Bollywood prays for Yuvraj Singh

As the news of cricket icon Yuvraj Singh being diagnosed with cancer spread, several Bollywood personalities cheered him and wished his recovery on twitter. Yuvraj had been diagnosed with cancer and is currently undergoing chemotherapy in the United States. The 30-year-old cricket superstar, known for his friendships with Bollywood stars, has been in the US since last month being treated for what was earlier claimed to be a non-malignant tumour in the lungs. But it was diagnosed as cancer and the star is undergoing chemotherapy.

"Shocked to learn of Yuvraj Singh down with cancer...Yuvraj if you read this, know that we all pray for you...All shall and will be well. Yuvraj, get up in the morning and say it out loud - "Everyday in every way I am getting better and better!!" You will," Amitabh Bachchan wrote on twitter.

"Yuvraj has done so much for Indian cricket. This world cup might not have happened without him. Let's pray for his recovery. Get well Yuvi," filmmaker Kunal Kohli said.

"Very upset to hear about Yuvraj! Let's pray for his recovery. I know he's a fighter and he'll win this match," actress Dia Mirza said.

To a reply on Yuvraj Singh's tweet, actor Abhishek Bachchan tweeted, "@yuvsingh09 thank you so much my brother. Get well soon. Big hug."

"I think it's unfair to speculate about Yuvraj's health till he speaks about it. Until then, hoping and praying he is up and active soon," actor Siddharth said.

"Sad to read about Yuvraj Singh. No one deserves to go through this. Wishing him a speedy recovery," CEO, Balaji Motion Pictures, Tanuj Garg said.

"Prayers for Yuvi," VJ, Nikhil Chinapa tweeted
