What began as a mild stomach ache soon led to scans and tests that revealed a malignant tumour, now confirmed as stage 2 liver cancer.
What Is Stage-2 Liver Cancer?
Doctors say that while stage 2 cancer is serious, it is still treatable if caught early, and many patients recover with the right medical care. A tumour of that size — roughly that of a tennis ball — suggests aggressive growth, but timely intervention improves outcomes significantly.

Her brave decision to speak publicly about the diagnosis being praise widely. Fans and fellow celebrities alike have flooded social media with messages of love, encouragement, and prayers.
Dipika’s journey is a stark reminder of how important it is to not ignore persistent or unusual symptoms. Especially stomach pain or discomfort — and to seek medical attention without delay.
