss of the actor. Yesterday would have marked his 54th birthday. Fans and many Bollywood celebrities remembered the actor on his birth anniversary in their own ways. His death felt like a personal loss to everyone and his birthday seems like the best day to celebrate him.
Irrfan khan's son Babil shared an old video of his on his Instagram with the caption, "You never identified with institutions such as contractual marriage and birthday celebrations. Perhaps, that is why I don’t remember anyone’s birthdays because you never remembered mine and never encouraged me to remember yours. It was just normal to us what seemed absurd from the outside, we celebrated everyday (bringing personal experiential authenticity to the cliche). On the occasion, Mamma would have to remind us both; but this time I could not forget yours if I tried.
It’s your birthday Baba. Shoutout to all the technologically inept parents, notice that they did not finish saying that they miss me."
He was not just an actor but an artist who would be deeply missed but live on forever through his work. This video shared by Babil will well you up and remind you of the kind of person he was.
