Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife Tahira Kashyap has shared a new pic on World Cancer Day which shows the scar from her mastectomy.
Mumbai: Actor Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife and filmmaker Tahira Kashyap has shared a powerful new image on World Cancer Day. In the picture, she shows her bald head, bareback and a scar from her mastectomy, performed last year.
“Today is my day! Wish you all a happy #worldcancerday and hope each one of us celebrates this day in an embracing way. That we remove any stigma or taboo associated with it. That we spread awareness about it and that we have self-love no matter what,” she wrote in her post.
“I truly embrace all my scars as they are my badges of honour. There is nothing known as perfect. Happiness lies in truly accepting yourself. This was a tough one for me. But this picture was my decision as I want to celebrate not the disease but the spirit with which I endured,” she added. The picture has been clicked by Atul Kasbekar.
Tahira, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018 and since then she is sharing her journey on social media.
Paa le tu aisi Fateh.
Samandar teri pyaas se darey.
