Actor Ayushmann Khurrana joined the 'fasting husbands' club yet again this year and kept the Karwa Chauth fast for his wife Tahira Kashyap, a cancer survivor, who said on social media that she couldn't keep the fast as she is still recuperating and had some medicines to take. In addition, Ayushmann and Tahira celebrated long distance Karwa Chauth as Tahira was out for an event in Dubai while the actor was back in Mumbai keeping up with his work commitments. In the evening, Ayushmann and Tahira connected on a video call and Ayushamann completed his fast by drinking water as Tahira adoringly watched him.
Sharing her Karwa Chauth moment with Ayushmann on Instagram, Tahira wrote, "Embarrassing you further, Ayushmann. Our Karwa Chauth moment! While I am in Dubai for an event, my certainly better half keeps a fast for me on his set! (PS - I am still popping some pills so couldn't fast). But how adorable are you Mr A! Love you so much. #fastinghusbands."
Ayushmann and Tahira's Karwa Chauth moment got whole lotta love from her Instafam, including celebrities like Dia Mirza, Sonali Bendre, Ekta Kapoor, Swara Bhasker and Gajraj Rao, all of whom posted heart emoticons. Ayushmann also posted "Ummm" in the comments thread along with a heart-eyed emoticon.
Here's Tahira Kashyap's Karwa Chauth post:
Tahira Kashyap, a filmmaker, was diagnosed with cancer in September 2018 and during her treatment, Ayushmann stood by her side like a rock. Ayushmann also kept the Karwa Chauth fast for Tahira last year when she was battling cancer. He wrote, "She can't fast this time but I will. For her good health and long life."
