Irrfan Khan exits Amazon show ‘Gormint’

Irrfan Khan has been forced to exit the Amazon show ‘Gormint due to his ongoing health treatment.

The Amazon show, created by AIB, was to feature Khan but he has had to leave it as he is undergoing treatment in London for cancer. In a statement, Khan said, “With a heavy heart I would like to say that due to this ongoing situation, I will not be able to fulfil my acting commitment to the show”.

He added, “I am gutted by this development because the character and the show thrilled me, and I even lived the character for several months before having to cut the journey short. But after extensive discussions, workarounds and sincere efforts by everyone involved, the situation prevents me from being able to do the show entirely. And thus I must, at this time, exit stage left.”

Khan wished AIB and Amazon all the best for the show and thanked them for “their support and understanding”. “I still remain excited to see the final product and have complete faith in the creative team to deliver something that is unique and unseen in the Indian satire space so far”.
