News India Live, Digital Desk: Actress Mahima Chaudhary, who became an overnight star with the film ‘Pardes’, is known for her smile and strong acting. But a few years ago, a storm came in his life, which shook him badly. Mahima was diagnosed with breast cancer. Recently she talked about her difficult battle and how a routine check-up saved her life. When a routine check-up changed everything, Mahima revealed that she did not have any symptoms of cancer. She was feeling completely healthy. She told, “I get my routine health check-up done every year. During that time, my doctor advised me to get another test done along with mammography. When the report came, some cells were found abnormal in it, which were sent for biopsy.” When the biopsy report came, it revealed the initial stage of breast cancer. Mahima said, “I was shocked to hear this. I had no idea that something like this was happening inside my body. If I had not done that routine check-up, perhaps it would never have been known and it would have been too late.” A phone call from Anupam Kher gave courage. While Mahima was going through this battle, she got a call from veteran actor Anupam Kher. He wanted to sign Mahima for his film ‘The Signature’. When Mahima tearfully told him about her illness, Anupam Kher not only gave her courage but also convinced her to share her story with the world. Anupam Kher recorded a video of her and posted it on social media, after which Mahima got the love and support of people from all over the world. She defeated cancer and became an inspiration for millions of people. Mahima underwent chemotherapy, due to which she also had to lose her hair. He completed the shooting of the film ‘The Signature’ wearing a wig. Now Mahima Chaudhary is completely cancer free and is living a healthy life. Her story is a great lesson for every woman who ignores her health. This reminds us how important it is to have regular health checkups, even if you feel completely healthy.
