The actress, known for her roles in popular Indian TV shows like “Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai” and her strong presence on social media, revealed that she is wearing a wig made from her own hair after losing it for a chemotherapy session due to cancer treatment.

Losing hair is often one of the most visible and challenging aspects of cancer treatment, especially for women. By choosing to make a wig from her own hair, Hina has found a way to preserve a part of herself, holding onto the identity and confidence that her hair represents.
She posted a video with a heartwarming note,
“The moment I was diagnosed, I knew I’d lose my hair, I chose to cut it off on my own terms while it was still healthy, long and vibrant. I decided to make a wig of my OWN hair that would bring me comfort during this challenging time. And I must say It was an empowering decision, and I’m so proud of it.
And I want to send out a special message to all my Women brave hearts out there who are going through similar struggles.. if you resonate with my decision and agree with it ..I suggest you too do the same .. it will make at least one thing much easier and you will feel better.. you will feel home.
You know, It feels like somehow I am reunited with my lost hair when I wear it. It feels good, it feels cozy and it feels like home. It’s just a phase, I knew I will have to go through and decided preemptively to Normalise it first for my self and now that I have been using it, I thought it will be a good story to share with all of you.
Because you guys have been like a dream .. it’s so heartwarming, reassuring and encouraging to see your response wherever I go, whenever I step out, my god so much love and concern is directed towards me. It is so overwhelming to see a stranger’s eyes welling up in concern when they wish me a speedy recovery.. I am just blown away with the positivity you guys send me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I know the world is praying for me
Lekin Phir bhi
Dua please 🤲”
