BREAKING: Actor Irrfan Khan admitted in ICU

Actor Irrfan Khan, who recently returned to acting after his 2 years of battle against neuroendocrine tumour since 2018, has been admitted to an ICU at a Mumbai hospital and is currently under doctor's observation. The 53-year-old actor had fallen ill suddenly on Tuesday, and was rushed to the hospital due to his rapidly deteriorating health.

The official statement released by Irrfan Khan’s spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday evening that the actor is in the hospital battling a colon infection. “Yes, it is true that Irrfan khan is admitted to ICU at Kokilaben in Mumbai because of a colon infection. We would keep everyone updated. He is under doctor’s observation. His strength and courage have helped him battle and fight so far and we are sure with his tremendous willpower and prayers of all his well-wishers, he will recover soon”, read the statement.

It may be noted that Irrfan’s mother Saeeda Begum passed away in Jaipur, a week ago. The actor paid his last respects to his mother through a video conference, due to coronavirus lockdown restrictions in India.

On the work front, the actor is yet to sign any new movie.
