NEW YORK - Indian model-turned-actress Sonali Bendre has thanked her friends for being “pillars of strength” as she undergoes treatment for cancer.

“This is me,” Bendre started the post, revealing her bald head for the first time.

“And in this moment, I am really happy. People give me strange looks when I say that now, but it’s true and I’ll tell you why. I am now paying attention to every moment, looking for every opportunity to find joy and #SwitchOnTheSunshine.”She quoted.

The actress continued: “Yes, there are moments of pain and low energy, but I am doing what I like, spending time with people I love, and feeling very loved and happy.

“I am extremely grateful to my friends, my pillars of strength, who at a moment’s notice, arrived to be with me and help me through this. In between their busy schedules, they find time to visit, call, message, FaceTime… basically never leaving a moment for me to feel alone. Thank you for showing me what true friendship is.”

The star added that she now spends “far less time getting ready because I don’t have to fuss over my hair!”

Bendre has also spoken about the challenge of telling her 13-year-old son, Ranveer, about her illness. “As much as we wanted to protect him, we knew it was important to tell him the full facts,” she said in an Instagram post.
