Tahira Kashyap, a renowned filmmaker and author, is preparing to walk the runway for the impending fashion show of renowned designer Manish Malhotra, which will honour cancer survivors. Kashyap will be the focal point of this unique event, featuring prominent actresses Sonali Bendre and Hina Khan as the main figures. The event will emphasize their struggles with cancer.
Manish Malhotra’s show will illuminate the resilience and fortitude of these remarkable women as they assume the spotlight. Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri, Bollywood stars, will also be strolling the ramp in addition to Tahira, Sonali, and Hina, thereby enhancing the event’s star power. Nevertheless, the show’s genuine essence is rooted in the involvement of cancer survivors, and Tahira, Sonali, and Hina are at the forefront of this movement.
In 2018, Tahira Kashyap was diagnosed with stage 0 breast cancer (ductal carcinoma in situ). She underwent chemotherapy and a mastectomy during her treatment, which was concluded in 2019. In 2018, Sonali Bendre also confronted stage 4 metastatic cancer. She received treatment in New York and achieved remission in 2021. Hina Khan, who was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in June 2024, has been courageously sharing her journey on social media, inspiring her followers with updates on her treatment.
This fashion show will be a significant event, as it will emphasize the fortitude of cancer survivors and the elegance of Malhotra’s designs.
