Babil, son of late actor Irrfan Khan, is dropping out of his film studies course to focus completely on his acting career in Bollywood. The young actor was pursuing the bachelor of arts degree in film studies at the University of Westminster, United Kingdom. He is set to make his acting debut with director Anvitaa Dutt’s web film Qala, which also features Triptii Dimri.

Babil shared an emotional parting note for his friends from the university on social media. He wrote, “I will miss you so much. My beautiful friends. I have a very tight circle here in Mumbai, literally 2-3 friends in total. You all gave me a home in a strange cold place and made me feel like I belonged. Thank you, I love you. Film BA, dropping out today, with over 120 credits because I’m giving it all to acting as of now. Goodbye university of Westminster. I love you my truest friends (sic).”

Last week, filmmaker Shoojit Sircar announced that he was all set to collaborate with Babil for a project, details of which are still under wraps.
