Writer-director Tahira Kashyap, popularly known for her film Sharmajee Ki Beti, took to Instagram a few minutes back, announcing her cancer diagnosis for the second time. Tahira, who is actor Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife, was earlier diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018. Taking her round two with a positive spirit, Tahira penned a note on social media declaring that she has ‘still got this’.
Sharing the news, Tahira wrote, “Seven-year itch or the power of regular screening- it’s a perspective, I had like to go with the latter and suggest the same for everyone who needs to get regular mammograms. Round 2 for me…I still got this.” She also wrote in the caption, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. When life becomes too generous and throws them again at you, you squeeze them calmly into your favourite kala khatta drink and sip it with all the good intentions. Because, for one, it’s a better drink, and two, you know you will give it your best once again. Ironically or not, today is World Health Day. Let’s do whatever we can in our capacity to take care of ourselves, gratitude through and through.”
