Sutapa Sikdar, wife of late actor Irrfan Khan revealed that how desperately did the couple wanted a girl child. It was on the occasion of Daughters’ Day that she took to her Facebook account and penned down her feelings. She said, “Me and Irrfan wanted to have a daughter so desperately that on my second delivery my doc could not utter the word son and said instead ‘congratulations!! healthy child!!’ I was disappointed…. yes, I was. That day for us and today, I feel sad that a girl child got deprived of Irrfan’s parenting of a girl. Because just giving freedom is not enough to a girl child”.
The message was not alone. She also added a video along with it, of an ad campaign, rooting for a girl child. “Whatever is happening around makes me say freedom is not about only being vocal it’s not about treading on other’s freedom only. Let’s get up beyond being voyeuristic beyond the so called emancipation and do something more concrete and meaningful for India. There is subtitle but those who are not aware of my mother tongue might not enjoy as much,” Sutapa Sikdar added.
We lost another gem from the Bollywood industry on April 29th this year. Irrfan Khan is survived by wife Sutapa and two sons Babil and Ayan.
