Irrfan’shealthwoe­s

-

Bollywood star IRRFAN KHAN (51), who made waves in Hollywood blockbuste­rs such as Jurassic Park and Life of Pi, has revealed he has a rare tumour. The actor stunned fans when he took to Twitter to reveal he’s been diagnosed with a neuroendoc­rine tumour. The disease compromise­s cells that release hormones into the bloodstrea­m and affects just 35 in 100 000 people. The Slumdog Millionair­e star had been scheduled to start work on a Bollywood film but the yet unnamed movie’s director, Vishal Bharadwaj, recently announced production has been postponed due to Irrfan’s illness.
