"MULAQAT" is a short film on cancer awareness and prevention. It contains struggles derived from the real-life of many women who have been subjected to victimization for being touched with cancer. Through this film, we tried to make people privy the challenges of a breast cancer patient's lives which are not getting the attention it deserves but as they say, there is light after the pitch dark night, in the same way, our lead character Mayra finds support and care at the least expected place.

This film is one of the many efforts that Cheers To Life Foundation has taken to bring people together to fight cancer and to educate the masses on cancer awareness and prevention. We have been striving hard to break this atmosphere of fear and stigma towards cancer and help people with valuable information on defeating cancer. The president of the organization Ms. Dimple Bawa started this move in 2014 to educate others on ways to fight cancer with a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition after being diagnosed with cancer herself with stage 3B Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Cheers To Life Foundation is a government-registered Non-Profit Organisation working actively in the field of cancer awareness and prevention and we invite you to support us in our cause of “Overcoming cancer – Celebrating life!”

In the near future, we are going to make more of such films of art highlighting various important subjects which need the world's attention. We are inviting collaborations from companies and individuals to help us make such art in the future to gain visibility for their brand and make it stand out from the crowd.

Even in today's digital age people are relating cancer to superstition and result of bad karma.

This happens primarily because of a certain notion that has been attached to cancer in our society. The stigma of cancer is not only prevalent in the weaker section of the community but also in the well educated section.

As per my observation on the fear of cancer diagnosis and stigma related to it kills more people than the cancer itself. Cancer diagnosis is nothing to be ashamed of, but stigma shame us all.

I came across numerous such cases and decided to make a short film to highlight the stigma related to breast cancer, with the intent of spreading awareness and knowledge on the subject.

"Mulaqat" is inspired by true events.

Stay tuned for the release!

I often say I was lucky and dealt good with cancer right. However, not everyone is as lucky. To my sisters out there battling more extensive disease—I send you my love and support. Together, we fight and raise awareness. No cancer diagnosis is in vain. We love, live, and learn more with each life affected.

Surviving cancer can leave a host of problems in its wake. Physical, emotional, and financial hardships often persist for years even after the diagnosis and the treatment. Add to that emotional struggles, strains on personal relationships, and the profound fear of cancer recurrence.

The concept of survivorship issues and their management is much below accepted standards.

Hence, there is a need to initiate discussion around this important aspect of cancer care.

Join me for a Live Webinar / Panel Discussion on Survivorship care in Breast Cancer : a round table on managing the late and long term effects of breast cancer treatment on Zoom platform on 24 July 2021 (Saturday), 6 pm to 7 pm and invites you all to join in.

Good nutrition means more than simply eating an apple a day!

Eating healthy is challenging for most of us. A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, complex carbohydrates and protein is ideal. And reduce the portions of your main meals since often, large portions are the main cause behind lack of energy.

•

Eat a mix of different types of food. Make half your plate fruits and vegetables. Then fill your plate with one-quarter protein and one-quarter whole grains. Choose a wide range of foods of different colors. Find an eating plan that fits your schedule and tastes. Avoid too much of any one food.

•

Good nutrition means more than simply eating an apple a day. Think in terms of your food choices throughout the day, from breakfast to bedtime. Your food is extremely important, and it’s a great tool to protect your body against diseases.

Cancer is increasingly becoming prevalent in the younger age group as well, which is an extremely worrisome trend. As per studies cancer spreads far rapidly in a young body as compared to an elderly’s. If the current rate continues, we could be witnessing an epidemic of cancer by 2050.

According to the National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research (NICPR), an estimated 2.25 million people in India live with cancer and more than 1,157,294 new cancer patients are registered every year. In 2018, 7,84,821 people (4,13,519 men and 3,71,302 women) died of cancer. In fact, reports show that death rates due to cancer in the US have been decreasing gradually for the last 3 decades, typically 1.5% per year, while in India the death rate is rapidly increasing.

We are grappling with inadequate infrastructure and poor access to healthcare.

70% of cancer cases are associated with lifestyle and if we take charge of our daily lifestyle and by spreading awareness on cancer prevention the number of cases are likely to come down.
