Our latest episode of Sunday Brunch was special for many reasons. First, we were celebrating Women’s Day, and second, we were celebrating it with the unstoppable Hina Khan. We enjoyed an iftar meal with her at Yazu, a pan-Asian restaurant in Mumbai. Known for her iconic screen presence and incredible roles, Hina’s journey has been all about strength, resilience, and unwavering faith, no matter how tough the challenges life throws at her. During this episode, she met with our Editor-in-Chief, Kamiya Jani, and opened up about her emotional cancer journey, her new and refreshed outlook on life, her memories of iftar in Kashmir, and much more.

Hina Khan Starts And Breaks Her Fasts With Dates
Two years ago, we met Hina Khan for an episode of Tere Gully Mein, where we explored Goregaon with her and enjoyed some delicious pani puri. Reminiscing about those days with a smile, Hina shared how special that experience was. For this episode of Sunday Brunch, we met her for an iftar meal.
Talking about her Ramadan routine, Hina shared that she starts her sehri every morning with a special variety of dates known as Ajwa. This particular type is known for its unique taste and exceptional health benefits. Considered the most superior among all date varieties, Ajwa dates are grown in Saudi Arabia. They are high in fibre, aid digestion, and are great for heart health. Hina Khan added that if a person has seven Ajwa dates in a day, it is believed they will not have to face any health concerns. She not only starts her meal with Ajwa dates but also breaks her fast with them.

She Wants To Take A Trip To Korea
After discussing her journey of dealing with cancer, chemotherapy, and the immense support from her family and loved ones, it was time for some fun conversations. We asked her if there was something new on her bucket list, and Hina instantly replied, Korea!
She said she desperately wants to visit Korea and keeps telling her manager to make it happen as soon as possible. Chemotherapy has taken a toll on her body, affecting her skin, hair, and nails. Since Korea is known for its advanced skincare technology, she wants to visit, experience the best facials, and bring back the best products from the country.
During the episode, Hina Khan also shared her experience of going scuba diving while undergoing chemotherapy. To learn all about her journey, watch the full episode on the Curly Tales YouTube channel!
