Darpan News Desk IANS, 17 Jan, 2019 09:40 PM

    Writer-director and actor Ayushmann Khurrana's wife Tahira Kashyap, who was diagnosed with breast cancer and is going through preventive mastectomy, has gone bald. She says it is liberating and feels good.

     

    On Wednesday, Tahira tweeted a photograph of her "new" self.

     
     
     

    "Hello world! That's a new me with the old self! Was getting tired of the extensions. Well this is how it is and it's so liberating, so much so that I don't have to duck the shower while bathing or while picking up the soap! Never thought I had to go bald, but this feels good," she captioned the image.

     
     

    Ayushmann re-tweeted Tahira's photograph and called her a "hottie".

     
     

    Hrithik Roshan also re-shared the post on his handle and captioned it, “Amazing”. Deepika Padukone too found Tahira’s new look “HOT!!!” Sacred Games’ Kubra Sait and author Twinkle Khanna called her ‘gangsta’. Check out more tweets:

     
     

    Writer-director Tahira Kashyap Khurrana was diagnosed with early signs of breast cancer in September, last year. She has been open about her diagnosis and treatment over the months. Last week, Tahira took to social media to share her joy as she underwent her final chemotherapy session.

     

    “Can’t keep calm!!! Last and final chemo! F**k yesss!! It’s been some journey. The learning has been immense, some of which, I know, I will realise with time. Thank you to each one who has been praying for me! Lots of love and prayers from my end to each one of you! My heart is bouncing with joy and gratitude,” she had written.
