Meanwhile, Angrezi Medium, which is Irrfan Khan's first film after completing his treatment of neuroendocrine tumour, went on floors last month. Before he started filming, Irrfan wrote an emotional note for his fans, a part of which read: "Maybe somewhere in the pursuit of winning we forget how much it means to be loved... In our vulnerability we are reminded... I want to pause to be grateful for receiving your immense love and support... I travel back to you, thanking you from the bottom of my heart."
Angrezi Medium also stars Deepak Dobriyal and Pankaj Tripathi.
