Irrfan Khan’s wife Sutapa and his son Babil often share unseen pictures of the late actor. A day after Sutapa shared a post about missing the actor, her son Babil has now penned a heartfelt note to the late actor. The ode talks about the immense loss they are coping up. He shared the post along with pictures of his parents and himself along with his younger brother Ayan.
His ode reads, “5 years too much, And now you’re a stranger 5 years in love, Pickin straws out the haystack Flicking through the picket pages Of the books I never read through. And that’s just one half of it The other half is you, Gleaming through the wicked winter moon, I wish I could fit in your shoes. You have gone so far away. And I’m always just a little too late. Plucking the strings of my sitar to soothe, These Monday morning blues And I carried on like the wayward son, In the wayward sun, but I found myself roaming the wastelands. I was high, when I witnessed my mother cry. I might never win. For,never will forget me, the unforgivable sin. Blood on her lips, crippled my heart. Pierced my soul like an adamant dart. Ma, my ma, tell me you love me too. Ma, my ma, I would give it all for you. (Yo bro, u know I love you more than life itself. ) @sikdarsutapa.”
