In one of her videos, she explained that her immunity had weakened due to ongoing cancer treatments, making the infection harder to recover from.“Ruhaan se infection mujhe lag gaya. Aur mere case mein infection thoda zyada severe ho gaya kyunki main treatment pe hoon, aur uss time pe aapki body ki immunity thodi low hoti hai,” Dipika shared. “Doctor ne pehle hi kaha tha ki agar viral ho ya fever aaye, toh turant call karna. Antibiotics aur anti-allergics start kiye, jo thoda heavy pad raha hai. (“I caught the infection from Ruhaan. In my case, the infection became a bit more severe because I’m undergoing treatment, and during that time your body’s immunity is quite low,” Dipika shared. “The doctor had already told us that if I get any kind of viral or fever, we should call immediately. As soon as we did, they started antibiotics and anti-allergic medicines, which are quite strong and heavy on the body.)”Shoaib and Dipika's relationshipShoaib Ibrahim and Dipika Kakar’s relationship is one of television’s most cherished love stories.
