Recently, Sonali Bendre came back home after beating cancer successfully. The actress has kept fans updated about her journey on Instagram quite frequently and revealed in an interview that she is getting back to work pretty soon.
She said as “I am definitely getting back to work; I want to work every day of my life now. I don’t know what I will do, so I am leaving that open. I have realised in the last six months that if your brain is working at a fast pace and your body can’t keep up with it, then it can get really frustrating.” She further added that “You know what, we are all going to get to an age where our body won’t keep up with our brain, right now it’s all good and so, I will make the most of it. After I had my son (Ranveer), I said that I want to spend time with him while he was growing up. I did it, and touch wood, he is a good boy. Now, he doesn’t need a mother who is around him all the time. He needs the independence to grow into the person he is. For that to happen, I need to occupy myself, and hence, going to work is the best option for all of us (smiles). These six months have shown me that he can deal with things, and if that is the case, I have to give him that space. I need to be doing my own thing.”

Talking about undergoing chemotherapy, Sonali said, “I had lost all my hair, so people obviously knew that I was going through some treatment, and the kind of sensitivity they showed me was so touching. It could be anyone at the cash counter, grocery store or salon; they figured that I was going through something in life, so just that one smile or one sweet gesture made a difference.”
