Irrfan Khan to take a break after 'Angrezi Medium'?
Irrfan Khan recently wrapped up the shooting of his upcoming movie, Angrezi Medium. And if recent reports are to be believed, the talented actor is planning to take a break from movies now. According to Bollywood Hungama, Irrfan won't be signing any movie after the current one. "He may do one film at time, or none at all after Angrezi Medium," said a filmmaker-friend.
"There is no question of taking on any new assignment"
"Irrfan has taken on one assignment Angrezi Medium, and that's it. He will complete this film and then decide the course of his career in future. There is no question of taking on any new assignment at the moment," the source was quoted as saying.
Irrfan has decided to slow down after battling cancer
Irrfan has decided to go slow after suffering from Neuroendocrine tumor, a rare form of caner. The filmmaker-friend added, "Irrfan's entire perception on life and career has changed. He no longer feels the need to push himself. He may do one film at time, or none at all after Angrezi Medium. It all depends on his health and his state of mind."
Irrfan was diagnosed with a rare cancer last March
To recall, Irrfan was diagnosed with Neuroendocrine tumor in March last year. He had gone to London for treatment. While it was speculated that the actor is battling brain tumor, Irrfan cleared the air about his disease. "I got to know, it was rare, and due to fewer study cases, and less information comparatively, the unpredictability of the treatment was more," the 52-year-old mentioned.
