Recently, the actress revealed meeting with actor Sanjay Dutt during her cancer battle. Expressing her gratitude towards the actor, she admitted how Sanjay Dutt had encouraged her in the most heartwarming gesture.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Hina Khan opened up about her surprise meeting with Sanjay Dutt. Hina confirmed receiving a call from the actor after she posted a message praising his journey after his cancer diagnosis. In the post, shared last month, Hina Khan said that Dutt’s “determination” to battle the disease was an inspiration for her.
She was taken aback to discover that Dutt had seen her post and taken the time to express gratitude. Hina told Sanjay Dutt that she needed his encouragement and that his struggle had inspired her. She further expressed her wish to meet him. As a result, Sanjay Dutt invited her for a heartwarming meeting.
The 37-year-old actress said, “The next day, I met him. He was shooting somewhere. We spent some time together. We discussed our journeys. Throughout this, this positive person kept telling me, ‘Hina, remember, you never had cancer, you don’t have it, and you will never have it. Just remember this. Kuch nahi hai (There’s nothing’).”
Hina Khan revealed that Sanjay Dutt’s journey against cancer actually inspired her. “I was shocked that it reached out to him. I intended to put it out to people to spread positivity, and I realised that there’s even this way to handle it. Even I did it. I did everything throughout my chemotherapy. But I never thought he would reach out to me,” she added.
The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actor said that Priya Dutt, Sanjay Dutt’s sister, was also aware of her diagnosis. She further described Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt as “positive and kind-hearted people.” Hina Khan added, “These people only know how to make everyone feel better.” Meanwhile, the actress has been active on her social media handle and keeps updating her fans about her health.
