Wife Bindu Kona tells the story behind the scenes:
Ibarar Tipu’s wife Bindu Kona finally came live to reassure fans and well-wishers about the matter. He said that Ibrar Tipu was diagnosed with kidney cancer about two years ago. The matter was kept secret from the family. During this long period, he had to go through a very difficult treatment.
Bindu Kona said,
”Ibrar Tipu underwent a major and complex surgery to remove the cancer-affected part of his body. After the surgery, he is currently undergoing rehabilitation on the advice of doctors. He still has some difficulty speaking due to the stress of the surgery, but the hope is that he is now much better than before and is moving towards recovery.”
Current location and mental strength:
It is known that Ibrar Tipu is currently staying in the United States with his family for treatment. Earlier in an interview, the artist had said that in addition to regular chemotherapy or therapy as advised by doctors, he is immersed in music practice all the time to keep himself mentally strong.
Bindu Kona also said that due to physical weakness, Tipu is not able to answer everyone’s phone calls or talk. He will contact everyone himself when he recovers a little. He has asked the countrymen and fans to pray for Ibrar Tipu’s speedy and complete recovery.
