When Irrfan Khan put out a tweet yesterday with a post, the first thought that came to my mind was that it was something related to his upcoming movie, Blackmail. It should have been that, I really wanted it to be that. But sadly, the tweet was something that shocked the hell out of us. Irrfan Khan revealed that he has been suffering from a rare disease and he is currently working with the doctors in knowing how to fight it. He didn't reveal the details of his disease but promised his fans to tell them the truth once he gets the proper details. Irrfan Khan even asked them to give him ten days time to do so.

But we are an impatient society, aren't we? Especially certain sections of media whose overzealousness in getting the news out first have been ridiculed by many. Remember how some news channels had reported Sridevi's demise? So instead of adhering to Irrfan's request, some of the media channels decided to go on their own missions to find out what he is suffering from.

Check out this report in NewsX that states Irrfan Khan is diagnosed with a deadly brain cancer Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) Grade IV and is currently admitted in Kokilaben Hospital in Mumbai. Here's what that report says,

While this report sounds shocking in the first glance, how true is it?

Well, as per trade analyst Komal Nahta, not true at all! He wrote on Twitter that all 'malicious news' about the actor's condition are untrue, and Irrfan is actually in Delhi at the moment, and not in a hospital in Mumbai as per the above report. Here's his tweet,

Hope that clears matters. And in case you don't understand the virtue of patience, please read Irrfan's post again.

Right now, Irrfan Khan needs our prayers and wishes and not further scrutinisation on what he is suffering from. Let's please respect that!
