Surgery earlier this month

On April 9, Divyanka had shared a reel from the hospital, which showed her going in for a ligament surgery. "Sharing my journey from getting a surgery done until bouncing back in a nutshell. The moment I decided to get 2 of my very old complete ligaments tear corrected, I started strengthening my body for the upcoming trauma and lull by working out in a focused manner. I planned my physio carefully so that I can bounce back timely. @vivekdahiya was a sweetheart, not letting my smile fade even for a moment. My take away, if you don't take something to be a low point, it won't be! You may fall but plan well to bounce back," she wrote.

Divyanka rose to fame after playing Vidya Pratap Singh in Banoo Main Teri Dulhann (2006). She also played Dr Ishita Iyer Bhalla in widely popular show Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. In 2017, she participated in the dance reality show Nach Baliye 8 and emerged as the winner. Last year, she participated in Khatron Ke Khiladi 11 and was the runner-up.
