Emraan Hashmi has been invited by the ACS (America Cancer Society; USA) to deliver a talk on cancer awareness at the institute.

In April this year, Emraan Hashmi (left) published a book on cancer, in which he spoke about the challenges he and his wife, Parveen Shahani, faced, while their son Ayaan (6) was being treated for the disease. The actor has been praised for his sensitive and touching account of their struggle.
