Bollywood Showers Love And Extends Support To Ayushmann's Wife Tahira Amidst Cancer Treatment

Ayushmann Khurrana's wife Tahira Kashyap shared the heartbreaking news of being diagnosed with Stage1A breast cancer last year.

While this was something they may have never imagined but that hasn't deterred or stopped Tahira from chasing her dreams or leading a normal life.

Tahira is an inspiration in the true sense and we have yet another example. Just one day ago, she shared a picture of her shaved head and she shared a strong message about self-love.

She wrote,

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

"That¡¯s a new me with the old self! Was getting tired of the extensions, so this is how it is and it¡¯s so liberating in every sense of the word, so much so that I don¡¯t have to duck the shower while bathing or while picking up the soap! I never thought I had go bald, was stretching my time with the good ol¡¯ cap for too long. But this feels so good"

That's not all. Like a doting husband that he is, Ayushmann had the sweetest thing to say about Tahira's post about shaving her head and self-love.
