Hina Khan
recently announced that she was diagnosed with stage three
breast cancer
. The actress has been sharing many motivational posts regarding her treatment. Now, she took to her Instagram handle to share her yet another brave move of cutting her long tresses. Hina posted a long note with a video where it was seen that she got her hair cut.
In the video, Hina's mother was extremely emotional, Hina said, 'Please don't cry, it's just hair mumma, baal hai.
Aap nahi cut karte ho, bas mumma, aapki tabiyat kharab ho jayegi.' She then cut the first strand of her hair by saying 'bismillah' and then after the whole cut Hina mentioned that she felt liberated.
In the long post, Hina wrote, "You can hear my mother’s wailing voice in Kashmiri (blessing me) in the background as she prepared herself to witness something she never dared to imagine. Not all of us have the same tools at our disposal to manage heartbreaking emotions."
She quipped, "To all the beautiful people out there, especially women who are fighting the same battle, I know it’s hard, I know for most of us, our hair is the crown we never take off. But what if you’re facing a battle so tough that you have to lose your hair—your pride, your crown? If you want to win you’ve got to take some tough decisions. And I choose to win."
Further added, "I have decided to give myself every chance possible to win this battle. I choose to let go of my beautiful hair before it starts falling off. I didn’t want to endure this mental breakdown for weeks. So, I choose to let go of my crown because I’ve realized my real crown is my
COURAGE
, my STRENGTH , and the love I have for myself. Aur haan.. I have decided to use my own hair to make a nice
Wig
for this phase. Hair will grow back, eyebrows will return, scars will fade, but the spirit must remains whole."
Hina continued to mention, "I am recording my story, my journey, to ensure that my efforts to embrace myself reach everyone out there. If my story can make even one day of this heartwarming yet excruciating experience better for someone, it’s worth it. Also this day couldn’t have gone as I hoped without the presence of the people who have taken a vow to
support
me thru thick and thin.. MY PEOPLE @rockyj1 MOM @heenaladjoshi @manaanmeer @sachinmakeupartist1"
