Babil routinely posts some lovely images and sincere comments in memory of his late father. Celebrating the memory of his father, the youngster shared some treasured old images on his official Instagram account.

The first monochromatic image is of Babil as a small child. His mother, Sutapa Sikdar, is pictured cradling the child as Irrfan Khan is pictured holding a camera and snapping a picture.

The second image of Babil dozing off next to his dad on the floor looks too cute. The third throwback picture shows Irrfan Khan lovingly holding baby Babil in his arms. The last one shows him kissing his little son.

Babil expressed his grief in his heartfelt note by lamenting the fact that he is unable to speak with Irrfan. “Questions keep me up at night. Those that I never asked then, those that I can never ask now. My inquiries are left for me to quench on my own, that’s okay, I will figure it out. I miss your laughter though, I don’t think there is an answer for that (sic),” he captioned the photographs.

On the work front, Babil made his acting debut in Triptii Dimri and writer-director Anvitaa Dutt’s ‘Qala’.
