“Like anyone else, Babil is allowed to have difficult days – and this was one of them,” the statement read. “We want to reassure all his well-wishers that he is safe."
Pooja Bhatt took to Instagram to share a heartfelt note for Irrfan, reminiscing about their 2005 film 'Rog', which was penned by her father, Mahesh Bhatt.
The actress also said she liked to have a plan in place when it came to Taimur's diet.
In Angrezi Medium, the actor will appear alongside Kareen Kapoor Khan who will play a cop, and Pataakha fame actor Radhika Madan who will play his daughter.
Actor Pankaj Tripathi will be seen making a guest appearance in Irrfan's upcoming film Angrezi Medium.
A video of Irrfan showing him posing with fans who had come to see him from the sets of Angrezi Medium is circulating on social media and is going viral.
While Kareena Kapoor Khan will play the female lead opposite Irrfan, Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota actor Radhika Madaan will play their daughter.
