While speaking about the emotional and financial challenges, the actor shared that he is trying hard to stay hopeful despite the situation becoming increasingly difficult. In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, Sharib said, “I am just trying to keep my mind in a positive frame, otherwise it will become very difficult for me to deal with it. The treatment is underway and thankfully she is responding to it positively. My wife is a big fighter, and seeing her spirit gives us hope too. But it is a long journey as the cancer has spread all over the body.” Sharib Hashmi’s wife Nasreen was first diagnosed with oral cancer in August 2018 and has undergone five surgeries since then.

Speaking to Hauterrfly, Nasreen recalled how the two first fell in love during college. “We were together in college for a year. After that, we broke up,” she shared. Sharib then revealed the reason behind their sudden separation. “After our first anniversary, her brother found out about us. He confronted me. His main concern was my height and the fact that we belonged to different castes. He told me, ‘You are still in college. We will get her married in six months.

He admitted he couldn’t have pulled it off without the consent and support of his wife, Nasreen Hashmi, with whom he’d tied the knot in 2003. They had already become parents when he chose to take the road less travelled. “If she’d said no, I’d have continued to lead my life like that, where there’d be nothing else besides work,” added Sharib, who had also bought a house in Mumbai on loan around the same time. “But I …
