Irrfan Khan and Shah Rukh Khan
Irrfan Khan is battling life with the neuroendocrine tumour. He is undergoing the treatment in a London hospital. Ever since Irrfan has been diagnosed with this illness, his family, friends and industry peers have respected the privacy and refrained from talking about his health.
Amidst all this, a rumour of Shah Rukh Khan rushing to Irrfan's house and handing them his London's house keys for his family to stay, while he gets his treatment, started circulating. It was also reported that Irrfan Khan's wife Sutapa confided in Shah Rukh Khan before going to London for the treatment and Shah Rukh rushed at his home and spent nearly two hours with them.
However, Irrfan Khan has quashed this rumour of Shah Rukh Khan lending him a helping hand. In a statement, the actor's spokesperson cleared the air by stating, "The recent story about Irrfan and Shahrukh Khan holds no truth in reality. While the duo is friends, the story of their meeting and the subsequent incidents has no truth."
The statement further read, "The story floating around of Shah Rukh and Irrfan is a fragment of imagination of some individual who has whipped out the story through their unreliable sources. It has no truth to it."
