On April 17, the 41-year-old actor revealed that she was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.

Post-surgery, Mittal shared an Instagram post in which she shared her selfie after undergoing the medical procedure, which she said went on for about six hours.

“When the anaesthesiologist asked me to close my eyes and think of something nice, I visualised my beautiful breasts perfectly healthy and then I went under. The next thing I know, I woke up cancer free,” she wrote.

It is a long road to recovery, the actor said, adding that “the worst is over”.
