Manisha Koirala: I Think Cancer Came Into My Life As A Gift. My Vision Is Sharper, My Mind Clearer, My Perspective Realigned

MAKERS India•3 February 2021

Today, on world cancer day, we bring to you the words by Manisha Koirala. The actor who has battled and recovered from ovarian cancer in 2014 says, "don’t let societal shame or pressure keep you tied to a situation. Ask for help. Reach out. If you keep on enduring it silently, your body will become a host to potential diseases.”

(Video by Venkatesh)
