Celebrities wish Yuvraj Singh a speedy recovery
The news of cricketer Yuvraj Singh diagnosed with cancer went viral on Sunday afternoon, with celebs vouching their support for him and praying for his speedy recovery.
The 30-year-old was first diagnosed with a non-malignant tumour of the lungs last year, but further tests revealed that it was cancer. He’s now undergoing chemotherapy in the United States of America.
Yuvraj, who has been undergoing chemotherapy since January, broke the secrecy around his illness when he blogged on January 27,“Reading Lance Armstrong’s book, it’s not about the bike! I’m sure it will motivate me and pull me through this time! Livestrong Yuvstrong.” Lance Armstrong is a cyclist who won multiple Tour de France titles after being treated for testicular cancer.
Yuvi, who’s popular with B-Towners, has had messages and support pouring out to him from Bollywood. Actor Amitabh Bachchan tweeted, “Shocked to learn of Yuvraj Singh down with cancer..Yuvraj if you read this, know that we all pray for you.. All shall and will be well.” He later advised, “Yuvraj, get up in the morning and say” it out loud —Everyday in every way I am getting better and better !!” You will !!”
Actor Dia Mirza posted, “Very upset to hear about Yuvraj! Let’s pray for his recovery. I know he’s a fighter and he’ll win this match.” Actor Ameesha Patel, who was once linked with the cricketer,was shocked to learn his illness. “Praying for my friend Yuvraj. He has to get well. Everyone pls pray for him .. He must fight this awful illness.”
It is not just the film industry that has extended their support to him. Liquor baron, Vijay Mallya, who’s close to him, wrote, “I am devastated 2 hear that my friend Yuvraj Singh has cancer. I pray 2 Balaji that he recovers n is back in action.” Politico Omar Addullah posted, “Here’s wishing Yuvraj Singh a speedy & complete recovery. On a good day there are few cricketers more exciting than him.” Gujarat CM Narendra Modi too, said, “Sad to hear about ill-health of Yuvraj Singh. He is a fighter and am sure he’ll come out of it very soon and play again for India.”
