Manisha Koirala: Winning Battle Against Cancer Has Made Me A Better Performer
GLOBAL MOVIE MAGAZINE|February 2019

From writing about her battle against cancer to inspiring many lives with her motivational talks -- and even acting in films like "Sanju" and "Lust Stories" -- Nepal-born Bollywood actress Manisha Koirala has of late been keeping herself occupied.

Manisha Koirala: Winning Battle Against Cancer Has Made Me A Better Performer

She says perhaps her fight against cancer has made her a better performer.

Asked if her approach towards acting has changed, the "Bombay" famed actress told IANS: "I am more mindful of everything now. Yes, I have experienced life and that way I can say that winning the battle (against cancer) has perhaps made me a better performer. I know that these days, when I hear a story and read the character that I would perform, I go a bit deeper into it, I try to connect with the mind of my character, and there is certain nuance I look for."

Manisha released her first book titled "Healed: How Cancer Gave Me a New Life" -- published by Penguin Random House -- here on Tuesday evening. The launch was graced by Bollywood celebrities like Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Mahesh Bhatt, Anupam Kher, Gulshan Grover, Imtiaz Ali, Rekha, Deepti Naval and Ketan Mehta, among many others.
