Manisha Koirala leads ‘Hope of Walk’
Earlier in December, Manisha released her biopic, ‘Healed’, where she shared about her understanding of existence in a life or death situation. Even translated in Nepali, the book describes the courage and determination toward life. The book was released in the capital. During the launch event of the book in 2018, she said, “I have acted in all genres of movies in my 30 years career. But after diagnosed with cancer, I realized the importance of life and learned to be hopeful.”
“I used to think that being diagnosed with cancer meant death. It took a long time for me to realize that people won’t die just because they have been diagnosed with it.” Despite everything, Manisha is always hopeful for the advanced affordable cancer treatment in Nepal.
Debuted as an actor in Bollywood from Subhash Ghai’s movie – ‘Saudagar’, Manisha has starred in more than 50 movies. Currently, she’s working on the upcoming Netflix show, ‘Bombay Begums’.
