Mumbai/IBNS: Offering strength and love to Hina Khan, celebrities like Shilpa Shetty, Bhumi Pednekar, Mouni Roy and others lauded popular television actress Hina Khan after she cut her hair ahead of chemotherapy.

The actress wrote, "To all the beautiful people out there, especially women who are fighting the same battle, I know it’s hard, I know for most of us, our hair is the crown we never take off. But what if you’re facing a battle so tough that you have to lose your hair—your pride, your crown? If you want to win you’ve got to take some tough decisions."

"And I choose to win. I have decided to give myself every chance possible to win this battle. I choose to let go of my beautiful hair before it starts falling off. I didn’t want to endure this mental breakdown for weeks. So, I choose to let go of my crown because I’ve realized my real crown is my courage, my strength , and the love I have for myself."

Love and support pour in

Shilpa Shetty writes, "Sending you prayers and positivity.. You WILL overcome this . Stay strong."

Bhumi Pednekar says, "Sending you all the positivity."
