Popular television actress Dipika Kakar, best known for her roles in Indian television dramas, continues to bravely fight her battle against stage 2 liver cancer, a diagnosis she first revealed in May this year.
In a heartfelt vlog shared recently, Dipika admitted that while she has slowly adapted to the side effects of treatment, one particular struggle remains deeply painful — extreme hair loss. She described how after a shower, the sight of hair falling in large amounts leaves her shaken, forcing her to withdraw into silence for several minutes. “It is very scary for me,” she confessed.
Despite these emotional lows, Dipika also shared encouraging news with her fans. Her recent tumour marker tests and liver function tests came back normal, leading doctors to advise against further scans for now, suggesting a wait of two more months.
The actress, who underwent a 14-hour-long surgery in June, has been transparent about her journey, often updating her followers alongside her husband, actor Shoaib Ibrahim. While doctors have confirmed there are no current signs of cancer cells, they remain cautious given the aggressive nature of her tumour.
Dipika first revealed her diagnosis in May, recalling how a simple visit to the hospital for stomach pain led to the shocking discovery of a tumour the size of a tennis ball. The news turned her and her family’s life upside down, but her resilience has inspired countless fans.
On the work front, Dipika was last seen in Celebrity MasterChef, but she had to step away due to health reasons. The show was eventually won by actor Gaurav Khanna.
As she continues her treatment, Dipika’s courage and honesty in sharing the toughest moments of her journey have struck a chord with many. Her story is not just one of struggle, but also of hope, resilience, and the power of staying connected with loved ones through difficult times.
