Mahina Chaudhary, a Bollywood actress, is battling breast cancer. Mahima recently spoke with legendary actor Anupam Kher about her challenges and the path she kept hidden from the rest of the world.
On Thursday, Kher posted a video of Mahima in which the actress sadly described her treatment story and revealed how she used to wear a wig after losing her hair and was inspired by a young boy.
The Kashmir Files actor captioned the video by saying, “You are my hero,” and revealing that he approached Chaudhry for a movie role after she told up about her breast cancer.
”What followed is in this candid conversation between us. Her attitude will give hope to so many women all over the world. She wanted me to be part of her disclosing it. She calls me an eternal optimist but dearest Mahima! “You are my HERO!” Friends! Send her your love, warmth, wishes, prayers and blessings. She is BACK on sets where she belongs. She is ready to fly. All those producers/directors out there! Here is your opportunity to tap on her brilliance! Jai ho to her!!🙏❤️ #Cancer #Courage #Hope #Prayers,” the caption reads.
Mahima, who is currently undergoing chemotherapy, claims to have identified malignant cells at an early stage. “I didn’t have any symptoms, and it was just an annual check-up when the person asked me to get this checked,” she explained in the video.
When she broke down later, she was told about the treatment. Her cancer, on the other hand, was in its early stages and ‘treatable.’
The Pardes actress is seen in the video with a bald head and wearing a colorful garment with a white tank top and gold chains.
Following the release of the video, many fans and industry friends wished her well.
Chunky Pandey wrote, ”With you forever my SuperGirl ❤️❤️❤️❤️”. Bhavna Pandey wrote, ”lots and lots of healing hugs”.
She made her acting debut in Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Pardes’ in 1997. She appeared in a number of films over her career, including ‘Daag’ and ‘Dhadkan,’ among others.
