The initial announcement came a few weeks ago via Shoaib’s YouTube channel, where he shared his growing concern over Dipika’s deteriorating health. At the time, the couple was still awaiting confirmation on whether the tumour was benign or malignant.
Sadly, those fears were realised when Dipika herself confirmed the diagnosis last week. Despite the gravity of the situation, she remained courageous and composed as she informed her fans about the upcoming surgery. Her heartfelt message sparked a wave of support and love from admirers and fellow celebrities alike.
As previously reported, Dipika recently underwent an extensive 14-hour surgical procedure. Post-operation, she was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit in a stable condition. Yesterday, Shoaib provided a fresh update through a video message, bringing some much-needed relief to fans.
In the video, Shoaib revealed that Dipika has now been moved out of the ICU and is on the road to recovery. He also shared that the surgery involved the successful removal of the tumour along with a small portion of her liver, as required by the medical team. However, doctors reassured him that the liver is capable of regenerating itself, and there’s no cause for immediate concern.
Acknowledging the emotional toll of the ordeal, Shoaib added that the couple won’t be celebrating Eid at home this year. Yet, he expressed gratitude that on such a blessed occasion, Dipika had taken a significant step forward in her recovery.
He concluded the update by thanking fans and well-wishers for their continued prayers and support. Shoaib promised that once Dipika regains her strength, the two would appear together in a vlog to personally connect with their fans and well-wishers.
Undoubtedly, the news of Dipika’s recovery and positive progress has brought immense relief to her supporters, who continue to rally around the couple with unwavering love and strength.
