Irrfan Khan's son Babil returns to India after being stuck in London amidst coronavirus pandemic

The coronavirus outbreak hit various countries and many schools and colleges were on lockdown due to the same reason. Among them was Irrfan Khan's son Babil, who was also stuck in London. Irrfan's wife Sutapa Sikdar had confirmed the same two days back. She had posted on Facebook then, "Airport closure#indian students#stuckin#London! My son being one of them and what are we doing."

However, Sutapa has now confirmed that her son Babil has returned to India from London, where he was studying. Sutapa received him at the airport and later took to social media and wrote, "Thanks to everyone for the prayers and wishes. Babil is back to India safely. Gratitude to all of you who offered help. The flight was late over an hour."

For the uninformed, Sutapa had earlier pleaded with the government to make arrangements for students studying abroad to be brought back to India, to their families. According to a News18 report, she'd written, "While the virus is pointing towards us how nature is trying to tell us something, we are hoarding, escaping from hospitals and for such irresponsible people, those who would abide every test to keep others safe are suffering and are victims of fear."

On the work front, Irrfan, recently appeared in Angrezi Medium, which he made while undergoing treatment for cancer. The film opened well on its first day at the box office but was later hit by mass closures of cinema halls owing to the deadly coronavirus spread in the country.
