Irrfan Khan reveals how the Cancer Treatment Changed his Life: I think I am cleaning the clutter!

Irrfan Khan was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumor last February and he headed to London for his treatment. The actor underwent treatment for a year as he announced his diagnosis on social media.

He has come back to India after completing his treatment and shot his upcoming film Angrezi Medium, Irrfan has given an update about his health to those who prayed for his well-being.

Talking Hindustan Times, Irrfan said, "Honestly, I don't know. I really don't know. While some days are great, others are bad. Most of the time, I think I am cleaning the clutter away from the noise."

After going through a turmoil of emotions and a sense of dread while waking up every morning, Irrfan had learned the meaning of life in a hard way. 

The 53-year-old actor also shared how he has learned the actual meaning of ‘running out of time’. 

He said, “I had become excessively busy, so much so that I almost missed (watching) my sons (Babil and Ayan) become young adults from little boys. I was running out of time all the time. Ironically now, I have kind of an idea what ‘running out of time’ actually means. So, I am just counting my blessings and thanking everyone who has prayed for me.”

Previously, in an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Irrfan revealed how his wife encouraged him to overcome cancer and said: "What to say about Sutapa? She is there 24/7. She has evolved in care-giving and if I get to live, I want to live for her." Irrfan added: "She is the reason for me to keep at it still."
