Irrfan Khan says he might be suffering from a rare disease

Indian star Irrfan Khan made a startling revelation on Twitter yesterday.

The Hindi Medium actor shared that he's possibly suffering from a rare illness: "Little had I known that my search for rare stories would make me find a rare disease."

He assured fans that "I have never given up and have always fought for my choices and always will. My family and friends are with me and we are working it out the best way possible."

Irrfan also added that he will update his fans and the media in a week to ten days when a conclusive diagnosis is in.

Irrfan has been unwell for a few weeks now and even missed the trailer launch of his upcoming film Blackmail two weeks ago. At that point, doctors thought he had jaundice:

We're hoping that Irrfan isn't suffering from a life-altering illness and hope to hear positive news soon.
