Television actress Dipika Kakar, who had been diagnosed with stage 2 liver cancer, recently went through an extensive 14-hour surgery. In her first vlog following the procedure, she revealed that she is now “tumour-free” and spoke about the emotional moment when she and her husband, Shoaib Ibrahim, learned about her diagnosis from the doctor.
Dipika Kakar shares emotional journey on her Cancer battle; says, “Shoaib gave me the strength to face it all”
In her YouTube video, Dipika recalled, “I will never forget the day we went to the doctor to show him my CT scan. By then, the AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein tumour marker) test report had also come in. Shoaib already knew the result but hadn’t told me. While the doctor was reviewing the report, I asked Shoaib about it. He simply looked at me and said, ‘Yes, there’s something wrong.’ I immediately said, ‘Show me the report.’ And when I saw it, I realized that it wasn’t just a small issue — it was something very serious.”
She went on to reveal that in that moment, standing in the hospital corridor, she broke down in tears—and Shoaib did too, despite rarely crying. Dipika shared that she hugged him tightly, overwhelmed with fear after hearing the words “malignant” and “cancer.”
Dipika added, “At that moment, I had thousands of fears in my mind about Ruhaan… so many negative thoughts were running through my head—mostly worst-case scenarios. But just like always, Shoaib gave me a tight hug and gave me the strength to face it all.”
Dipika shared that while the doctor was explaining her diagnosis, the first thing she asked was whether it was malignant. When the doctor confirmed it was, she broke down completely—and so did Shoaib.
She also revealed that she had to abruptly stop breastfeeding her son, Ruhaan, overnight after learning about her cancer diagnosis.
