About Dipika’s surgery?
Shoaib said that during the surgery, Deepika’s gall bladder as well as a small part of her liver had also been removed. She said, “The tumour has been removed properly. The gall bladder also had to be removed as it had stones in it. Since the tumour was in the liver, a part of it, a small portion, had to be cut out. There is nothing to worry about as the liver is an organ that regenerates itself.”
