Earlier this year, Tannishtha revealed her diagnosis with cancer. Taking to Instagram, the filmmaker shared the update along with a series of pictures. “So the last 8 months have been incredibly difficult- to put it mildly. As if losing my father to Cancer was not enough. 8 months back I got diagnosed of stage 4 oligo metastatic Cancer. But this post is not about Pain. Its about love and strength,” a part of her post read.
Amid the health scare, Tannishtha went on to win the Marie Claire Visionary Director Award for her film ‘Full Plate’ at the Busan International Film Festival.
