Shamita captioned the post, “My Dearest Jiju @onlyrajkundra, the way you have overcome your personal challenges it has only made you stronger and more resilient. It’s a common saying that ‘what doesn’t break you makes you stronger,’ in the face of great adversity you have come out the other side with an unwavering heart and increased tenacity. Your personal growth as a human has shown us the true meaning of hope and fortitude.”
