Sahabzade Irfan Ali Khan (7 January 1967 – 29 April 2020) was an Indian actor, known predominantly for his work in Hindi cinema, in addition to British and American films. Cited in the media as one of the finest actors in Indian cinema, Khan's career spanned over 30 years and earned him numerous accolades, including a National Film Award, an Asian Film Award, and four Filmfare Awards. In 2011, he was awarded the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian honour. Khan was born in Rajasthan to a Muslim family of Pathan ancestry.Khan's mother, Saeeda Begum Khan and father, the Yaseen Ali Khan, were from the Khajuriya village near Rajasthan's Tonk district and ran a tire business. Irrfan was good at cricket and was selected to play in the CK Nayudu Trophy for emerging players in the under-23 category; the tournament is seen as a stepping stone to first-class cricket in India. However, he could not turn up owing to lack of funds. Khan completed his MA in Jaipur before joining National School of Drama (NSD) in New Delhi in 1984 to study acting. In February 1995, Khan married writer and fellow NSD graduate Sutapa Sikdar. They had two sons. In 2012, he changed his name from Irfan to Irrfan; he said he liked the sound of the extra r in his name. He later dropped Khan from his name because—according to a 2016 interview—he wanted his work to define him, not his lineage. In March 2018, Khan revealed via a tweet that he had been diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumor. He sought treatment in the UK for a year, returning in February 2019. He was admitted to Mumbai's Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital on 28 April 2020, where he started receiving treatment for a colon infection. He died the following day at age 53, from the infection, four days after his mother's death in Jaipur. PakistaniMedia
