I was diagnosed with bronchial asthma: Kajal Agarwal
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,February 08 2021]
Kajal Aggarwal on Monday revealed that she has had bronchial Asthma since she was all of five. As a child, she had to adhere to major dietary restrictions. Saying that it was not easy to steer clear of dairy and chocolate, the 'Acharya' actress revealed that, during winters, her symptoms have always flared up. Since inhalers are the best possible way to deal with it, she started using them.
However, there is a lot of stigma against users of inhalers. I get the odd question or a judgemental look every now and then. And while it does not bother me, there are millions of people in our country who need inhalers, but choose not to use them because of this very problem - social stigma, the 'Magadheera' actress adds, saying that there is nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to using an inhaler.
Using the hashtag #SayYesToInhalers, she has urged her friends, followers and family to join her in her mission.
The actress was last year married to Gautham Kitchlu.
