Actress Hina Khan announced that she was battling stage 3 breast cancer in June this year. As the actress began her spirited journey to overcome this illness, she also inspired many. In the course of her treatment, one emotional moment for the Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actress and her family was when she had to cut her hair as she undergoes chemotherapy. On Wednesday, the actress revealed how she got a wig made from her real hair to feel comfortable during this tough phase.
Sharing a video, Hina Khan penned a long note on social media, explaining to women who are in similar situations why this was an empowering decision. Hina wrote, “The moment I was diagnosed, I knew I’d lose my hair, I chose to cut it off on my own terms while it was still healthy, long, and vibrant. I decided to make a wig of my OWN hair that would bring me comfort during this challenging time. And I must say It was an empowering decision, and I’m so proud of it. And I want to send out a special message to all my Women brave hearts out there who are going through similar struggles… if you resonate with my decision and agree with it… I suggest you do the same. It will make at least one thing much easier and you will feel better, you will feel at home.”

The note further read, “You know, it feels like somehow I am reunited with my lost hair when I wear it. It feels good, it feels cozy and it feels like home. It’s just a phase, I knew I would have to go through, and decided preemptively to normalize it first for myself and now that I have been using it, I thought it would be a good story to share with all of you. Because you guys have been like a dream, it’s so heartwarming, reassuring, and encouraging to see your response wherever I go, my god, so much love and concern is directed towards me. It is so overwhelming to see a stranger’s eyes welling up in concern when they wish me a speedy recovery. I am just blown away by the positivity you guys send me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know the world is praying for me. Lekin Phir bhi dua please!”
