Ever since Irrfan Khan tweeted about the ‘rare disease’ afflicting him, friends and fans have been expressing their concerns about the health of the talented actor.

Though Irrfan said that he will share the details of the disease in a few days once there’s a conclusive diagnosis, rumours about him suffering from brain cancer and being admitted to Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital began circulating on social media.

After hospital officials refuted the rumours, Irrfan’s wife Sutapa Sikdar has now issued a statement regarding her husband’s health.

I apologise for not answering calls msgs, but I want all of you to know I am truly humbled indebted forever for the wishes prayers and concern from all over the world.” She even wrote, “Let’s not waste our precious energies to only know what it is.
