Author-turned-filmmaker Tahira Kashyap has been quite open about her battle with breast cancer. Tahira used to put out regular updates about her journey while she was going through it. However, there was one update that made her parents a little upset. Recently, in an interview, Tahira revealed that her parents were quite upset after she posted a picture of her bald self on social media.

My parents got really upset

In a new interview with Filmfare, Tahira shared that when she lost her hair due to chemotherapy and posted that picture, her parents were deeply upset. Ayushmann Khurrana`s wife stated, “My parents got really upset with me when I put up my bald picture (after the cancer diagnosis). A bald look for a woman is somehow synonymous with disaster, so they refused to talk to me and were forcing me to take it down. But I said, ‘I am not doing that. I am celebrating right now, which you need to understand.’ They actually thought I had lost it. They were like, ‘How can you celebrate physical illness?’”
