Hina Khan On Life After Cancer Diagnosis: "People Are Hesitant To Work With Me"
Mumbai: A year after Indian TV star Hina Khan announced her breast cancer diagnosis, she says she can sense that people from the industry are still hesitant to work with her. The actor said work took a backseat after she fell ill, and she had to leave a lot of offers. She is now back on the small screen with "Pati Patni Aur Panga". 'This is my first project after the whole thing (breast cancer diagnosis) happened. I want to work. No one has directly said to me, 'You've still not recovered completely', but I can sense that maybe people are hesitant (to work with me) for all the right reasons. "It's okay. I'll have to break that norm. Maybe the show will do it, I understand it. Had I been in their place, I would've thought about it a thousand times. I'm open to auditions, where did I stop? No one has called me for the last one year, for all the reasons. I'm open to everything, please call me,' Khan told PTI in an interview. The 37-year-old actor, known for shows such as 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai', 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2', 'Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 8' and 'Bigg Boss 11', said she feels glad to have made a comeback to work with her ongoing reality show, which is currently on air on Colors Channel. The show features fan-favourite celebrity couples, including Hina Khan-Rocky Jaiswal, Debinna Bonnerjee-Gurmeet Choudhary, Rubina Dilaik-Abhinav Shukla, Avika Gor-Milind Chandwani, Swara Bhasker-Fahad Ahmad, Geeta Phogat-Pawan Kumar, and Sudesh Lehri-Mamta Lehri. The show stars celebrity couples competing against each other as they open their hearts and homes to take on fun challenges. 'It was a big step for me to take up the show and it was an experiment as far as my health is concerned, like whether I'll be able to do it or not. So far so good, I get tired a bit, but apart from that, everything is fine. I'm ready to take up anything, be it a digital show, or anything, I would not take up long term commitment. If anything is offered (in films), if they find me worthy enough, then why not,' Khan said. The actor said she is keen to play a spy agent. 'I want to be part of the spy universe, be it in OTT or in films. I was watching a show, 'Special Ops', I so wanted to play a spy, manifesting it,' Khan said.

Hina Khan Says She's Not Getting Work Since A Year Amid Cancer Treatment: 'Please Call Me'
Last Updated: After a year away battling cancer, Hina Khan returns to TV but says she can sense hesitation from the industry about casting her again. Hina Khan is making her TV return after a tough year – but she admits not everyone in the industry seems ready to work with her again. The actor, who revealed her breast cancer diagnosis last year, says her illness forced her to step away from multiple projects and turn down offers. Now back on screen with Pati Patni Aur Panga, Hina is ready to work, though she can still sense hesitation from others. 'This is my first project after the whole thing happened. I want to work. No one has directly said to me that, 'You've still not recovered completely', but I can sense that maybe people are hesitant for all the right reasons," she told PTI. Hina said she understands the caution but is determined to change minds. 'It's okay. I'll have to break that norm. Maybe the show will do it, I understand it. Had I been in their place, I would've thought about it a thousand times." The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai star added that despite the silence from casting calls over the past year, she's fully open to new roles. 'I'm open to auditions, where did I stop? No one has called me for the last one year, for all the reasons. I'm open to everything, please call me." For Hina, returning to television through a reality show felt like the right move. She appears alongside her partner Rocky Jaiswal on Pati Patni Aur Panga, currently airing on Colors Channel. The series also features popular celebrity couples including Debinna Bonnerjee–Gurmeet Choudhary, Rubina Dilaik–Abhinav Shukla, Avika Gor–Milind Chandwani, Swara Bhasker–Fahad Ahmad, Geeta Phogat–Pawan Kumar, and Sudesh Lehri–Mamta Lehri. Known for memorable turns in Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2, Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 8, and Bigg Boss 11, Hina's comeback marks a new chapter – one she hopes will remind the industry she's still ready to give her all on screen.
