Dipika Kakar Starts IV Immunotherapy During Intense Family Care

The shift to 'double' IV infusions marks a move from surgery to sustained medical monitoring and follow-up scans.

Overview

  • Dipika Kakar has begun IV immunotherapy described as a 'double' infusion and reported fatigue, back pain and a mild fever after the first dose.
  • She previously had surgery in February after a 1.3 cm cyst was found and continues regular scans and blood tumor‑marker tests as part of ongoing monitoring.
  • Husband Shoaib Ibrahim is the primary caregiver, documenting hospital visits and treatment updates on YouTube while managing their young son and family duties.
  • Shoaib's father suffered a brain haemorrhage in May and remains in recovery with physiotherapy; Shoaib has been posting progress updates from hospital visits.
  • On Saturday, June 20, Dipika posted an emotional birthday note for Shoaib and he shared a first look of his upcoming music video, showing the couple balancing public updates, work and care responsibilities.
