Emraan Hashmi opens up about son's cancer
The actor opens up about dealing with his son Ayaan's cancer. Says Emraan, "We were to start shooting Mr. X on January 16 last year and on January 13, the problem happened with Ayaan and the schedule was pushed ahead indefinitely. I realised that I had to juggle between two things, the role as a father and the role as a professional and that too was very important. So, as much as there are people around for you, everyone has their own kitchens to run, so everyone’s life goes on. I had to take a call on whether to be with Ayaan for six months for his treatment or not. My wife Parveen and I decided that we settle her in Toronto, get the chemotherapy going and a month after his operation, I return to work. Ayaan is a fighter and thankfully, his body took the chemo very well without adverse reactions, and I flew back a month later on Valentine’s Day and we started shooting. It had been a tough call for me to say a goodbye to Ayaan and take a flight back. I had to lie to him that I was going to get him gifts, but I knew that I was actually going away to shoot for three-and-a- half months. I tried in between to go back to Toronto, but couldn’t due to my commitments. I was shooting here, but my mind was constantly there."
