Both the mentioned stars are no more in the world, which is the reason he penned the words, ”in remembrance of the two that have left us.” Irrfan Khan succumbed to cancer recently on April 29, 2020, and Sridevi passed away on February 24, 2018. Amitabh Bachchan has worked with both of them and was nostalgic about the anniversary of the films which he did with them.
