Is That Irrfan Khan In London Watching Eng Vs Pak Match At Lord’s?

A picture of a man seated in the crowd at Lord’s stadium, London has surfaced on Internet and reports claim that it is actor Irrfan Khan, who is currently in London recuperating from neuroendocrine tumour. While the man is a spitting image of Irrfan Khan, enjoying a cricket match at Lord’s stadium, it is not confirmed yet that it is the actor himself. Although Zainab Abbas, sports anchor for Dunya News, was covering the event and took to his Twitter handle and posted his picture with the caption, “Pic shared by @Furqan013 - there’s actor Irfan Khan enjoying the match at Lord’s”

Twitter went abuzz on seeing the picture and a debate started soon after on whether it is Irrfan or not. There was a user, who also tweeted saying that it was indeed Irrfan, as he was seated just a row ahead of him. He even said that many came to take a picture with him but the actor refused citing his health.

Talking about the Piku actor’s last tweet, Irrfan after a long while tweeted a poster of his film Karwaan. He was off Twitter after he reached London for his treatment. A few days back, Soojit Sircar confirmed that Irrfan is doing better and is on a road to recovery. The director had visited him in UK.

Coming back to this picture, whether it is of Irrfan’s or not, is not sure but surely fans would want to believe that it is their favourite actor enjoying a cricket match.
