Hrithik Roshan took to social media to reveal that his father, filmmaker Rakesh Roshan, was diagnosed with early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the throat a few weeks ago. This particular type of cancer is characterised by an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the lining of the throat.
Hrithik shared a picture with his father before their workout and captioned it, "Asked my dad for a picture this morning. Knew he wouldn't miss gym on surgery day. He is probably the strongest man I know. Got diagnosed with early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the throat a few weeks ago, but he is in full spirits today as he proceeds to battle it."
"As a family we are fortunate and blessed to have a leader like him. Love you Dad," the actor added. The comments section has been flooded with get-well-soon wishes from fans and well-wishers.Indiatoday
