Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh, who is a cancer survivor, has given his words of support to Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, who is reportedly diagnosed with stage 3 of lung cancer. The cricketer has boosted the confidence of the actor, saying that he'll beat the deadly disease.

Yuvraj Singh took to his Twitter handle and wrote “You are, have and always will be a fighter @duttsanjay. I know the pain it causes but I also know you are strong and will see this tough phase through. My prayers and best wishes for your speedy recovery.”

Yuvraj had a cancerous tumor in his left lung, and this was confirmed to be Seminoma Lung Cancer in 2011. Yuvraj underwent chemotherapy in Boston and Indianapolis in the USA, and was discharged in March 2012 after undergoing three full cycles of chemotherapy.

You are, have and always will be a fighter @duttsanjay. I know the pain it causes but I also know you are strong and will see this tough phase through. My prayers and best wishes for your speedy recovery.
