Lisa can fight cancer - Dilip Mehta

Among others, the film stars Lisa Ray as a diplomat’s wife. Lisa has been a favourite of Dilip’s sister Deepa Mehta. And now she’s endeared herself to Dilip Mehta as well.

Dilip is shocked but very, very hopeful of Lisa’s recovery. “It came as a jolt to all her friends and fans. Lisa has a huge fan following in Canada.

There’s a pall of gloom here. But I know she’ll fight it out. It’s a rare cancer. But it’s combatable.

And Lisa will do it. She has spirit. The cure is Lisa’s birthright. No one can deprive her of it.” What Dilip admires the most is the manner in which Lisa confronted her illness.

“Lisa looked the illness in the face and has taken it on. She has shared her crisis with the world and is now ready to battle it out.
