  • Hina Khan completes ice-dip challenge during stage 3 breast cancer treatment
  • Her doctor monitored vitals as she stayed in ice bath for up to five minutes
  • Hina plans to take ice baths every 15 days for her well-being

TV actress Hina Khan has once again motivated fans with her bravery and resolve. In the midst of her fight with stage 3 breast cancer, the actress recently set a daring challenge for herself and provided a look into that impactful experience in her newest YouTube video.

The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai star, recognized for her strength and optimism, shared a video of her participating in the ice-dip challenge.

In the video, Hina mentioned that she is attempting an ice dip for the first time, and her doctor is also present for this, recommending that she remain in for five minutes, which is significant for her.

Discussing the precautions to consider and the checks people should perform before attempting an ice dip, Hina mentioned that her vitals, blood pressure, and health assessment have been completed, and her doctor will monitor her vitals continuously during her time in the ice.

Hina added that after discussing with her doctors, while recovering from stage 3 breast cancer, she has chosen to take an ice bath every 15 days as recommended for her well-being.

She also disclosed that since it was her first experience, she felt quite anxious and frightened, questioning whether she could accomplish it or not.

However, her doctor explicitly stated that she wouldn’t allow her to remain for more than five minutes, while for a newcomer, staying in for just one minute is also regarded as acceptable.

Hina emphasized that ice-dipping is crucial and beneficial for her well-being. Finally, Hina successfully finished the challenge, demonstrating that she is a genuine ‘Sher Khan.’

Hina disclosed that she has asthma while filming the reality show Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi in 2017. It was in June 2024 that Hina disclosed that she has stage-3 breast cancer and stated that she is undergoing chemotherapy for her treatment.
