A father's love has rewritten the destiny of 21-year-old social media influencer Cuty Mendiratta, who is now recovering after receiving a life-saving kidney from her father.

It started with urine infection and later kidneys got involved, and she was put on medication till her kidneys were just 40 per cent working. Cuty's life came to a halt when she was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, as both of her kidneys had failed.

She suddenly found herself navigating through dialysis sessions, hospital corridors, and the emotional weight of uncertainty. As her health deteriorated, she disappeared from social media, leaving her followers worried and unaware of the storm she was fighting.

Behind the scenes, her father, Yogesh Mendiratta, remained her unwavering pillar of hope. When doctors recommended a kidney transplant, he stepped forward instantly.
