In 2019, Emraan had shared about his son’s challenging times on Amitabh Bachchan’s Kaun Banega Crorepati 11. He had said, “My son Ayaan's remission phase - during which the cancer might make a comeback - was a tough phase for us as we parents go through a lot of fear psychosis. The whole process is psychologically disturbing. While researching about the disease, I got to know that nutrition plays an important role in the treatment as the body needs a strong immune system while going through the treatment. Even after the medical treatment, we have to focus on follow-up care, which involves proper nutrition and the well-being of a person, which has been the focal point of Cuddle foundation.”

Meanwhile, Emraan Hashmi was last seen in Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer Tiger 3. He is reportedly in talks for Don 3 starring Ranveer Singh, and directed by Farhan Akhtar. ALSO READ: Emraan Hashmi gifts himself Rolls Royce Ghost Black Badge worth Rs. 12.25 crore!
