Arshad Warsi’s touching gesture

Arshad Warsi, during the shooting of his film Kaun Bola? (earlier titled I Believe in Angels) In Newcastle, England took time out to pay a special visit to a young fan, battling a rare lung disease.

15 year old Ayesha Ahmed a resident of Fenham in Newcastle was the name of this young fan who suffers from Wegener’s disease, an immune system disorder which affects her lungs, making it hard to breathe and she is hooked up to an oxygen machine 24 hours a day. Due to her medical complications she has to spend a lot of time in the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle. Arshad Warsi surprised her by dropping in her ward for a chat with her.

It had so happened that, the girl’s uncle Ifty Khan had joined the production team of Warsi’s film in Newcastle and when Warsi came to know through him the plight of his fan he immediately took a break and went on to visit her. It is learnt that poor Ayesha was left speechless on Warsi’s arrival.

A close pal of Arshad Warsi told us, “Arshad heard Ifty speaking on phone with great concern to his sister for a long time. So he asked Ifty what was the matter that’s when Ifty told him about Ayesha and how resilient, intelligent and brave she was battling such a dreaded disorder. That’s when Arshad decided to pay her a visit to boost her confidence and to cheer her up. He had shot the whole of the night till almost 5 am in the morning but yet without taking his required sleep he went down to meet her in early noon.”
