This morning, Sonali Bendre shared something that
broke our heart. The actor tweeted that she has contracted high
grade cancer, which has metastasised.
The tweet read: “Sometimes, when you least expect it,
life throws you a curveball. I have recently been diagnosed with a high grade
cancer that has metastised, which we frankly did not see coming. A niggling
pain led to some tests, which led to this unexpected diagnosis. My family and
close friends have rallied around me, providing the best support system that
anyone can ask for. I am very blessed and thankful for each of them.”
“There is no better way to tackle this, than to take
swift and immediate action. And so, as advised by my doctors, I am currently
undergoing a course of treatment in New York. We remain optimistic and I am
determined to fight every step of the way. What has helped has been the immense
outpouring of love and support I’ve received over the past few days, for which
I am very grateful. I’m taking this battle head on, knowing I have the strength
of my family and friends behind me."
We now hear, her friend Akshay Kumar had met her a couple
of days back in New York after hearing of her illness, and speaking to HT,
sending his prayers. “I know that Sonali is a fighter. May God help bring her
back in the best of health.
