The video shows four trophies kept on a shelf. In the center of it is an empty space. Babil taps at the shelf with an empty space where he desires to place his trophy. He captioned the post and wrote, "Makin space for mine hopefully?" along with fingers crossed emoji. Earlier, Babil shared his plans on entering the fraternity. According to him, he plans to enter the Indian film industry as an actor once he completes graduation from a film school here. He had shared a picture of the book Actors on Acting, edited by Toby Cole and Helen Krich Chinoy. The book was signed by his father, who according to Babil Khan, bought it in New York to prepare for his role in filmmaker Mira Nair’s 2006 drama The Namesake. When a user asking him in the comments section of the post when he would take up acting, Babil Khan replied, “I am already in the field of acting, when I will appear in a film is the question.” “Once I have graduated around May, I will start looking into offers,” he added.
Meanwhile, on Irrfan’s 54th birthday in January this year, Babil had penned a lengthy note where he wrote about his father’s way of celebrating his birthday’s. "You never identified with institutions such as contractual marriage and birthday celebrations. Perhaps, that is why I don’t remember anyone’s birthdays because you never remembered mine and never encouraged me to remember yours. It was just normal to us what seemed absurd from the outside, we celebrated every day (bringing personal experiential authenticity to the cliche). On the occasion, Mamma would have to remind us both; but this time I could not forget yours if I tried. It’s your birthday, Baba. Shoutout to all the technologically inept parents, notice that they did not finish saying that they miss me,” he wrote. (sic)
