Actor Ayushmann Khurrana and his wife Tahira Kashyap might have known each other for many years, yet the two radiate couple goals through their posts on social media. Ace filmmaker Tahira Kashyap shared an inspiring story on Instagram where she revealed how her husband Ayushamann motivated her to resume playing squash, a sport that Tahira had left during her cancer treatment and surgery. She shared a video along with the note where she can be seen playing the sport like a champion.

Tahira battled with breast cancer and came out of it like a warrior after her surgery. In the post, Tahira explained that she played good squash but completely gave up on it after her surgeries. And then one day when she looked at the tennis court, Ayushmann insisted she takes up the sport once again and starts playing. She even mentioned that she has a latissimus dorsi muscle missing that makes her forehand weak, yet she does not want to top. “I played good squash, but completely left sports after my surgery. I looked longingly at a tennis court one day and that’s when @ayushmannk asked me what’s stopping me from playing... but obviously I have a latissimus dorsi muscle missing making my forehand way weaker... is when he said have you seen Monica Seles play, she plays the two-handed forehand! Of course, I know at this age I am not going to become a Steffi or Monica but now I don’t shy away! I play softer shots with a single forehand and when I get tired or want to put in power I try to do the Monica way! Still learning... a long way to go... but at least the journey has started! #neverstopexploring #tennis #onedayatatime #sports,” she captioned the video.
