Earlier in the week, when Ishaan and Papa went to collect the biopsy reports, waiting for the result was nerve-wracking. I couldn't sit still for a minute and all I could think of was about the reports. Horrible thoughts and pictures kept bombarding in my brain. I didn't find peace at all, no matter how much I tried to distract myself. Later, when I learnt that the doctor would give the reports in the evening, I had had enough of being on pins and needles. I decided to go fetch the reports myself.
I am glad I did, as Ishaan couldn't reach the hospital in time due to traffic, while Papa and Ilesh, who were at the hospital, got stuck in the men's room. Meeting the doctor and hearing from him about my condition - benign tumor - and not cancer was a major relief.
I want to thank all the fans and well-wishers for their affection, encouragement and prayers for my health and recovery. I have read myriad number of mails and letters from all of you and they have always made me feel better. I have to admit, it has been overwhelming for me to feel the love and support of the loyal audiences. In my moment of darkness, the good wishes of the viewers kept me going. I got strength from all you people out there, who wanted me to get better and healthier. I thank all my fans, readers for their prayers and I am supremely relieved to learn that I don't have cancer. You all cheered me to keep going and never lose faith in God and that he would not be so cruel to do any injustice to me. Today, thanks to God and all you wonderful people I am fine. Now though I am a bit worried about the operation for my tumour, all my fears have been laid to rest. The lesson I have learnt from this whole episode in life is to have faith and keep trying to do your best in life. The rest will fall into place.
The day we learnt the results of the report, the family was overjoyed. I had a wonderful time with them playing dumb charades and re-capturing the fun and laughter our family is known for. Later Inder bhaiya, Ishaan and Ilesh taunted us and said blood was thicker than water and the three brothers were bonded for life. They added, unlike Disha didi, Rajni didi and me who were sister-in-law so our bond wasn't up to par with theirs. OMG, how could they belittle our bond and call their bond superior. We decided to teach them a lesson and over a bowl of rasmalai and a razor the strength of their bond was tested. Well I have to say it didn't last long. The trio was fighting within no time. Disha didi, Rajni didi and I had a good laugh at their expense. But all in all, we had a great time as a family and after a long time we were all able to share a laugh without having any nagging thoughts at the back of our minds.

Aminath Rooshan - Hey Ragini, I love love love you! I am in grade 6 and I'm mad for your show! To be really honest, many people nickname me Suhana! You are very pretty and I love you. I am a maldivian but started knowing hindi, all thanks to SGP! I hope you visit Maldives as many love you! You and Ishaan rock as a couple! And once again, I love you and take care! PS: If you come, do visit my school!
Suhana ? OMG people call you Suhana too. That is so cool. Don't you think? Well I am very glad to know you watch Sasural Genda Phool in Maldives. Thanks for your love and support. Do keep writing and watching the show.
Aparna Gaikwad -Hi Suhana/Ragini, I am a huge fan of you and Ishaan, and absolutely love watching your scenes together.They are definitely the best !!! My second favorite is Supriyaji and also the entire Kashyap family. Also glad to know that the brain tumor track will end soon...Honestly,it was a bit of drag...I was reading your previous replies as to how life has both ups and downs and SGP also is trying to show the same thing,but seriously Ragini we do not want to see our own life in a TV serial. We watch SGP because we want a break from our own lives. Do you think such a huge joint family is really so close in real life?? :) No definitely not...We watch SGP to enjoy...enjoy the Kashyap family because it is not real,but they take us to a fantasy world which we all wish for.We watch Suhana because she is not real either, she is a pure soul,but only being a pure soul is not enough to lead a life...There are no Rajni Didis in real life who wouldn't mind making coffees for Suhana all the time just because Suhana is from a rich family...SGP is extremely special & close to my heart because it is a light hearted serial,yet the message is strong that only through patience and love that you can win any one over,I want many cute moments between u and Ishaan All the best to you,Jai and all the SGP cast.You have all done a fantastic job..Hope to see the old SGP charm back again with some cute Ishaan Suhana scenes.Love you,Aparuina

Suhana ? I am so humble to be thought of in the same vein as Smitaji. She was a legendary actress and I am nothing compared to her. Though thanks for the suggestion and I will try a black shimmer sari and wear it in the show. And I hope this reply finds you in the pinkest of health.
Manavi Datta - hey suhana! well we all know that sgp is the most unique show on indian television. a show that always use to bring a smile on people's faces. a slice of life a mixture of emotions n just so many more beautiful things. When i heard about the brain tumor track i was super sad i was so sure sgp will loose its charm. But to quite an extent it did not the track did convey the message that life is not always a smooth journey but i think even u know that it was not sgp's best. now i read an article bout ishaan's partial memory loss problem n it makes wonder "whats going on?" if sgp is gonna have one problem after the other...n if we dont get to see those jokes, that happiness, the fights then where is the uniqueness gone? pls suhana i too like many other fans of ur's do not really want this track to come up pls try n stop it. Well i can just promise u that I wont stop watching sgp even if the track comes in the show has been gr8 through out just because of 1 track i wont stop loving it its a pakka promise. love manavi
