Radhika, who played the role of Irrfan Khan's daughter in Homi Adajania's film Angrezi Medium, shared a warm picture of hugging Irrfan Khan. Remembering Irrfan Khan, Radhika borrowed the first line from the song Laadki by the music composer duo Sachin-Jigar, and wrote, "Teri laadki mai," and dropped a heart emoticon. In the picture, Irrfan Khan can be seen kissing Radhika's head as she hugs him. Take a look:
Irrfan was diagnosed with colon infection and died in a Mumbai hospital on April 29. He also battled neuroendocrine tumour for two years.
The entire country was heartbroken upon his death and even Radhika shared a note in his memory. “I dont know what to say... my heart aches when i write this. He was one of the strongest people i knew, a fighter. I am really grateful that our paths crossed in this lifetime. He is and will always be an inspiration to me and many.A legend. The man who changed the wave of the indian film industry.May his soul rest in peace. Love you irrfan sir. It was a privilege knowing you,” she captioned the post.
Irrfan’s family including his wife Sutapa Sikdar and son Babil, often share throwback pictures of the actor. As monsoon hit Mumbai, Babil recalled how connected his late father was with the rain. Babil said nothing matches up to the experience of listening to his father passionately talking about rain. “He had this strange understanding of rain. I cannot compare it to anything that I have ever experienced. He could only explain it to me through the limits within what words would let him, but there was a connection that I cannot envelop even in the most beautiful language; only the desert could show, oh my god, what the rain did to him,” he wrote on Instagram alongside a photograph of Irrfan clicked with a camel in a desert.
