Television actor Dipika Kakar is once again dealing with a health setback, months after bravely undergoing treatment for liver cancer. Her husband, actor Shoaib Ibrahim, recently shared the update with fans through a vlog, revealing that Dipika has developed a 1.3 cm cyst in her stomach and will need to be hospitalised for a minor procedure.

Dipika Kakar talks about the cyst


Shoaib explained that the situation unfolded quite suddenly. “Today was another hospital visit. Everything seemed fine until yesterday. She had been having stomach pain for the past two days. Last night, the pain worsened, so we went to the doctor,” he said. Following medical advice, Dipika underwent a CT scan, which detected the cyst. “The scan showed a small cyst of about 1.3 cm. It’s very small, but she has had stomach and shoulder pain for two days, which worried both of us,” he added.



Dipika, however, reassured fans that doctors have clarified the source of her discomfort. “The doctors said the pain on the left side is not because of the cyst,” she shared, adding that the medical team is closely monitoring her condition.

Procedure for its removal

According to Shoaib, the good news is that no major surgery will be required. “There won’t be any major surgery. They will perform a small procedure to burn the cyst. She will need to be admitted for three to four days, and the procedure is scheduled for Tuesday,” he said, sounding cautiously optimistic.

Reflecting on how quickly life can change, Shoaib admitted, “Just yesterday, we were laughing and joking in the vlog, and today we are back at the hospital. But we are thankful to Allah that it was detected at an early stage.”

Dipika candidly spoke about her fear when she first learned about it. “Yes, I was very scared this morning. But I’m grateful we found out in time. That’s why regular follow-ups are so important. Even if there is slight pain, don’t ignore it… see a doctor immediately,” she urged.

As the couple prepares for the upcoming procedure, fans have flooded them with prayers and heartfelt wishes for Dipika’s speedy recovery.
