Manisha Koirala, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2012, has been vocal about her fight with it. The actress has drawn from her experiences during the time she underwent treatment for it and penned them down. Her book Healed: How Cancer Gave Me A New Life will be launched tomorrow at a suburban five-star. The Sanju actress has often said that she doesn’t look back at her tryst with the ailment as a bitter experience. In fact, speaking about it in an interview she had said, “I think cancer came into my life as a gift. My vision is sharper, my mind clearer, my perspective realigned.”

When we had spoken to her about her book earlier, Manisha had revealed that it was a personal journey that she embarked on after a lot of soul-searching. She added, “It’s not only about the physical part but it’s also got a lot to do with emotional pain, too. How I healed physically, emotionally, mentally, and where I am today.”

The pretty actress added that she included all aspects of her journey of dealing with the Big C in her latest work. “Human beings are multi-dimensional. If one thing is affecting them, the other thing too gets impacted. So, until and unless we take care of our overall health, we can’t be healthy,” she concluded. Besides getting back to work with films like Sanju and Lust Stories, she is now also a motivational speaker and shares her thoughts on coping with the dreaded disease and healing oneself.
