Dipika Kakar and Shoaib Ibrahim have been going through one of the toughest chapters of their lives, but their latest update brings a small ray of hope. Dipika Kakar, who has been battling stage 2 liver cancer, recently had a health scare when scans detected two new small cysts, though her husband Shoaib Ibrahim confirmed that surgery isn’t happening and she has instead started immunotherapy sessions.
In her latest vlog, Dipika opened up candidly with fans about both her treatment and her father-in-law’s condition. She shared that the past few days have been very difficult since her father-in-law was hospitalized, but added that he is getting better with each passing day, calling it a big relief for the whole family.

On her own treatment journey, Dipika gave fans an honest look at what immunotherapy has been like so far. She revealed she recently underwent a session of double immunotherapy, with upcoming sessions continuing through IV treatment, and so far hasn’t experienced major side effects besides some back pain and a slight fever once. Going forward, doctors will monitor her health through regular blood tests, tumour marker tests, scans, and other investigations.
Perhaps the most touching part of the update was about Shoaib himself. Dipika shared that she believes Shoaib is going through the toughest phase right now, having already been worried about her health over the past year, and now dealing with his father’s hospitalization on top of it — yet handling everything very strongly.
