Bollywood actress, Sonali Bendre is an epitome of beauty, strength and lots of courage! Last year, she gave a huge shock to her millions of fans when she had announced her battle with metastatic cancer. However, the actress not only redefined beauty but also life with her positive outlook and in-trend hashtag – ‘one day at a time’.
Recently, in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar magazine, the actress had revealed her thoughts when she was diagnosed with cancer. She had shared, “So when my PET [Positron Emission Tomography] scan showed up cancer had spread all over my abdomen, like fairy lights scattered all over, and when the doctor in New York said that there was about 30 per cent chance of it all going away, we were shattered.”

The 43-year-old actress has always been open about her journey since the beginning. In the same interview with Harper’s Bazaar magazine, the actress talked about the time when she lost her hair due to treatment and how she embraced her new hair. She revealed, “When I shaved my hair, my friends asked me to keep it, maybe make my own wig out of it, but I wanted the old hair to go, it was not mine. I wanted to let go. I think I hid a lot under my long hair.”
Sonali also took to her Instagram handle and shared a video of her embracing the new hair cut for the magazine’s cover shoot. Along with the video, she penned her feelings and wrote, “Took me a while to get used to having little hair. But once that set in, there was no looking back (literally!) It has been months since I’ve even needed a trim’. So, during the @bazaarindia shoot when @mickeycontractor said that I needed one, my first thought was, Really? Before I could react, he was all set armed with an eyebrow scissor, ready to go at it! I couldn’t stop smiling. Never thought I’d get a makeover of sorts like this, but I guess it’s #MyNewNormal. #SwitchOnTheSunshine #OneDayAtATime.”
