Babil Khan's heart-touching message for father Irrfan Khan says, ''loved being a father more than being an actor''; Fans are in awe

One of Bollywood's most adored performers was Irrfan Khan. His sad death in 2020 shook the whole country. His son Babil Khan and his wife Sutapa Sikdar occasionally post amusing tales to social media. Babil, who made his acting debut in 2022, posted a nostalgic photo of his late father on Instagram on Wednesday morning. He also wrote a lengthy statement in remembrance of Irrfan along with it.

Babil frequently displays his affection for his father in his wonderful postings. The aspiring actor said how Irrfan 'loved being a father more than being an actor' in the most recent one. He mentioned missing the comedian from Piku's laughing. His note read, "Those eyes that watch a validation which you have already explored to spiritually absorb through internal means rather than the external illusions of self-worth, i’d blame your stubborn determination of committing a lifetime to transcending from innate survival instincts to a journey engraved in cultivating your creative ‘intuitions’, through means greater than 'understanding and intellect', and yet in your actions towards the compulsion of celebrity you were truthfully eager to live your/the physical experience of the very ironic phenomenon; as if even with the awareness of what was going to happen, you believed in the uncertainties of the known."

Babil continued, "And that for me is the seemingly unachievable mantle I want to hold in relation to the craft of acting; to be aware that a story might have a systematically planned narrative but the magic is the ability to create (through surrender) within the mechanics of artificiality, I want that enlightenment of process so dear in my palms. I miss when you used to look at Ayaan and I with that glint in your eye as if nothing else existed, even after you had achieved more than a man could ask from himself, just in those moments I realised you loved being a father more than being an actor, and imagine that after being the best actor in the world. It makes me feel like I didn’t value your concern enough. I miss our laughter baba."

Fans of Babil were moved to tears by his kind post. They could be seen leaving encouraging remarks on his page. A fan wrote, "He would be so proud of you Babil. I wanna see you thrive in this industry just like your baba did. He was an amazing actor he still is for sure." Another fan wrote, "your sadness saddens me. We all miss him so much."

In the meanwhile, Babil made his Qala debut alongside Triptii Dimri. He will thereafter appear in the television series 'The Railway Men.'
