Dipika Kakar's first appearance
In the video, Dipika was heard saying, “Bas iss waqt itna hi bolungi — aap logon ne bohot duaein ki hain, uske liye dil se thank you. Hospital mein bhi staff, nurses, alag-alag jagahon se aake bol rahe the, 'Ma'am, aap theek ho jaoge.' Dusre patients ke relatives bhi bol rahe the, 'Hum aapke liye pray kar rahe the.' Unke apne bachhe, father hain, lekin phir bhi woh mere liye dua kar rahe the. Yeh saari cheezein bohot maayne rakhti hain. I am feeling much better. Bohot achhe se recovery ho rahi hai. Main ab kaafi better hoon.”(“I am extremely thankful to you all for keeping me in your prayers and thoughts. The nurses were also extremely kind and positive. Several others, including family members of other patients, were so nice and kind to me. I am feeling much, much better.”)
Dipika further said that she will interact with everyone later once she recovers and starts feeling better.
About Dipika's first surgery
In his vlog, Shoaib shared details about Dipika's first surgery. He said that her gall bladder and a small portion of her liver were removed. “Her tumour was taken out successfully. The gall bladder was also removed because of a stone. Since the liver had a tumour, a small part of it was also cut. There is nothing to stress about, as the liver is an organ that regenerates itself,” he said.
Dipika Kakar's cancer diagnosis
Dipika had earlier shared the news of her stage 2 liver cancer diagnosis with her fans. Sharing the news, she wrote, “As you all are aware, the last few weeks have been quite difficult for us… Walking into the hospital for a pain in the upper area of my stomach… and then finding out it’s a tennis ball-sized tumour in the liver and then finding out that the tumour is second-stage malignant (cancerous)… It has been one of the most difficult times we have seen and experienced!”
She added that doctors have assured her she will be cured following the surgical removal of the tumour.
