​The legend!


A loss that feels so personal to the nation, as the legendary Actor Irfan Khan breathed his last on 29th April 2020, his early demise left the country mourning. A man who took Indian Cinema to new heights, inspired millions with his artistic excellence and charm. A man of few words, Irfan Khan’s loved ones define him as a man of simple tastes.

​His love for homemade food

A man who chose simplicity over everything! A foodie at heart, Irfan Khan was a man of simple choices and his love for homemade food was beyond words. He often shared how much he loved the food his Mother made at home, and he had always loved the idea of eating simple food with veggies. In one of his old interviews, he once expressed his love for Mughali food. Especially the ones cooked at home in the traditional way.

​Irfan Khan’s love for pani puris

As a memory of Irfan Khan’s love for simple foods, his son Babil shared a small video on Instagram, where he is seen relishing a plate full of Gol gappas or as he calls it pani puri.

The exuberance after each having each pani puri was so evident in his smile and his expression was just priceless.

Babil shared this lovely memory by captioning it as “When you are on diet for so long and then the shoot ends and you can have pani puri,” It seems like a cherished family memory, when someone in the video talks about deciding the menu and ordering Ala carte, and Irfan is all engrossed in the happiness of indulging in those little pani puris.

Going by the caption it seems the actor was on a strict diet, and we all know how it feels to relish your favourite delicacy after a long term diet. No wonder, the dynamic actor is not around us anymore, but he will always be there as an inspiration for us!
