India, March 29 -- A ctor Varun Dhawan and his wife Natasha Dalal welcomed their daughter, Lara, in 2024. The actor recently revealed that she was diagnosed with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), a condition that affected her ability to walk and run properly. He added that she underwent a procedure and is now recovering. Varun shared that Lara was diagnosed at around 18 months. Speaking on Be A Man, Yaar! podcast, he said, "My daughter was diagnosed with DDH, in which the hip slips out of the socket. Ek pair lamba chota ho jaata hai, jiski wajah se walk tedi ho jaati hai. You can't walk or run properly." He added, "You get arthritis early, slip disc early. West mein iska treatment birth par hi ho jaata hai, India mein har jagah nahi hai itna. But yahan bhi bahut acche doctors hain jo iska care karte hain. She didn't need surgery. With one procedure, they could put the hip back. But she had to be in a spica cast for two-and-a-half months, which was extremely difficult. To put her under anaesthesia and then she woke up in a cast. now the cast is out. I want to write a book on it." Varun also urged parents to closely observe their children's movements and consult a paediatrician if anything seems unusual in the early years. He emphasised that he was sharing his experience to spread awareness, not to invite sympathy, adding that the condition is treatable if detected early. Developmental dysplasia of the hip is a condition in which a baby's hip joint does not form properly. It may be present at birth or develop as the child grows, and can affect one or both hips.HTC more on p 05...
