Sikdar shared a few childhood pics of Babil Khan with his caregivers and started her post, “It takes a whole village to raise a child.” How very true is that!! in this case it was not a village but a city and babil was raised by irrfan and me , two working people ..he didn’t have the luxury of a joint family of nana dada or a fancy nursery but watching him in “qala” and specially promotions of the film I realized he was brought up well.”

She further wrote, “Will have a long chat with you irrfan on the other side and that’s what I am missing the most today. The biggest desire and want in me is to to wait for you and me to meet and discuss qala our son’s first work.after a long again I felt sooooo lonely as a single parent.”

Towards the end of her post, Sutapa thanked the entire “village” who loved Babil so much and took care of him when he was a child.
