Dipika Kakar to undergo her liver tumour surgery tomorrow after being diagnosed with cancer; husband Shoaib Ibrahim writes ‘It's going to be a long one'
Television actress Dipika Kakar , best known for her role in Sasural Simar Ka, is all set to undergo surgery tomorrow morning after being diagnosed with stage 2 liver cancer. The heartbreaking news was shared by her husband and fellow actor Shoaib Ibrahim , who has been by her side through this difficult phase. In an emotional note, Shoaib informed fans, 'Dippi's surgery is scheduled to happen tomorrow morning. It's going to be a long surgery. She needs all your prayers and strength the most. Please keep her in your prayers.' He earlier revealed that doctors had found a tennis ball-sized tumour in Dipika's liver during a series of medical tests, initially prompted by stomach pain and flu symptoms. While the surgery was earlier postponed due to severe congestion in Dipika's chest along with cold and cough, the couple had been waiting for a go-ahead from doctors at Kokilaben Hospital in Mumbai. 'The doctors advised waiting as surgery in this condition could be risky,' Shoaib shared. Now that her condition is stable enough for surgery, Dipika is preparing to face a major medical procedure with courage and faith. She recently opened up about the shocking series of events that led to her diagnosis. 'Walking into the hospital for a pain in the upper area of my stomach… and then finding out it's a tennis ball-sized tumour in the liver, and then finding out that the tumour is second-stage malignant—it has been one of the most difficult times we have seen and experienced,' she wrote. Fans and colleagues from the television industry have poured in love and well-wishes for Dipika, as she readies herself for a critical surgery that could mark the beginning of her healing journey.

Exclusive - Aadesh Chaudhary embraces the digital shift: OTT platforms let me explore as an actor
Aadesh Chaudhary, a familiar face in Indian television, has been winning hearts for years with his nuanced performances and grounded on-screen persona. From portraying sensitive leads to intense supporting characters, Aadesh has carved a niche for himself in the television industry through a string of memorable roles in popular serials like Laagi Tujhse Lagan, Sasural Simar Ka, Yeh Dil Sun Raha Hai, and Diya Aur Baati Hum. Each of these shows not only cemented his standing as a dependable actor but also showcased his ability to bring emotional authenticity to every role. The actor describes his shift to digital as both organic and deeply aspirational. 'I have done a lot of television, and when the OTT boom happened, I really wished to see myself on big OTT platforms,' he shares. 'So I thought, why not try something new and challenging in the OTT world?' True to his words, Aadesh has already begun making his mark in the digital space. His roles in web projects such as Sabse Bada Rupaiya, Chitta Ve, The H Files, and Bhram have shown a refreshing versatility, allowing him to shed the constraints of conventional television tropes and explore characters with greater psychological depth and narrative complexity.

'Unpredictability is a part of this industry,' he acknowledges. 'I've learned to accept that and move forward with an open mind. I take one day at a time, and I try to remain grounded. At the end of the day, what matters most is happiness and creative fulfillment. That's what I'm chasing now.' Even when he's not on set, Aadesh stays connected to his craft. 'I keep watching films, working on monologues, and doing acting exercises. It helps me stay sharp, stay ready. As an actor, you have to keep feeding your passion.' While his current focus is the digital realm, Aadesh hasn't ruled out a return to the small screen. 'I'm absolutely open to television,' he says with sincerity. 'If the role is strong and the story excites me, I won't hesitate. For me, it's not about the medium—it's about the work. Whether it's a web series, a film, or a TV show, if my heart is in it, I'm all in.' Rubina Dilaik stuns in red dress at laughter chefs season 2 shoot

Hrithik Roshan Joins Forces With Hombale Films, Dipika Kakar Diagnosed With Liver Cancer
Last Updated: Hrithik Roshan teams up with Hombale Films. Dipika Kakar diagnosed with stage 2 liver cancer. Deepika Padukone replaced in Spirit. Hrithik Roshan has teamed up with Hombale Films for a new movie that's already got fans excited. The makers say the film will be filled with strength, big visuals, and powerful moments. They've promised a mix of strong emotions and fresh, creative storytelling. TV actress Dipika Kakar has shared a sad and emotional update with her fans — she has been diagnosed with stage 2 liver cancer. Best known for her role in Sasural Simar Ka, Dipika posted the news on Instagram, revealing that it all started with severe stomach pain. When she went to the doctor, they found a tumour in her liver, about the size of a tennis ball. Tests later confirmed it was cancer. Deepika Padukone is once again making headlines, this time over rumours that she was dropped from director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's next film, Spirit. Reports suggest that Deepika was replaced after she allegedly asked for a higher fee and wanted to work only 8 hours a day. In contrast, Triptii Dimri was brought in for the role at a lower fee. In the middle of all this, an old clip from the promotions of Chhapaak (2020) has gone viral again. In the video, Deepika, who also produced the film, firmly addressed rumours that her husband Ranveer Singh was funding her projects. 'Excuse me, yeh mere khud ke paise hain. Kisne bola yeh? Yeh meri khud ki mehnat hai," she said. Read story here: Tamannaah Blames Instagram For 'Liking' Deepika Clip, Fans Recall Virat Kohli-Avneet Kaur Row Just days after singer Kenishaa Francis filed a legal complaint over the online abuse and defamation she faced regarding actor Ravi Mohan's separation from his wife, there's a new twist in the story. Ravi Mohan has now taken legal action himself — this time against his wife Aarti Ravi and mother-in-law Sujatha Vijaykumar. According to reports, the actor has sent them a legal notice over their social media posts, which he claims have been defamatory and caused serious harm to his reputation. Kannappa is turning out to be one of the biggest films to look forward to, with a massive star cast and a grand scale. Vishnu Manchu, who plays the lead role, recently revealed a heartwarming detail about the film's making. Big stars like Prabhas, Mohanlal, and Akshay Kumar are part of the project. He said that Prabhas and Mohanlal didn't charge a single penny from him for their role in the film. These were the newsmakers of the day. First Published: May 28, 2025, 21:46 IST
