Ayushmann Khurrana gets the sweetest birthday wish from Tahira Kashyap

Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap were spotted together along with two kids and fur baby

Being a parent is not easy. We all have crazy stories from our childhood where our parents forgot to pick us up from school someday and how dad was never able to recall which standard we studied in and had to call mom to confirm for PTM. However, it’s crazy to even think a parent would forget their own child behind in a shop or a restaurant. Well, it happens too. Actor Ayushmann Khurrana’s wife Tahira Kashyap recently shared an ‘embarrassing’ incident where she forgot her son after having lunch at a restaurant with her friends. © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap In an interview regarding her latest book, ‘The 7 Sins Of Being A Mother’, Kashyap recalled the story of how she was reminded by a restaurant staff who came running to her with the news that she had forgotten her child behind. © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap “I also forgot my child in a restaurant. I did not forget the bag or the bill but I forgot my child. The waiter came running to me and said ‘Maam aap apna baccha bhool gae’ (Maam you forgot your kid)’. I was so embarrassed and people were staring at me,” she said. © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap Obviously, the weird stares followed but parents make these mistakes all the time. Especially, moms who are occupied with a million things at once are ought to and are allowed to make a few slip-ups here and there. © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap Tahira and Ayushmann have two kids, a son Virajveer Khurrana and a daughter Varushka Khurrana. She said that she has made these mistakes and it keeps happening. She has even dropped her kids to school on a public holiday. © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap She said, “I have done those, I have dropped my kids school on public holidays, only to get those looks from the kids. These blunders do not cease to happen even today but now I am more forgiving of myself. Even during my illness, when my mom took over things. She was the one who gave their tiffins to the children and I was worried ‘Oh, she gave cheese sandwiches to them two days in a row. How unhealthy!’ But now I am like ‘how does it even matter?’ Now I have learnt to let go.” © Instagram/Tahira Kashyap No matter how brilliantly you are bringing up your children and how careful you are as a parent, there are bound to be a misstep along the way since it’s not easy being a parent. People will judge no matter what, and that’s okay, unless and until your child is safe, loved and cared for, of course. View the full article

It was a Sunday and my dad had allowed me to take his car for your party. And out of all your school friends you’d chosen to sit in my car. It was quite overwhelming for me as I was from an all boys school. Thank you for choosing me. I owe everything to you. Your compassion. Your empathy. Your character. Your sense of humour. Your sense of scripts. You. Happy birthday to the best human I know! Umm.. (P.S - the first one was your latest pic in my phone album. Freshly clicked. Sorry didn’t take your approval before uploading it, since you are sleeping. Thought it looked great."

Whenever we talk of fairy-tale romances, Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap’s love story is bound to pop in the mind of any Bollywood buff. They look just perfect together and many youngsters swear by their love story. Tahira Kashyap and Ayushmann Khurrana, who marked 19 years of togetherness this year, got married in 2008 after dating for several years. Recently, Tahira's book titled 12 Commandments Of Being A Woman which has some insane revelations about their relationship was published and she has been addressing them in her recent interviews ever since. View this post on Instagram Here are five secrets about their relationship that will make you believe that they are extremely relatable for any couple who have been through ups and downs. 1. In the book and her recent interview, Tahira revealed how they watched Shah Rukh Khan’s Asoka 11 times because that was their perfect make-out spot. “We were in college and these were the days of single theatres. There was this theatre opposite our college called Nirmaan. Chandigarh is a small city and you don’t get places to make out. So Shah Rukh Khan’s movie Asoka was playing and I used to bunk my college at times and we used to see this film. The first time, of course, we watched it very intently as we both are fans but after that, we saw it 11 times and we were very busy (making out),” she said. This particular incident reminds us of how romance was for 90s college students. View this post on Instagram 2. Just like any other relationship, they too had insecurities involved. The worst fears came in when Ayushmann’s longest kiss in Nautanki Saala became the hot topic of discussion. Ayushmann wanted to ease her insecurities and he called her to the sets. In her book, she wrote, “I was burning with jealousy. My anger and insecurity crossed Virat Kohli’s runs. I never went to my boy’s sets. He was too conscious; that’s how he has always been. I knew this but my insecurities were getting the better of me, and I blamed him for hiding things from me. So one day, to put my fears to rest, he invited me to come with him. My boy kept trying to soothe my fears as best he could and asked me to come with him on his promotional tour. As I was driving with him and the director in the car, the latter was talking about how people were loving the kissing scene, how it was hilarious, kiss . . . something . . . kiss . . . something something . . . kiss . . . kiss. All I heard was the one word I didn’t want to. I saw that my boy was feeling uncomfortable. I could also sense that his discomfort was not about the kiss itself but for me having to hear of it.” Well, we all have had insecurities at one point or the other in our lives, but we're glad the couple's relationship has grown from strength to strength despite such issues.

