Tahira was diagnosed with cancer in 2018. She shared the news on Instagram in a post. She wrote, “I was detected with DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) in my right breast with high-grade malignant cells. Simply put stage 0 cancer/pre-cancerous stage, with cancer cells multiplying in a contained area. This mastectomy has left me with even more self-love! Mine has made me a 2.0 version of myself! This post is dedicated to awareness, self love and resilience of a warrior that I know each one of us possesses.”
The pair has had many highs and lows along the way, and they have matured into two strong people. While Ayushmann has established himself as a bankable actor, Tahira has emerged as a formidable force in filmmaking and narrative, with novels, short films, and even an Oscar-nominated short film titled 'Bittu' to her credit.
