I am home but the recovery is extremely painful: Hina Altaf shares health update

Pakistani actor Hina Altaf, known for her performances in television dramas Dil e Gumshuda and Nijaat, has recently faced a health setback, prompting concern from fans and costars. While the nature of her health condition remains undisclosed, the actor took to her Instagram handle to update her extensive fan base on her current well-being.

Earlier, Hina had shared a snapshot of her hand supporting a wristband, suggesting a possible surgical operation. The accompanying caption, "going inside, prayers," was read by concerned fans as indicative of a serious medical situation. After a few hours, the actor shared another update, reassuring her dedicated followers that she is now back home. 

In an Instagram post, she candidly expressed, "I am home but the recovery is extremely painful. Thank you for the lovely messages." 

For the unversed, the celeb has been the subject of rumours lately after celebrating her birthday alone at home, hinting at trouble in paradise with fellow actor Aagha Ali. The celebrity couple tied the knot in 2020 after sharing the screen in 2019 drama series Dil e Gumshuda. Neither party has addressed the divorce speculations that are abuzz, choosing to stay tight-lipped on the matter despite their active presence on social media.

Earlier in December, Hina faced criticism on social media, specifically X, a platform once recognised as Twitter, due to an alleged post that appears to have been removed from her feed. The controversy arose when a user shared a screenshot purportedly taken from Altaf's feed, capturing her holding a Starbucks cup. 

The issue gained attention amidst the ongoing barbarities inflicted on Palestine by Israel, leading to global calls for boycotting certain brands, Starbucks among them. The Express Tribune, however, could not independently verify the authenticity or origin of the screenshot in question. The incident stirred debates and discussions, reflecting the complexities surrounding public figures and their associations with sensitive socio-political matters.
