Karva Chauth is traditionally celebrated as an occasion in which the wife keeps a pretty difficult fast for her husband’s long life and health. While the occasion has been romanticized for centuries, every so often than not, people do give it their own twist with some love-filled gestures.
Bollywood too, isn’t far behind, when it comes to celebrating the occasion with equal fervor and enthusiasm.
But for actor Ayushmann Khurrana, it certainly wasn’t a conventional celebration this year.
The ‘Badhai Ho’ actor’s wife Tahira Kashyap had recently opened up about her cancer diagnosis and how she’s been keeping up with fighting the disease with the constant support of her hubby.
Since the Mrs. couldn’t keep a fast this year, due to her frail health condition – Ayushmann did something adorable that made everyone yell collective ‘awws’ on social media.
The actor recently revealed how it would be him, this year, who would be fasting for his other half’s good health and long life.
Sharing a picture of his palm with Tahira’s initial return on it, Ayushmann said:
“She can’t fast this time. But I will. For her good health and long life.”

Always like your “out of the Box” movies and now this out of the box celebration. Happy fasting! My respect for you has grown up exponentially when I have learnt your wife’s struggle and how you have been a massive support. Hope she battles her cancer very well. God bless!
