Manaisha Koirala is extremely excited and kicked about the role and also mentioned to Priya Dutt that she would like to know more about Nargis Dutt from her.The fear of Cancer is not just the fear of the disease. It is also the fear of losing one’s hair to the treatment. ‘My Hair for Cancer’ is a joint initiative by RichFeel, India's leading hair care experts and the NargisDutt Foundation to help those who have lost their hair to Cancer treatment. Richfeel is uniquely qualified for this initiative since Dr. Apoorva Shah & Dr. Sonal Shah of RichFeel, the premier Trichologists in India, have a deep understanding of what hair loss can do to the psyche of a person whose resolve is already under pressure, fighting the affliction

Dr. Apoorva Shah, Founder - Richfeel commented,“Most Cancer victims also fear the hair loss due to the treatment. They feel they will lose their looks and therefore, lose confidence. ‘My Hair for Cancer’ has managed to alleviate this fear by providing hair systems to Cancer patients and has encouraged many to join the cause of early cancer detection.
Adding her sentiments, Priya Dutt, Trustee – Nargis Dutt Foundation, said, “While there are several screening centres across India, many individuals delay check-up, until it’s too late.
