This Cancer Survivor’s Stunning Photoshoot In Indian Finery Is All The Inspiration We Needed Today!

Every time we scroll down our Instagram feed, we see flawless pictures of all these gorgeous women. They have perfect skin, their  makeup is perfect and the body of a Greek goddess. We end up thinking we’re the only ones with blemishes or with an uneven winged eyeliner! Why do we have have arm fat when everyone around has no fat? Insecurity takes over and we end up feeling less beautiful than we should. How do you think every single person on Instagram looks so perfect? They are not flawless, they are filtered. You don’t even need to put makeup on, the beauty setting on the camera is enough to make you look like a diva. When someone as gorgeous as Mouni Roy can feel insecure and photoshop her body before uploading a picture on Instagram, where do we stand?

Guess what? We can all learn from this woman who survived cancer, and got married  and her confidence is something we can all learn from. She had lost her hair due to chemo, but that did not push her into a shell. Vashnavi Poovanedran did a conceptual bridal shoot, which can be inspirational to several cancer survivors.

She shared her pictures on Instagram, to inspire several women, fighting cancer. And not just that, it will also motivate those fighting low self-esteem, and trying to be more body-positive. Poovanedran captioned one of her pics: “Nothing can stop me….nope, NOTHING! Not even CANCER!” If she can fight cancer, and major hair loss, can’t we all just get over a little acne and flab?

Vashnavi Poovanedran, explained how so many brides who had suffered from cancer, give up too easily. She revealed how it was a childhood dream for her to look pretty as a bride. She survived cancer twice. First, it was breast cancer, and then five years later, it spread to her liver and backbone. It took a lot of chemo, and even more courage to get through that. And amidst all this, she lost her hair, but not her confidence and dreams.
