Writer and filmmaker Tahira Kashyap recently revealed that her breast cancer has returned after seven years. The announcement came on World Health Day, when she shared the news with fans through a heartfelt post on social media. But now, after receiving a round of treatment, Tahira has shared a new update—she’s back home and recovering.
On Wednesday night, Tahira posted a bright and cheerful photo of herself holding a sunflower, symbolizing hope and positivity. In the caption, she wrote,
“Basking in all the love and prayers! They are magical. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Back home and recovering.”
She also expressed deep gratitude for the support she’s received from both people she knows and those she’s never met.
“Some of you know me, and some don’t, but I receive all your love with grace,” she wrote. “This kind of connection beyond relationships is called humanity—and it’s the highest form of spirituality.”
The post received a wave of love from fans and celebrities alike. Her husband, actor Ayushmann Khurrana, responded with a simple heart emoji, showing his silent support. Actor Rajkummar Rao commented, “The strongest girl ever. Sending lots of love to you, Tahira.”
Television host and actress Mandira Bedi wrote, “I’m saying a prayer for you every day.”
Actress Hina Khan, who is also undergoing cancer treatment, dropped a heart emoji and Tahira’s name in a show of solidarity.
Earlier this week, Tahira had shared the emotional news about her cancer returning. On April 7, she wrote a long message on Instagram to raise awareness about the importance of regular health checkups and mammograms.
“Seven-year itch or the power of regular screening—it’s how you look at it,” she wrote. “I had to go for Round 2… but I still got this.”
Tahira continued the post with her signature sense of humor and strength.
“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. But when life throws lemons at you again, make a kala khatta drink and enjoy it calmly. Because one—it’s tastier. And two—you know you’ve got this.”
She used hashtags like #regularscreening, #mammogram, and #breastcancer to encourage others to take their health seriously and not be afraid to talk about it.
Her powerful words ended with a reminder:
“Let’s do whatever we can in our capacity to take care of ourselves. #gratitude through and through.”
Conclusion:
Tahira Kashyap’s courage and honesty have touched the hearts of many. From raising awareness about breast cancer to inspiring fans with her strength, she continues to be a symbol of hope and resilience. As she recovers at home, her message is clear—never stop fighting, and always find light even in the darkest times.
