Life might have thrown a harsh curve ball at Ayushmann Khurrana's wife Tahira Kashyap but she for sure knows how to deal with it. Tahira was diagnosed with breast cancer and is going through the preventive mastectomy, has gone bald.
She took to her social media to share photographs of her "new" self. She captioned the pictures as,
"Hello, world! That's a new me with the old self! Was getting tired of the extensions. Well, this is how it is and it's so liberating, so much so that I don't have to duck the shower while bathing or while picking up the soap! Never thought I had to go bald, but this feels good."
Like a supporting and loving husband that Ayushmann is, he left an adorable comment on the picture. He wrote, 'Hottie', proving that his love for her is beyond everything in life.
Just to jog your memory a little, on September 22 last year, Tahira shared online that she was detected with DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) in her right breast with high-grade malignant cells.

An opportunity to give competition to the Kardashians just went wasted! A week back I mentioned about ¡®my badge of honour¡¯ that I was going to receive. And I did and am happy to share about it with the intention of it being received with love. As that¡¯s the only reason I am posting it. Love for self and gratitude for the universe. The picture might be disturbing for some, but these drains have become my dumbells for a few days. I was detected with DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) in my right breast with high grade malignant cells. Simply put stage 0 cancer/ pre-cancerous stage, with cancer cells multiplying in a contained area. The result I have become a half Indian version of Angelina Jolie (since only one breast was involved)! I told my doctor now is the time to give some competition to the Kardashians since Pamela is pass¨¦. But no one listened to me, so now I have a portion of my back tissue in my breast. Perhaps now I can do chin-ups with my breasts! Jokes apart, this obstacle has given me a new definition of life. Respect it¡¯s unpredictability and have the faith and courage to be the hero of your own drama of life. The invincible human spirit is God like, gives you the courage to endure and the will to revive. There is nothing that human spirit can¡¯t do. Also I want women of all ages to be aware. I am 35, and I was returned twice over from a mammogram. If any symptoms come up, think of it as a protective force and get yourselves examined. Also we are so obsessed with boobs. This mastectomy has left me with even more self love! Big, small, left or right inclined , gravity pulling or defying, or even none, each breast the presence or lack of it has a story to tell. Mine has made me a 2.0 version of myself! This post is dedicated to awareness, self love and resilience of a warrior that I know each one of us possesses?? #breastcancerawareness #selflove #determination #faith #bodhisattva #bodhisattvaoftheearth
