Today is World Cancer Day and everyone right from celebrities to common people is voicing their opinions, sharing personal experiences and anecdotes about the Big C that is claiming lives of loved ones and shattering families left, right and center. Amongst the numerous celebrities who shared messages and posts about cancer was celebrity fashion designer Manali Jagtap who has dressed many actors in her threads.
She shared a heartfelt yet inspiring post on her Instagram today. She shared her picture where she is wearing headgear and captioned it as, “There’s absolutely no way one can skip their destiny! It just becomes a tad bit easier to face almost anything with a little smile. Fighting the big C with all my strength along with my family and friends!

Manali had recently attended a conclave for creating awareness regarding early detection and prevention of the disease which was held in collaboration with FICCI FLO, IAOMP CAN and World Cancer Care. During the event, she said that taking health for granted is the biggest roadblock in cancer detection. She had said, “Since there are no symptoms, one doesn’t know about until quite late. Health should be given priority.” We’re sure her inspiring post will give strength to many others who are fighting the dreaded disease.
