When Kirron Kher revealed how Anupam Kher was a little shaken during her Cancer diagnosis but son Sikandar Kher was very cool
Kirron Kher
was diagnosed with Cancer in 2020 and now that she has recovered from it, she had opened up on her journey in an interview. Kirron had spoken about how her family, husband
Anupam Kher
and son Sikander Kher had reacted to her illness.
She also opened up on her diagnosis and how the actual treatment of Cancer is more dangerous and has more side-effects.
Recalling how husband Anupam Kher was completely shaken as he got to know she has Cancer, Kirron said on News18's She Shakti event where she appeared along with Sikandar. The actor said, "It was end of 2020, I was shooting for my movie Monkey Man in Indonesia at that time. I was there for 4 months, everything is in a bubble so you are disconnected from the rest of the world.
Life plays it's cards the way it does. What do you do at that point? I think she is very strong that way, we were always there and are there for her throughout.
At the end of the day, life goes on and work goes on. There's nothing much that you can do, right?"
Kirron further added to what Sikandar said and revealed that he's never been emotional about it ever. She said, "I have never seen you being emotional about it ever. I wanted you to be a little bit but you were not."

Responding to it, Sikandar joked, "Main toh bimaari ke liye darr raha tha, maa. How can it mess with you? It can't mess with you. Galat jagah aagaye boss tum. Those conversations were between me and dad when I was in Bataam.
"
He went on to explain his approach, saying, 'The thing is, you have to be strong. You can't be saying 'Oh My God' around the person, it is going to kill all the good energy around you. Nobody is feeling good about it.
Unfortunately, the situation and what happened is one of the worst things that happen in the world.'
Kirron acknowledged his steady demeanor, contrasting it with Anupam's nervousness. 'Anupam used to look thoda sa ghabraaya hua when he used to come into my hospital room, but Sikander was cool. Every human is scared at one point in life about anything happening to them. But when it happens, the only option you have is to accept it,' she said.
Sharing more about her battle, Kirron revealed that the treatment was even more grueling than the illness itself. 'You have to get the treatment done. Bimaari se zyada khatarnaak ilaaj hai iska. The medicines and their side effects. The first 6-8 months were very tough, then God was kind. You leave it to the Lord. The Lord fights for me, who are we? We are nobodies,' she expressed.

He remained non-committal, saying that her return will be revealed in the future. While he didn't specifically comment on Harley, Gunn hinted that he is exploring ways to bring Idris Elba 's character, Bloodsport, back into the story and figuring out where he might fit in upcoming projects.

Robbie is at present in talks to play the lead in Tim Burton 's reimagining of 'Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman.'According to The Insneider, the 35-year-old actress is being considered for the lead role in the 66-year-old director's next Warner Bros. film, which she would also produce with her LuckyChap production company. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Rates Undo After an alien encounter turns a powerful heiress into a giant, the original 1958 vintage is a science-fiction horror tale about her seeking revenge on her cheating husband.

50 years of Sholay: Hema Malini says she will show the film to her grandchildren
'Sholay,' the biggest blockbuster of Indian cinema, celebrates its Golden Jubilee; Hema Malini shared with IANS that she wants to show the iconic film to her grandchildren. Hema Malini played the iconic role of Basanti in the film, a character that is remembered even today. When asked, "We are talking about Sholay even after fifty years. You have grandchildren. Have they seen 'Sholay'?" Replying to this, Hema Malini said, "I don't think so, but now that it has completed fifty years, I will show it to them. I will make them sit in my house one day and watch it in mini theater, definitely." Hema Malini also revealed that initially she was not happy with the role she was offered in 'Sholay' as she thought it was a small role as compared to her earlier hit films like 'Sita and Geeta.' She said, "When 'Sholay' was offered to me, after making 'Seeta Aur Geeta,' the same director, Ramesh Sippy , told me, 'So many other characters are there, and you are also one of them.' So I was feeling a little disappointed, thinking, 'Why only a small role for me? Why not a bigger role?" However, the actress was informed by the director that her role will have a big impact, and insisted that she accept the role. She further mentioned, "I had faith in him. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo So I said, 'Okay, I will do it.'

He said, 'That was different; this is different but similar.' And then they told me how the dialogue I'll be speaking and all that. And then because it's a long dialogue, I have to speak continuously, nonstop. So that was the beauty of the whole character. It was very witty and I was the only one who was giving relief in the film," she added. 'Sholay,' the most iconic film of Hindi cinema, was released on August 15, 1975. Although it initially received a lukewarm response at the box office, it gradually gained momentum through word of mouth.
