Dipika Kakar lost 12 kg due to immunotherapy side effects, says husband Shoaib Ibrahim
The Story in Brief
Television actor Dipika Kakar, who is undergoing treatment for liver cancer, has lost 12 kg due to side effects of immunotherapy, her husband Shoaib Ibrahim said in a YouTube vlog. He warned channels and content creators against spreading misinformation about her diet, saying the weight loss was not from a diet plan but from treatment that causes nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
Dipika, who started immunotherapy in June, said the first 5 to 6 kg loss was due to diet, but the rest was because of treatment side effects. Shoaib said they would issue a strike to channels spreading false information, urging people not to blindly follow any diet advice and to consult a doctor.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both outlets reported the same quotes and facts from Shoaib and Dipika's vlog, with no difference in framing. The Indian Express and Hindustan Times both led with the weight loss figure and the warning against misinformation, attributing the loss to immunotherapy side effects as stated by the couple. Neither source included any government angle or editorial judgement. The coverage is uniform straight reporting of the celebrity health update and the public appeal against fake diet claims.
