Television actress Hina Khan is currently battling stage 3 breast cancer. Time and again, she has proven why she is called 'Sher Khan,' as she continues to put on a brave face and remains determined to overcome it. Recently, Hina opened up about her longtime boyfriend, Rocky Jaiswal, and became emotional while expressing gratitude for the support he has given her throughout this challenging journey.
Speaking to Curly Tales, Hina called Rocky a 'rockstar' and said, "In this journey, if you have a mature and understanding partner by your side, there’s nothing like it. The journey becomes more sweeter. When I take his name, I don't have words to explain what that man has done for me, how he has been with me, and how he has held my hand throughout. He will always do that—that’s just the kind of man he is. I get overwhelmed; I choke up when I talk about him. Every woman deserves a man like him."
The actress revealed that she has known Rocky for over 12 years, having met him on the set of her first show. They were friends for six to seven months before realising they were in love, though they never proposed to each other—it all happened organically. Hina shared that one day, during a hug, they just knew—it wasn’t an ordinary hug; it felt different, as if bells were ringing.
Hina added, "We bond over food and travel, and there is so much love between us. This really hit him hard. I always tell him, 'I can’t love you the way you love me.' But he never takes pride in it; he doesn’t even realise it. He just says, 'Meine kya extra kiya hai, yehi karoge naa?'"
A few days ago, Hina shared a long post for Rocky and shared how he had also shaved his head in solidarity with her amid cancer battle.
