Ayushmann Khurrana and wife Tahira Kashyap are one of Bollywood’s most adorable couples. They met each other when they were in Class 12th and the couple has been through thick and thin together. Tahira recently uploaded a photo in a hospital gown and revealed that she has been detected with Stage 0 breast cancer.
Tahira joked about her ‘badge of honour’ and called herself the Indian Angelina Jolie. She has undergone a prophylactic mastectomy and her positive words on self-love and resilience were inspiring.
She wrote, “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.”
Ayushmann Khurana found out about this on his birthday and reportedly spent the entire day in the hospital with his wife. He took to Instagram to talk about how brave he thinks his wife is. He said, “Last 7 days have been tough but we have decided to have a happy life state & fight this challenge. I’m proud of my warrior princess.”
Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap have been married for seven years and are parents to six-year-old Virajveer and four-year-old Varushka. On the work front, Tahira’s short film Toffee was hugely applauded and Ayushmann will be seen in Badhai Ho and AndhaDhun.
Tahira is on her way to recovery and we’re sending her our love.
