The actor made the announcement of his illness in 2018 saying, “The unexpected makes us grow, which is what the past few days have been about. Learning that I have been diagnosed with NeuroEndocrine Tumour as of now has admittedly been difficult, but the love and strength of those around me and that I found within me has brought me to a place of hope.”
“The journey of this is taking me out of the country, and I request everyone to continue sending their wishes. As for the rumours that were floated NEURO is not always about the brain and googling is the easiest way to do research. To those who waited for my words, I hope to be back with more stories to tell,” he added.
Meanwhile, Irrfan is expected to commence work on Hindi Medium 2. The film, that exposes the education system of the country, also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan.
