On this touching episode of Sunday Brunch, we shared a delicious non-traditional, Pan-Asian Iftar with the brave and beautiful Hina Khan! Our Editor-in-Chief, Kamiya Jani, had a delightful conversation with the actor on International Women’s Day. From her journey recovering from cancer to her opinions about how women can uplift other women, we spoke about a wide range of topics. What is clear from this conversation is that Hina Khan is one hell of a woman!
Hina Khan’s Biggest Support During Her Cancer Treatment
While narrating her journey of recovering from cancer, Hina Khan revealed who her biggest support was. It was Rocky Jaiswal, her partner for almost 12 years now. She revealed that Rocky has quite literally been a rock for her.
Hina said that he held her hand every step of the way, and she felt incredibly to have a man like him in her life. As a matter of fact, she was so overcome with emotion that she teared up. She said that every time she speaks of Rocky, she gets choked up.
Hine also went on to mention how incredibly supportive both Rocky’s family and Hina’s family have been during her journey. She must feel like one of the luckiest people on the planet!

These Are The Dates That She Eats Always
While also speaking of her eating habits, Hina Khan said that she never goes on a diet. She eats what she feels like eating and exercises. One of the things she makes sure to eat when she’s fasting is Ajwa Khajoor.
She said that it is believed that eating seven ajwa dates in a day can help cure a number of diseases and that they are also extremely nutritious. She also mentioned that she was taking a break from fasting in Ramzan.
She had started keeping fasts initially and was even exercising and going to the gym. However, she felt that she wasn’t getting enough sleep. And hence, she took a break.
