Irrfan
Khan
was
diagnosed
with
neuroendocrine
tumor
and
went
to
the
UK
to
undergo
cancer
treatment.
Thankfully,
he
fought
off
the
deadly
disease
and
returned
to
India
last
week
and
also
started
the
shoot
of
his
upcoming
movie
Angrezi
Medium.
Irrfan
Khan's
wife
Sutapa
Sikdar
has
penned
a
heartfelt
letter
to
thank
well-wishers
after
the
actor's
recovery
from
neuroendocrine
tumour,
recalling
how
her
family
measured
the
past
one
year
in
both
"pain
and
hope".
Irrfan,
who
had
opened
up
about
his
diagnosis
in
March
last
year,
is
back
to
work
after
his
treatment
abroad.
"Longest
year
of
our
life.
Time
was
never
measured
with
pain
and
hope
at
the
same
time
ever.
While
we
take
our
baby
steps
back
to
work,
to
life,
I
am
submerged
in
prayers,
wishes
and
faith
from
friends,
relatives,
strangers
and
a
connection
with
the
universe
which
gives
us
a
small
chance
for
this
new
start," she
wrote
on
Facebook
last
Friday.
The
actor-producer,
who
met
Irrfan
while
studying
at
the
National
School
of
Drama
(NSD),
said
it
was
the
prayer
of
well-wishers,
both
known
and
unknown,
that
kept
her
going
in
this
difficult
period
of
life.
"It
seems
unbelievable...
Never
ever
I
realised
the
meaning
of
the
word
unpredictable
so
well
Never
ever
I
could
feel
people's
wishes
on
my
bones,
my
breath
(and)
my
heartbeat,
which
helped
me
to
stay
focused
and
kicking.
I
can't
take
names
because
there
are
names
and
there
are
names.
I
don't
even
know
who
played
angels."
Sutapa
said
they
are
grateful
as
the
''dance
and
song
of
life
continues".
"Thank
you
for
believing
in
your
prayers," she
added.
Irrfan
has
begun
shooting
for
"Angrezi
Medium",
the
sequel
to
his
2017
sleeper
hit
"Hindi
Medium".
