Popular Indian television actress Dipika Kakar has been diagnosed with stage 2 malignant liver cancer, causing concern among her fans and followers. According to recent reports, Dipika underwent a major surgery that lasted nearly 14 hours. Her husband, actor Shoaib Ibrahim, shared the latest update on her health via Instagram.
Currently in ICU Post-Surgery, Says Shoaib Ibrahim
Shoaib Ibrahim revealed that although the surgery was extremely long and complex, it was successful. In his Instagram story, he mentioned that Dipika is currently under observation in the ICU and is in a stable condition, though experiencing some discomfort. “It was a long and challenging surgery, but by God’s grace, she is stable now,” Shoaib said.
Fans’ Prayers Mean Everything, Says Shoaib

How the Diagnosis Was Made
Dipika Kakar began experiencing severe abdominal pain a few weeks ago, along with flu symptoms. Concerned, Shoaib took her to the doctor where a scan revealed a tumor in her liver the size of a tennis ball. A biopsy later confirmed the diagnosis of stage 2 liver cancer.
