Tahira Kashyap shares hilarious anecdotes from her time in hospital during cancer treatment: 'Hospitals and music are deeply and surgically connected'

Taking to Instagram today, Tahira shared a thread of posts on Instagram in which she shared light-hearted anecdotes from the time she was undergoing surgery for her cancer treatments.

Noted director and Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife, Tahira Kashyap, is currently recovering at home following recent treatment and therapy for breast cancer. Her cancer relapsed for the second time and now she has shared a humorous incident from her hospital stay.

Taking to Instagram today, Tahira shared a thread of posts on Instagram in which she shared light-hearted anecdotes from the time she was undergoing surgery for her cancer treatments. The caption read, "Hospitals and music are deeply and surgically connected! #HospitalChronicles (Read each one with its music piece)"

In the first slide of her post, Tahira recounted how her doctor played the song Kal Ho Naa Ho during her treatment. It was moment she found ironically fitting given her situation. "As I entered the scanning and imaging area, the doc there perhaps in his attempt to make the mood lighter had his playlist on. This was the song that was playing as I lay down ready to be taken inside! I gulped and said, "Sir I appreciate your gesture but pls isse toh band hi kardo!"

She further described which song played in her mind as she was in the operation theatre. "In the OT the lovely anaesthesiologist asked me which song would I like to listen to before being knocked out. I saw all the tools coming in and being prepped in the trays. This was the song playing in my head!" the second slide of the post read.

She also mentioned, "Hours after the surgery the doc asked me to take few rounds around the corridor. Little did I know that I would be privy to other patients choice of consuming news. This 70 year old lady with her room's door ajar was keenly listening to an actor's love life and the disclosure of his recent relationship. Few minutes later I saw her stumbling out of her room racing ahead of me. I can swear I heard her saying agar yeh itna dangal macha sakten hain toh main kyon nahi!' I always knew the power of cinema both on and off the screen!"

On April 7, Tahira took to Instagram to reveal that her cancer has returned after seven years. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2018.
