Sonali Bendre shares heart touching lesson on self-care
Undoubtedly, Bollywood diva Sonali Bendre is a warrior who doesn’t know how to give up. The actress, who is in New York undergoing metastatic cancer treatment, has become an epitome of courage and dignity for one and all. We were still not over with her gorgeous pictures with Anupam Kher and Rishi Kapoor and the actress herself treated us with another breath-taking click but what left us teary-eyed is the long caption in which she talked about her journey of self-love.
Sonali took to her Instagram and shared a picture in which she is seen getting ready, applying Kajal in those beautiful eyes. The picture is most probably before the actress went to meet veteran Bollywood actor Rishi Kapoor and wife Neetu Kapoor to spend some quality time with them. In the emotional post, Sonali opened her heart about her good days as well as bad days when everything in her body hurt and she could not bear the pain. She wrote, “Over the past couple of months, I have had good days and bad ones. There have been days when I’ve been so exhausted and in so much pain that even lifting a finger hurt. I feel like sometimes it’s a cycle… one that starts off with physical pain and leads to mental and emotional pain. The bad days have been many… Post chemo, post-surgery and the like… where even just laughing hurts.”
Keeping up with her positive attitude towards life, the actress further wrote, “It’s important to remember that we’re allowed to have those bad days……I allowed myself to cry, to feel the pain, to indulge in self-pity… for a short while. Only you know what you’re going through and it is fine to accept it. Emotions aren’t wrong. Feeling negative emotions isn’t wrong. But after a point, identify it, recognize it and refuse to let it control your life.”
Sonali concludes her long post on a positive note that her focus right now is on getting better and get back home. Even on her hardest days, the actress makes sure she is never short of positivity around her and brings out the best in everything from her surroundings. After all, that is the sign of a true Hero, as actor Anupam Kher calls her.
Sonali Bendre had a gala time recently as she met with Rishi, Neetu Kapoor as well as Anupam Kher and enjoyed her time with them. The veteran actors showered all their love and blessings on the beautiful actress. Here are the pictures-
