Multi-talented actor Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife Tahira Kashyap too dons several hats. She is a writer-director, who is all set to make her feature film debut as a director. Today Tahira took to her Instagram account and revealed that she is diagnosed with DCIS – (Ductal Carcinoma in Situ) in her right breast with high-grade malignant cells. It is a stage 0 cancer or a pre-cancerous stage, she wrote.

Talking about her diagnosis Tahira shared a lengthy post, “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)! 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”

We are amazed by Tahira’s courage and the fact that she shared this news so casually. Ayushmann Khurrana speaking to Indian Express, said, “I am happy today as she got discharged. I am relieved. It was unexpected, but she is fine now!”

We wish Tahira a speedy recovery.
