Irrfan Khan’s Son Babil Shares Picture From His Chemotherapy Days And a Hand-Written Note by Actor

Babil Khan remembers his 'best friend' and the 'best father' who was always intrigued by the 'furthest parts of a blackhole singularity' and who wanted to build himself a study table to write even while his chemotherapy sessions were going on.

Late actor Irrfan Khan’s son Babil Khan made a special post on Instagram to celebrate the legacy of his father on his first death anniversary. Irrfan passed away a year back after battling cancer for over two years. In his post, Babil dropped a never-seen-before picture from his chemotherapy days in which he is seen constructing a study table for himself that his son reveals was meant for him to write his day-to-day journals.

“Chemo burns you from the inside, so to find joy in the simple things, like building your own table to write your own journals. There is a purity, I have not yet discovered. There is a legacy that has already been concluded by my Baba himself. A full stop. Nobody can ever replace him. Nobody will ever be able to,” writes Babil in his post. He goes on to remember the ‘best friend’ and the ‘best father’ in the world, and wishes to be with him in travelling to the ‘furthest parts of a blackhole singularity’ he was always intrigued by.

In another post on Instagram, the aspiring actor shared the picture of a hand-written note by his father in which he talked about experiencing the best days of his life in London. Irrfan wrote about how he was finally able to the ‘world of sensations and clear unburdened mind’. The late actor’s note read: “The most amazing period of my life in London 25 Jan 2018. The period of realisation of inner mechanism and the experience of magic which lays on the other side of the conditioned mind. The world of sensations and clear unburdened mind.” (sic)
