Manisha Koirala is a well-known name in the Indian film industry who is known for her many award winning performances. She is a UNFPA goodwill ambassador and a social activist. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer two years ago, and while she was declared cancer-free last year, there is a fear of recurrence since she is BRCA +. Since then, Manisha has focused on holistically healing herself and also spreading the message of pranayama (breathing) in killing cancer cells and staying healthy. She is a big supporter of holistic healing and actively works with forums and communities propagated by Ask Rachna Chhachhi to spread the message of nutrition and lifestyle changes in the process of healing and being disease free, especially for cancer victims.
