The late actor Irrfan Khan’s son, actor Babil Khan, wrote on Instagram on Wednesday about how much his father loved his family as well as working. Babil wrote about how he wishes to emulate so many traits of his father in a lengthy, heartfelt article.
Actor Irrfan, who was well-known, died in April 2020 after a battle with cancer. Sons Babil and Ayaan, as well as his wife Sutapa, are left behind.
Irrfan Khan was pictured by Babil Khan admiring a prize while holding it in his hands. The caption stated,“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…”
The caption further added, “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.”
Babil mentioned how Irrfan looked at his child, “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.”
With the 2022 Netflix film Qala, Babil Khan marked his acting debut. His performance was praised highly.
