Anupam and Kirron Kher attend film premiere, netizens celebrate her spirit and elegant comeback

Veteran actors Anupam Kher and Kirron Kher stepped out together for a rare public appearance at the premiere of Tanvi The Great. While many were glad to see the couple together, the sight of Kirron—who has been undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma since 2020, sparked a wave of concern among fans online.

Kirron, dressed in a traditional red embroidered outfit paired with silver accessories, smiled warmly for the cameras. Yet, her fragile appearance did not go unnoticed. Anupam stood beside her in a charcoal black tuxedo, his arm around her shoulder, offering quiet support throughout the event.

The photos from the evening quickly gained attention on social media. While many praised her courage for stepping out, others questioned her health condition. “What happened to her?” one user asked, to which another replied, “She’s recovering. Let’s not speculate, just wish her strength.”

The comments were filled with well-wishes and prayers. A user wrote, “She doesn’t look completely well. May God bless her and give her the strength to heal.” Another added, “It must have taken a lot of courage to show up. Let’s not focus on how she looks but applaud her spirit.”

Kirron Kher, who has largely kept a low public profile since her diagnosis, has spoken occasionally about her health and her decision to stay focused on recovery. Anupam, meanwhile, has continued to share regular updates and words of encouragement through his social media.

Their long-standing bond has often been admired. Married since 1985, their relationship began after years of friendship. At the time, Kirron was navigating a difficult marriage, and Anupam had just gone through a breakup. They eventually chose each other, and Anupam took on the role of father to her son, actor Sikander Kher.

In a recent interview, Anupam reflected on the absence of a biological child in their life. “Kirron could not conceive,” he said. “I’m okay with Sikander, but now at 60-plus, I feel it more.” For now, fans continue to hope for Kirron’s full recovery and have appreciated her recent outing as a sign of strength and resilience.
