Chhavi Mittal was diagnosed with breast cancer and recently, underwent surgery for the same. The actress and her husband also shared a series of pictures before and after going under the knife, sharing strength all over social media. Now, she has posted yet another powerful image, sending out some positive vibes to all the cancer survivors out there.

Chhavi is seen wearing a yellow coloured gown, as she flaunts her scar post the surgery with her back facing the lens. She also shared a small note in the caption which reads, "Scars. You can see the ones on the body.. but you'll never see the ones etched on the bearer's soul. Yesterday when I found the courage to flaunt this scar" there were some who flinched at the sight of it. I say, if the mere sight of it makes you flinch, imagine what I felt when it was given to me!"

She further mentioned in her note, "But in my opinion, a man is not a complete man if he has the nerve to look down and admire a woman's assets but is not brave enough to appreciate the effort she went through to save those assets. Some have also asked me if I'll remove these scars with a laser or some such and I say never!"

She concluded her post, "They remind me of the fight I fought and the victory I achieved. Why would I ever want to hide these battle scars! That would be tampering with evidence! Proud to be a #cancersurvivor. [sic]"
