<p>Irrfan Khan stunned everyone as he took to Twitter on May 16 in the middle of his cancer treatment in London to promote his upcoming film titled <em>Karwaan</em>.</p>

<p>In a sweet post, Irfan welcomed his co-stars of the film Dulquer Salmaan and Mithila Palkar to join in on the ride. He captioned the post: “ “Beginnings have the innocence that experience can’t buy. My best wishes to @dulQuer , @mipalkar for joining the karwaan. ‘ Two karwaans ‘ .... Mine and the movie !! @MrAkvarious @RSVPMovies @RonnieScrewvala.”</p>

<p>There are two details in the post that we can’t ignore, one that he took to Twitter after a gap of two months -- first time ever since he left India for treatment in London. Secondly, he subtly hints at some sort of “beginnings” and we are hoping it means that he is getting better and fighting off that tumour like a true fighter!</p>

<p>Also, the word ‘karwaan’ means the journey of a large company of pilgrims in Urdu. In this sense, he talks about his struggle (with the disease) and one with the film.&nbsp;</p>
