Looking towards healthier and happier 2019: Sonali Bendre on New Year's Eve

Mumbai, Dec 31 (IBNS): Actress Sonali Bendre, who is suffering from cancer, on Monday wrote a piece on social media hoping for a "healthier and happier 2019".

Sonali took to Instagram to share a few images saying, "Throwback to my last blow-dry before I cut my hair. Now that my hair is gradually growing back.... Maybe I can look forward to another blow-dry in 2019! This journey has been immense, and has taught me so so much."

"From being in awe of the body's willingness and capacity to fight and heal and recover to overwhelming gratitude to the people who have stood by me and been pillars of strength to being reminded of life's transience and that things come and go (much like my hair). Here's looking towards a healthier and happier 2019. Onwards and upwards," she wrote.

The actress, who will turn 44 on Tuesday, had taken to Twitter to announce that she has been diagnosed with “high-grade cancer” 

She went to New York and underwent treatment for the disease. 

Known for her soothing beauty, Sonali received critical acclaim for her performances in Diljale in 1996, followed by Bhai (1997), Sarfarosh, Zakhm, Duplicate, Kadhalar Dhinam (Tamil film), Hum Saath-Saath Hain: We Stand United (1999), Tera Mera Saath Rahen (2001) and Anahat (2003) among others.
