Dipika Kakar Liver Tumour Diagnosis Leaves Fans in Shock
Television star Dipika Kakar has been diagnosed with a serious health condition—a liver tumour, shocking her fans across the country. Her husband, actor Shoaib Ibrahim, revealed the news through a heartfelt vlog titled “Need Your Prayers,” where he detailed her symptoms, diagnosis, and upcoming surgery.
From Stomach Pain to Liver Tumour: Dipika Kakar’s Health Scare
Shoaib explained that Dipika began experiencing severe stomach pain while he was away for work in Chandigarh. “We initially thought it was acidity,” he said in Hindi. After initial treatment failed, their family doctor prescribed antibiotics and recommended blood tests. However, when the pain returned, further testing revealed an infection, prompting a CT scan.
The scan unveiled a shocking discovery—a Dipika Kakar liver tumour located in the left lobe. Measuring almost the size of a tennis ball, the tumour came as an emotional blow to the couple.
Hospitalization and Surgery Await
Dipika was immediately admitted to the hospital for further tests to determine whether the tumour is cancerous. Although most reports suggest it might not be malignant, the final and most crucial test results are still pending. In the meantime, Shoaib confirmed that Dipika Kakar’s liver tumour will need to be surgically removed.
“She is currently resting at home,” Shoaib added, “but she will be hospitalized again soon for surgery.” The couple has been visibly worried, not only about Dipika’s health but also about their young son, Ruhaan.
Shoaib revealed that doctors immediately hospitalised Dipika for further tests to determine if the tumour is cancerous. Although she has returned home for now, Dipika will be admitted again soon for surgery to remove the liver tumour.
He also mentioned that, while most test results so far don’t suggest cancer, they are awaiting additional reports for confirmation. A crucial test result is expected later this week. Shoaib confirmed that the upcoming surgery will focus on removing the tumour from her liver.
A Mother’s Fear: Being Away from Her Child
“Dipika started crying when she got the report—not for herself, but for our son,” Shoaib shared. Ruhaan is not used to being away from his mother, and the thought of separation has deeply affected both parents.
Shoaib concluded the video by requesting prayers from fans and even critics, saying, “You can hate us or troll us, but right now, we need your blessings.”
Fans and Colleagues Send Support
Messages of love and support have been pouring in for the couple. Dipika and Shoaib, who fell in love on the sets of Sasural Simar Ka, got married in 2018 and welcomed their first child in 2023. The news of the Dipika Kakar liver tumour has deeply moved fans who have followed the couple’s journey through television and social media.
