Hina Khan's Courageous Video Shows Her Cutting Hair Amid Breast Cancer Fight

Hina Khan recently revealed that she has been diagnosed with stage three breast cancer . Despite this challenge, the actress has been inspiring many with her courageous updates on social media. In her latest post on Instagram, she shared a significant moment: cutting her long hair. Alongside a video of this brave act, Hina posted a heartfelt message reflecting her journey and determination.

In the video, Hina's mother became deeply emotional. Hina comforted her, saying, '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 bravely cut the first strand, whispering 'bismillah'. After completing the haircut, Hina expressed a sense of liberation.

In the lengthy 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 jokingly remarked, "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."

"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 reiterated,"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"

Hina concluded with heartfelt thanks, "And a big thank you to @dwyessh_hairwizard for coming all the way from Santacruz after his hectic day at his salon to make this as comfortable as possible.. loved the haircut Dwyessh Thank you and love you. May God ease our pain and give us strength to be victorious Plz Pray Pray Pray for me."
