Manisha Koirala has been a huge help: Sonali Bendre on fighting cancer
Actress Sonali Bendre, is taking everything that life has thrown upon her with a pinch of salt. Even cancer can’t bend her optimistic and never-say-die attitude. Ever since she has been diagnosed with high-grade cancer, instead of dropping the curtains, the actress chose to chronicle her journey through recovery on social media. At a recent event, the actress said that Manisha Koirala helped her fight the disease. She said, "Manisha (Koirala) has been a big help. She has been through it and is a survivor. She has also written a lovely book about it."
Manisha was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2012, but was declared cancer-free by mid-2014 after undergoing treatment.
Sonali says that her mother and husband Goldie Behl have been her biggest strength. "Goldie has been my rock and pillar of strength to help me fight cancer. Thank God, I decided to get married to him," she said.
She added, "My mother always told me that human being matters more. Of course, there are times when you realise material things are also important, which gets you the treatment in the US, but even that cannot give you the joy the family gives and sees you through it. That is the most important thing."
