Hina Khan has revealed that her cancer diagnosis played a central role in her decision to marry longtime partner Rocky Jaiswal. The actor said the wedding was spontaneous and took less than 15 minutes.
Recalling the occasion during a conversation, Khan smiled while looking at a photograph from her wedding day. She explained that the couple had not planned to marry at that point, despite being together for more than a decade.
A decision shaped by uncertainty
Khan said she and Jaiswal had been in a relationship for around 13 to 14 years. Her health situation, however, made her reassess what she wanted from the relationship and the future.
“This was just a random decision. We didn’t plan this,” she said, explaining that she told Jaiswal he could either move forward and marry someone else or marry her because she did not know what the next day might bring.
An unplanned ceremony
The disclosure presents the wedding as a deeply personal response to uncertainty rather than a long-prepared public event. Khan’s comments also highlight the length of her relationship with Jaiswal, which had continued for more than 10 years before the marriage.
Her account provides personal context for the couple’s quick wedding and shows how her cancer diagnosis influenced a major decision in their lives.
