Calling her co-star Irrfan Khan a "fighter", actor Mithila Palkar says something feels "incomplete" as the team of their latest film "Karwaan" hit the promotion spree.
The promotional responsibilities have fallen on the shoulders of Mithila and Dulquer Salmaan as their co-star Irrfan is undergoing treatment for neuroendocrine tumour in London.
"It was extremely heartbreaking to hear this (Irrfan's illness) but all our love and prayers are with him. He is a fighter. Hope we see him very soon. These promotions are completely incomplete without him. He brings the most vibrant and refreshing flavor of him in 'Karwaan'," she told PTI.
After making her debut in Hindi cinema with Nikhil Advani's "Katti Batti" in 2015, Mithila will be sharing screen space with Irrfan and Dulquer for the first time.
For Mithila, working alongside both the seasoned actors in the film was a huge opportunity.
"It took me a while for me to understand that I was acting with them. I had to pinch and remind myself that I am their co-actor. Initially it was intimidating."
