Entertainment News Today, May 9: It’s been 10 days since actor Irrfan Khan passed away but the realisation of his absence has not still sunken in. It’s even more difficult for people who worked with him or got to know him personally at any level.

After posting a beautiful picture from the sets of the film, the actor once again reminisced the happy times spent with her ‘dear friend’ and shared an unseen video from the Piku-sets.
