Babil on Thursday took to Instagram and shared pictures of his late father and cinema icon Irrfan Khan.

The pictures show Irrfan Khan lovingly taking care of his wife, Sutapa, even as he was battling cancer himself. In his caption, Babil shared that the photos were taken when Irrfan was treating corns on Sutapa's feet.

"During baba's most unbearable peak cancer period, mamma used to get corns on her feet, running around and taking care of him. So baba used to tie his phone on his head as a light source and operate on her corns. Both peeling off hardened layers of resistance towards the soft skin of love," he captioned the post.

Irrfan's pictures left netizens emotional.

"What a beautiful memory. Sir will always live on in everything you do," a netizen wrote.

"So much pain and warmth in these pictures," another social media user commented.

It's heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. "Peeling off hardened layers of resistance towards the soft skin of love" – what a profound way to describe their bond. We lost him too soon.

This is the real definition of a life partner. In our culture, we talk so much about 'sanskar' and duty. Irrfan Khan showed it through silent, selfless action. A lesson for all of us.

While the sentiment is beautiful, I feel a bit conflicted. These are such private family moments. I hope sharing them brings Babil and his family more healing than pain. Respect to their journey.

His legacy is not just in films like 'Paan Singh Tomar' or 'Maqbool', but in these human moments. It shows the person behind the artist. Truly humbling.

Makes me emotional. In a film industry often filled with noise and drama, Irrfan Khan's life was a lesson in quiet dignity and profound love. Sutapa ji must have been his pillar of strength too. 🙏