Recalling one such moment, she revealed, “I was a dainty girl now and was ready to be swept off my feet. This was way out of character for me, something my boy hadn’t signed up for. He asked if something was wrong with me. But I didn’t want to hear another word and insisted that he pick me up and take me to the bed. The mood had changed between us from playfulness to disbelief to irritation. Eventually, with much reluctance, he did fulfill my request.” Things eventually got tense between the two when Dum Laga Ke Haisha happened. On this, she wrote, “So when Dum Laga Ke Haisha happened, I was annoyed. Here he was, willingly carrying a girl who weighed twenty kilos more than him. I would say passive-aggressive things like, ‘Where there is a will there is a way. You never wanted to pick me up, I guess. How could you pick her up so easily?’ He would get frustrated and reply that he had been practicing for months. He had to carry his gym trainer on his back to prepare for the film.” She also wrote, “I wanted to yell back that if he had practiced with me all these years, he wouldn’t have needed his trainer. Instead, I sulked.” He did eventually pick her up but not the way she was imagining. He tossed her on the back like a gunny bag because that's how he had trained. View this post on Instagram 4. In one of the recent interviews, she also said that Ayushmann’s on screen intimate scenes really affected her. She said, “Vicky Donor se shuru ho gaya tha. I was at home, I was pregnant and looking like a whale. I had gained 20 kilos and every woman goes through the journey. But I kept thinking that I'm looking like this, and my husband is romancing on screen. My reactions were immature but I don't regret that at all. Yes, I did have these insecurities.” 5. Their issues eventually got ironed out when Tahira got into filmmaking. Her insecurities came to a halt and something happened that even surprised Ayushmann. In her book, she wrote, “A few years later, I was sitting with my boy in Sriram Raghavan’s office and we were watching the edit of Andhadhun. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. As I stepped out, the team asked me for my feedback. One of the points I made really surprised my boy. I said, ‘Their (Radhika Apte and my boy’s) makeout scene ends abruptly. I think we are jumping to the next scene too quickly. I want to be with the characters a little longer.’” Be it the insecurities or the jealousy, everything that Tahira revealed does sound very relatable to us. What about you? View the full article

View this post on Instagram An opportunity to give competition to the Kardashians just went wasted! A week back I mentioned about âmy badge of honourâ that I was going to receive. And I did and am happy to share about it with the intention of it being received with love. As thatâs the only reason I am posting it. Love for self and gratitude for the universe. The picture might be disturbing for some, but these drains have become my dumbells for a few days. I was detected with DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) in my right breast with high grade malignant cells. Simply put stage 0 cancer/ pre-cancerous stage, with cancer cells multiplying in a contained area. The result I have become a half Indian version of Angelina Jolie (since only one breast was involved)! I told my doctor now is the time to give some competition to the Kardashians since Pamela is passé. But no one listened to me, so now I have a portion of my back tissue in my breast. Perhaps now I can do chin-ups with my breasts! Jokes apart, this obstacle has given me a new definition of life. Respect itâs unpredictability and have the faith and courage to be the hero of your own drama of life. The invincible human spirit is God like, gives you the courage to endure and the will to revive. There is nothing that human spirit canât do. Also I want women of all ages to be aware. I am 35, and I was returned twice over from a mammogram. If any symptoms come up, think of it as a protective force and get yourselves examined. Also we are so obsessed with boobs. This mastectomy has left me with even more self love! Big, small, left or right inclined , gravity pulling or defying, or even none, each breast the presence or lack of it has a story to tell. Mine has made me a 2.0 version of myself! This post is dedicated to awareness, self love and resilience of a warrior that I know each one of us possessesï¸ #breastcancerawareness #selflove #determination #faith #bodhisattva #bodhisattvaoftheearth A post shared by tahirakashyapkhurrana (@tahirakashyap) on Sep 22, 2018 at 1:59am PDT He said, "It was very difficult. Very difficult and thanks to her that she was brave enough to take that positively, otherwise we would have broken, completely. I was in the middle of two films, I was promoting these two films - Andhadhun and Badhaai Ho. And we got to know about it on my birthday. In fact, we saw Manmarziyaan on September 14 and we got to know about this disease that day." He added, "She said that 'I just want to celebrate my life and take it head on and we are together in this - both fighting the disease while promoting the films.' It was a collective effort. I am glad that she has overcome and as we speak, she is delivering a lecture on how to fight cancer. She is an inspiration." We canât agree more on her being an inspiration. Ayushmann, on the work front, has had an amazing 2019 and is all set to welcome a more promising 2020. The actor will be seen in Gulabo Sitabo with Amitabh Bachchan and Shubh Mangal Zyada Savdhaan with Jitendra Kumar. View the full article

