\"Vipin Irrfan Khan<\/a>\u2019s last film, Angrezi Medium, released on March 13, 2020, a heartwarming story of a father and daughter that turned out to be his cinematic farewell. Just weeks later, on April 29, 2020, the legendary actor passed away due to a neuroendocrine tumour, leaving behind a void in Indian cinema that still feels impossible to fill.
Even five years on, his close friend and fellow actor Vipin Sharma<\/a> continues to carry those memories with warmth and reverence. In a recent interview with Lallantop, Vipin recalled his last meeting with Irrfan in London, a day that stayed etched in his heart forever.
\u201cThe day his chemo started, I went to see him\u201d
Vipin shared that he visited Irrfan at the hospital on the very day his chemotherapy began. \u201cI went to the hospital and headed to the fourth floor. I was so happy to see a book by Rumi placed next to his bed. Even in that condition, he was reading,\u201d he said.
As fate would have it, the two friends almost missed each other. \u201cI was on my way down and we crossed paths, he was entering the hospital. I remember he had a shawl wrapped around him. We hugged, and later sat together in his room for quite a while. His humour was exactly the same. He was laughing loudly.”
Despite his illness, Irrfan’s spirit remained untouched. Vipin chuckled while recalling a moment from the hospital room: \u201cHis mini fridge was stuffed with food. He said, \u2018Look yaar, so much food! I\u2019m so hungry. People must be thinking nothing\u2019s wrong with me, I\u2019m eating like this.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Irrfan Khan’s little world in a hospital room
Vipin described how Irrfan had created a small, vibrant world within the hospital, complete with television, OTT platforms, and people who cared. \u201cThere were some Malayali nurses who often chatted with him. They used to play hopscotch and would occasionally play with him too. They all knew him,\u201d he said. \u201cThat was his little world\u2014his hospital room with all the TV channels, Netflix, Amazon Prime. Some of his friends had arranged it for him.”<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was watching everything. He was a fighter,\u201d Vipin added with emotion. \u201cI can\u2019t describe the amount of pain he went through. But he was always curious, always wanting to learn something. He even did a film after all of it. He really was a fighter.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Irrfan Khan\u2019s last film, Angrezi Medium, released on March 13, 2020, a heartwarming story of a father and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26899,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7757],"tags":[16331,748,393,4884,16330,16329,16328,16327,16326,16325,257,16324,16,15,16323,16322],"class_list":{"0":"post-26898","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-london","8":"tag-angrezi-medium","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-great-britain","12":"tag-irrfan","13":"tag-irrfan-khan","14":"tag-irrfan-khan-cancer","15":"tag-irrfan-khan-death","16":"tag-irrfan-khan-final-days","17":"tag-last-meeting","18":"tag-london","19":"tag-neuroendocrine-tumour","20":"tag-uk","21":"tag-united-kingdom","22":"tag-vipin","23":"tag-vipin-sharma"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114352057488141850","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26898","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26898"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26898\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26899"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26898"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26898"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26898"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
