Irfaan Khan has indeed earned a life and left a rich legacy. ♾️

[@Jehandaruwalla]

Lol if u ever followed him u would have known that he never believed in this legacy & shit.

[@WalteRxBlacK]

@@Jehandaruwalla yaaa he thaught this fame,legacy, popularity is nothing

[@Jehandaruwalla]

@@WalteRxBlacK he was such a humble & intelligent man. He never considered himself to b important. The man just immersed himself in his work n life experiences n quietly went away.

[@mr.nobody4784]

I love you sukanya

[@ramanpandit9098]

Really true ❤️

[@aashadhakd3448]

We should protect this man at any cost. The rawness and his innocence is so precious. Babil khan for who he is not just because he's son of a legend ❤❤❤

[@Jehandaruwalla]

Ya ya protect. Go n guard like a watchman outside his father's house. Idiot

Babil Khan should start writing.He can express his tiniest emotions wonderfully,just like a writer does.

[@anamikachauhan2634]

In an interview for movie Qala , Anvita Dutta said for her , he was Sutopa's son, who is a writer.

[@sandhyasingh9093]

I echo the same , he connected so beautifully with us with his story

[@abeysonjose1756]

He writes for himself, he is a great singer n lyricist .

[@alkasoli4002]

Absolutely

[@culturaltrends3290]

Indeed

[@debadritaghosh8659]

Anybody else feels emotionally connected with this person? I feel like I know him. I'm not a very thorough listener, but I guess I could listen to him all day. Makes me want to know him more. I was shedding tears while watching this but I want to hear more about his life.

[@banchan9oo]

me.. because I lost my father just a few months ago. I also feel he has this certain innocence and rawness in him.. like the world didn't touch his heart yet.. he did mention that he loved all the attention and lifestyle but sometimes these things cannot change the inside of a person.

7:14 "the only friend that I never had to change myself to fit in with" RIP Irrfan Sir 👑 I watched Qala , had no clue who Babil was but couldn't believe it was his debut. Babil too is a fucking incredible actor !

[@krishniarumugam]

Truly a magnificent actor. Beautiful movie as well

[@ShivamSpace]

True that

[@vaibhavpatangiwar3529]

I think kafi average acting thi Lip sync to usko bilkul bi nai jam Raha tha

[@Writing_freak]

@@vaibhavpatangiwar3529 brother if you always look for perfection in art you'll never find that .... simplicity is what matters.... that's why he was good in Qala....he didn't push to bring the emotions....he did it casually by actually feeling the lines.

[@krishniarumugam]

@@vaibhavpatangiwar3529 You are amongst a small number of people who felt this. Babil was outstanding for a debut artiste

Perfect example of what an down to earth individual can be ! That smile ,those giggles ,those pauses they just conveyed every bit of emotion that Babil wanted to express…

[@Jehandaruwalla]

Perfect example of what a chutiya u can be. He is an actor out to buy your sympathy and you're totally fooled.

[@krishniarumugam]

This young man has such profound wisdom and honesty. There is much sadness in between this heartwarming teaching. Thank you to his parents for gifting the world such a wise, empathetic person.

[@Taanmoyyyy]

He is innocent

[@apurwa26]

"Jaldbaazi kya hai...Baba was going to be around forever. So then life decided that it had different plans." Emotions behind this really broke my heart.💔

[@kanaknegi2368]

"I can''t find the ground beneath my feet" - That's how we all are without our parents.

[@stillwatersnightsky6533]

One cannot go wrong with Rudolf Steiner..... Be blessed Babil, your parents gave you the greatest gift that is experience life on its own terms not concocted by society.

[@shantanuanand9704]

This story is so raw and honest - my favourite moments are the ones where he just giggles unabashedly or stays still between sentences, feeling the emotions of the story 🌻 Could watch this on repeat forever

[@akashgusain114]

After listening to this, i straight away went to my dad, sat beside him and thanked God for everything 🤞

[@friendshiprocks8673]

Lucky you

[@ErkRy-dv8rr]

You are as unique as everybody else

[@neerajrathore1963]

His story is reality. We are so busy to fulfill wishes of our friends that we forget our parents who wants nothing from us. We take so grantly the things we have like parents. His life teachs us that we don't have anything forever.But it is so nice that he is so humble and kind. Respecting everyone that's so amazing, like we can't expect that from those star kids who are here on their parents name.

[@28sphilip]

Most parents have conditional love which comes without their own knowledge. But Irrfan sir seemed to have been free from all social construct... Bless him, bless Babul

[@bhagyashreeK21]

A king raised a innocent soul , a pure gem💎

[@joydeepmukherjee9276]

I cried. I am super emotional about my dad. He is fine but thinking of a day without him is like nightmare

[@anuoldacct.1083]

One starkid with no hate. Thank God he was bought up well by his parents, he is not irritating & is Relatable.

[@swaradabidnur1695]

Man can't stop sobbing. What a soul Irfan had just left us..Uff this Humble god child will teach us very basic things ❤️🤗

[@TheSumit22]

he didn't even waited for the reaction of audience, that's the detachment and living without expectations from the world.

[@Jehandaruwalla]

@@friendshiprocks8673 lol we're not talking about acting skills here. People r goin all awww over him jus coz he's irfan khan's son. So many kids lose their parents. Do they get an audience to listen to their sob stories?

“ Go with the flow “ is the only thing we can do in our life to keep us happy and peaceful 🤟

[@therealakarshjaiswal]

I'm at a loss of words. The pain he went through while telling the story was transcending, I could feel it in me. Maybe because even I am carrying the same pain in me. Things become less meaningful and joyless. Speaking your pain out seems like an impossible and irrelevant task. But he did it, he surpassed the pain and did it. It is inspiring and encouraging. Thank you Babil.
