Actress Chhavi Mittal, who courageously overcame breast cancer, is a role model for many. Sharing her story, she continues to inspire others online. On the other hand, the actress from Tumhari Disha has to deal with criticism. Some internet trolls often make harsh remarks about her photos.
Chhavi recently addressed the rude responses to her beach holiday photos featuring her in a swimsuit.
Chhavi posted a statement in which she responded to the trolls who attacked her in the comments area by attaching screenshots of their remarks.
When a netizen asked if cancer surgery involves ‘cutting breasts’, another wrote, “Maybe she just took out silicons.” Reacting to this, she wrote, “Yes. This insensitivity still happens. I recently posted some vacation pics/reels from a beach and this comment got my attention. My breasts are being discussed here like a commodity. May I begin by saying that I am a breast cancer survivor and have fought very hard to keep this organ alive and well?”
The actress turned a negative experience into an opportunity to educate the public about breast cancer and treatment options including lumpectomy and mastectomy. She also urged females to be aware of their bodies and to seek medical attention at the first sign of trouble.
She ended the statement by thanking everyone who has supported her and mentioning cancer survivors. Chhavi said in April that she was cancer-free after a six-hour operation. She subsequently shared many images of herself on social media, bearing her scars while wearing a white bikini. While the actress does talk about it to educate others, she often receives hateful comments on social media that she sometimes takes very personally.
Professionally, Chhavi and her husband Mohit Hussein established the digital production company Shitty Ideas Trending (SIT) in 2015. Chhavi is no stranger to the small screen, however; she has made guest appearances on shows like 3 Bahuraaniya and Ghar Ki Lakshmi Betiyann as well as Bandini, Naagin, Viraasat, and Krishnadasi.
