Apparently, the Bollywood actor visited the hospital last week, and spent half an hour with the young boy. “Emraan also gave him a box of chocolates and some other gifts. The actor also interacted with his friends and family members, and promised to take them for the premiere of his next film.”

Early this year, Emraan Hashmi released a book that details the struggles his son, Ayaan, faced while getting his cancer treatment.
