Sutapa Sikdar with Irrfan Khan

Actor Irrfan Khan's wife, Sutapa Sikdar, had penned a note on Facebook after the death of a relative due to Covid-19. She wrote in her note that she was unable to find a hospital bed for him, amid an acute shortage of resources in New Delhi.

Sutapa wrote on May 4, "I posted day before for help for my relative Sameer Banerjee. Today he left us. We couldnt set up an ICU at home in Delhi the capital of India. And we couldnt get a bed in the hospital. My gratitude to all the covid warriors who helped. I will never forget you all, my blessings to you all till I live."

She continued, "I will never forget sameerdas smile ..i will cherish my adolescent memories with him. I will never ever forget that I couldnt get a bed in ICU for him because he was not chotarajan. he was an honest man. I will not forget this mayhem in delhi."
