A clip from the talk show has been making the rounds of the internet where the newlywed opened up about her mother’s cancer journey and how she was self-aware about her body which helped her in the early detection of cancer.
Dia had recently appeared on Kareena’s radio show, What Women Want, where the latter was seen discussing early tests for a woman at the age of 30. The Thappad actress revealed that it happened in 2019 when her mother was detected with cancer and it was in the first stage.
Dia told Kareena that it was due to early detection that her mother was able to skip radiation and chemotherapy. “This happened with my mother last year. She was diagnosed with first-stage cancer. And because of early detection, we could take her to the hospital and they conducted a mastectomy on her. And thankfully, touch wood, she didn’t even have to go through chemo or radiation. So she is cancer free,” revealed the Sanju actress.
The Lage Raho Munna Bhai actress said it is the best example that she has witnessed at her home while discussing the importance of the pap smear test and self-examination.
