<p>Soon after the news of Irrfan Khan's hospitalisation came to light on Tuesday, rumours started doing the rounds in a section of the media that claimed that the actor had passed away. An official statement from the actor's spokesperson has quashed those rumours calling them 'extreme assumption'.<br />
<br />
The statement came at 1 am on Wednesday where the spokesperson said, "It`s really disappointing to know that there are extreme assumptions being made about Irrfan`s health. While we are truly appreciative that people are concerned, it`s disheartening to see some sources spread extreme rumours and creating panic. Irrfan is a strong person and is still fighting the battle. We really request you to not fall for rumours and not partake in these conversations which are fictional. We have always actively clarified and shared updates on his health and we will continue doing so."</p>

<p>The actor<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/irrfan-khans-health-deteriorates-admitted-in-a-hospital-in-mumbai-295344"> had to be admitted to the Intensive Care Unit</a> at Mumbai`s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani hospital with a colon infection&nbsp; on Tuesday.</p>

<p>"Yes, it is true that Irrfan khan is admitted to ICU at Kokilaben in Mumbai because of a colon infection. We would keep everyone updated. He is under doctor`s observation. His strength and courage have helped him battle and fight so far and we are sure with his tremendous willpower and prayers of all his well wishers, he will recover soon," said the earlier report issued on behalf of Irrfan by his spokesperson.</p>

<p>The actor has been ailing ever since he was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine tumour in 2018, and has been under medical attention for the same.</p>

<p>Irrfan is currently mourning the loss of his mother. The actor`s mother Saeeda Begum breathed her last on Saturday in Jaipur where she used to stay. However, owing to the ongoing lockdown, the actor could not physically attend his mother`s last rites and reportedly paid his last respect through video conferencing.</p>

<p>Irrfan was last seen in Homi Adajania's 'Angrezi Medium' which was the last Bollywood film to release in India before theatres across the country were shut down due to outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.</p>

'Extreme assumptions being made about Irrfan's health': Actor's spokesperson quashes death rumours

<p>Irrfan Khan returned to India last month after undergoing treatment for a neuroendocrine tumour in London. We <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/irrfan-khan-is-back-in-india-now-being-treated-in-mumbai-197126">informed you</a> about Khan’s return as media reports stated that he will now be seen by doctors at Mumbai's Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While it is still uncertain whether he is still getting treated for cancer or has it been cleared off, the star was recently spotted at the Mumbai airport. Although he faced his back towards the camera and not once posed for the shutters, we know that it was him indeed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Khan had a muffler around his neck as he sported a pink jacket and camouflage pants.&nbsp;</p>
