Mumbai, May 1 (TIWN) Late Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan's wife Sutapa, along with sons Babil and Ayaan, has issued a statement expressing gratitude to his doctors and fans. The family also believes the actor's death is not a loss, because now they will learn to implement things in life that he had taught them over the years.

"How can I write this as a family statement when the whole world is taking it as a personal loss? How can I begin to feel alone when millions are grieving with us at the moment? I want to assure everyone that this is not a loss, it is a gain. It's a gain of the things he taught us, and now we shall finally begin to truly implement it and evolve. Yet I want to try to fill in the things that people don't already know," the statement said.  Talking about the actor's strive for perfection, the statement added: "It's unbelievable for us but I would put it in Irrfan's words, 'it's magical' whether he is there or not there, and that's what he loved, he never loved one dimensional reality. The only thing I have a grudge against him is; he has spoiled me for life. His strive for perfection doesn't let me settle for ordinary in any thing. There was a rhythm which he always saw in everything, even in cacophony and chaos, so I have learnt to sing and dance to the music of that rhythm, even with my tone-deaf voice and two left feet."  The family also expressed gratitude to doctors who stood by them.