It is World Cancer Day today and while the disease is a very hard battle to fight, the people who win over it are prime examples of the fact that mental strength is what one needs to fight the battle.Bollywood celebs are often looked up to as social media influencers and fashion inspiration, but there are a few celebs out there who are respected for how gracefully and fiercely they've fought the war with cancer. Tahira Kashyap and Sonali Bendre are two such women of steel, who have been fighting this war in their own way and today, their powerful messages are a major inspiration on how one can endure anything with courage. View this post on Instagram Today is my day! Wish you all a happy #worldcancerday and hope each one of us celebrates this day in an embracing way. That we remove any stigma or taboo associated with it. That we spread awareness about it and that we have self love no matter what. I truly embrace all my scars as they are my badges of honour. There is nothing known as perfect. Happiness lies in truly accepting yourself. This was a tough one for me. But this picture was my decision as I want to celebrate not the disease but the spirit with which I endured. To quote my mentor, Diasaku Ikeda, “Leading an undefeated life is eternal victory. Not being defeated, never giving up, is actually a greater victory than winning, not being defeated means having the courage to rise to the challenge. However many times we're knocked down, the important thing is we keep getting up and taking one step-even a half step- forward” #worldcancerday #breastcancerawareness #breastcancerwarrior #turningkarmaintomission #boddhisatva Thanks @atulkasbekar for this oneâ¤ï¸ A post shared by tahirakashyapkhurrana (@tahirakashyap) on Feb 3, 2019 at 11:32pm PST When Tahira had first notified the world about her battle with cancer, little did anyone know that this fighter would manage to win every heart on the internet with her humility and her approach on the sensitive matter.

View this post on Instagram World Cancer Day… who would have thought it would become such a thing… but it has! And just the mere mention of the C word brings dread in the hearts of anyone who hears it. We fear it so much that we'd rather not talk about it… which is why it's important to have a day where we pull out the band aid and help us deal with this disease. I was scared too, but soon realised that burying my head in the sand was not the way to deal with this. And so… with the little experience I have had, I urge you all to take the time to understand it. There's more to cancer than being emotional or weak or even being called a fighter or a survivor. It requires you to study it, find out what works for you and to be diligent about your treatment. It requires days of strongly believing in oneself, of knowing that tomorrow will be better than today. It is not a fight against negative thoughts. It's taking a stand to not give in, no matter what. Most importantly, it is about living every day, and not just surviving. Just taking it #OneDayAtATime makes it easier to #SwitchOnTheSunshine. #WorldCancerDay A post shared by Sonali Bendre (@iamsonalibendre) on Feb 3, 2019 at 11:48pm PST Her Instagram feed is full of beautiful pictures of the actress in her natural 'avatar' where she continues to inspire everyone with her outlook on battling cancer. View this post on Instagram “I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me, my journey was doomed. Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the one women are told. I decided I was safe. I was strong. I was brave. Nothing could vanquish me.” – Cheryl Strayed, Wild. Over the past couple of months, I have had good days and bad ones. There have been days when I've been so exhausted and in so much pain that even lifting a finger hurt. I feel like sometimes it's a cycle… one that starts off with physical pain and leads to mental and emotional pain. The bad days have been many… Post chemo, post-surgery and the like… where even just laughing hurts. Sometimes it felt like it took everything I've had to push past it… a minute to minute battle with myself. I got through it knowing that even though I was fighting a long drawn out, draining battle… it was one that was worth the fight. It's important to remember that we're allowed to have those bad days. Forcing yourself to be happy and cheerful all the time serves no purpose. Who are we being fake and putting on an act for? I allowed myself to cry, to feel the pain, to indulge in self-pity… for a short while. Only you know what you're going through and it is fine to accept it. Emotions aren't wrong. Feeling negative emotions isn't wrong. But after a point, identify it, recognize it and refuse to let it control your life. It takes an immense amount of self-care to get out of that zone. Sleep always helps, or having my favourite smoothie after chemo, or just talking to my son. For now, as my treatment continues… my visual focus remains to just get better and get back home. It's yet another test… Student all my life… Learning all my life… #OneDayAtATime ð·: @srishtibehlarya A post shared by Sonali Bendre (@iamsonalibendre) on Oct 8, 2018 at 11:19pm PDT Besides these strong women, other celebs who have been battling the disease include Irrfan Khan, actress Nafisa Ali and even cricketer Yuvraj Singh. Let's be kind and gentle while also being strong for anyone trying to win this war. Such motivational posts prove that no war is impossible to fight, as long as you have courage.
