Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan is suffering from NeuroEndocrine Tumour. The actor is currently in London undergoing treatment. His illness came as a shock to many.
Before he was diagnosed with cancer, Irrfan had confirmed to star in Amazon Prime series Gormint created by the comedy collective AIB. But now, amid battle with cancer, the actor exits from the series.
The actor took to Facebook to share this news. He wrote,
“Ministry, now known as Gormint, the Amazon video series I have been working on with AIB, was one of my most favourite ongoing projects. After shooting for months and after having a ballistic time on set I discovered my now on-going physical condition. With a heavy heart I would like to say that due to this ongoing situation, I will not be able to fulfil my acting commitment to the show.
I am gutted by this development because the character and the show thrilled me, and I even lived the character for several months before having to cut the journey short. But after extensive discussions, workarounds and sincere efforts by everyone involved, the situation prevents me from being able to do the show entirely. And thus I must, at this time, exit stage left. I want to thank everyone involved in the project for their support and understanding. I still remain excited to see the final product and have complete faith in the creative team to deliver something that is unique and unseen in the Indian satire space so far, and I wish them the same good luck and love that they have always wished for me.”

After his fifth Chemo, he got admitted in the hospital for 15 days, after facing excess of weakness on July 14. The actor has been fighting the dreadful disease like a true hero.
In March, the actor revealed that he has been diagnosed with neuroendocrine tumour, a rare form of cancer that can target various parts of the body, and is out of the country for treatment.
“It’s been quite some time now since I have been diagnosed with a high-grade neuroendocrine cancer. This new name in my vocabulary, I got to know, was rare, and due to fewer study cases, and less information comparatively, the unpredictability of the treatment was more. I was part of a trial-and-error game,” the actor wrote.
While, we surely knows that Irrfan is a strong fighter and he will comes out as a winner.
