After cancer battle, Manisha Koirala returns to normal life

Actress Manisha Koirala, who has successfully recovered from cancer, is slowly trying to get back to normal life.

The 42-year-old actress was diagnosed with ovarian cancer last year and was undergoing treatment in New York but last month she announced that she is cancer free.

The Bombay star said that she visited a street fair in Third Avenue in NYC and loved the whole experience.

"I do love shopping on street fairs, have a lemonade, fresh corn, bargain a bit for antique jewellery. Felt great to walk on street," Koirala posted on twitter from New York.

Koirala also found time to watch Baz Luhrmann's recently released film The Great Gatsby, which also stars Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan in a special role.

"Loved The Great Gatsby. Amit Ji is fabulous, camera loves him so does the viewers and of course Leonardo DiCaprio. The film matched with the book," she tweeted.

Born in Nepal, Koirala made her Bollywood debut with Saudagar in 1991 and went on to star in successful films like 1942: A Love Story, Agni Sakshi, Bombay, Khamoshi: The Musical and Company.

Her last release was Ram Gopal Varma's Bhoot Returns.
