Sutapa Sikdar remembered late actor Irrfan on their wedding anniversary with an emotional note, recalling why they chose their wedding date and his wish to remarry after 25 years.
Late actor Irrfan’s wife Sutapa Sikdar remembered him on their wedding anniversary with a heartfelt note. Sharing a video, she recalled why they chose their wedding date and spoke about their unfinished plans to remarry after completing 25 years together.
She posted the video on Instagram and wrote, "Our anniversary was on the 23rd And the reason to choose the date was to keep the date same as my birthday. So Irrfan could remember. He just didn't remember dates."
In her note, Sutapa explained that they had deliberately picked February 23, the same as her birthday, because Irrfan often forgot dates.

"Belated Happy wedding anniversary Irrfan. You wanted to marry again when we had finished 25 years of marriage. You wanted to do everything which we didn't do on our simplest marriage possible, but even destiny sided with you and we didn't get to marry again with all the rituals et all," she wrote.
