Last week, taking to his YouTube channel, Shoaib and Dipika spoke at length about her health. They said that the surgery, which was scheduled for that week, has been postponed as Dipika hasn't recovered from flu yet.

Dipika also revealed that doctors assured them that she would be cured after the tumour was surgically removed. He also shared that Dipika was experiencing pain due to a stone in her gall bladder.
