Shoaib Ibrahim thanked God for removing the malignant tumour from Dipika Kakar’s liver, but also claimed that further treatment is pending. “I’m just glad that Dipika is with me and Ruhaan (their son) on my birthday. The surgery is behind us and she’s safe. She’s recovering gradually. But since there’s a flu doing the rounds, she still has a cold,” added Shoaib.

He revealed that they’d planned a grand celebration for Ruhaan’s second birthday this month, but God had other plans. Shoaib then showed a glimpse of the decoration for his birthday in the hall and faces of his family members present for the occasion. Dipika could be spotted too, but she had her face covered with a surgical mask as a precautionary measure.

While cutting the cake, Shoaib Ibrahim didn’t feed a slice to Dipika Kakar and explained that she’s not eating food outside of home as a precautionary measure. Dipikar said that she’s saved a few sips of the protein shake, which she’ll have later in the day to celebrate Shoaib’s birthday. Later, the Sasural Simar Ka removed her mask and addressed the fans with moist eyes.

Bad thoughts crop up in your head despite being strong and brave, says Dipika Kakar

“When you hear a news like that, bad thoughts crop up in your head despite being strong and brave. I thank the almighty that I’m home and we’re all together. I also thank Him for having Shoaib in my life. I’ve never said it to him personally,” said Dipika. She added that Shoaib loves her “unconditionally,” and is her “strength,” “life,” and “backbone.”
