Actress Sonali Bendre is quite active on Instagram. She kept her fans updated during her journey of battling cancer. And now, she keeps sharing visuals from her day-to-day life. Bendre and her better half, filmmaker Goldie Behl recently celebrated their marriage anniversary.
On their 19th wedding anniversary, Sonali took to her Instagram to share a video compilation of their pictures. In one of the photos, Goldie can be seen lovingly looking at Sonali and in the other one, he can be seen touching her hair.
Actor Sanjay Kapoor’s wife, Maheep Kapoor commented on the video, “Happy anniversary guys.” Actress Neelam Kothari wrote, “Happiest anniversary guys @goldiebehl.” Actor Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda left a heart on the montage of pictures.
In July 2018, Sonali was diagnosed with metastatic cancer. In 2019, when she recovered from that, she wrote a heartwarming post for her husband on Instagram for their anniversary. Sonali penned, “He has put everything on standby and has been focusing so much on me… and now I’m turning the focus back on him. P.S. Happy Anniversary @goldiebehl, I love you more than you could imagine… thank you for being my pillar of strength in health & sickness… literally!”
Goldie and Sonali first met on the sets of the film Naaraaz in 1994. As per the article by Bollywood Shaadies, on being asked about their first meeting, Goldie has said, “I bumped into Sonali on the sets of the film Naaraaz. My sister Shrishti Arya knew her well but I didn’t know her at all. I just found her attractive. (Winks) I still do. So our first conversation was about food and to date most of the time, we simply talk about food. (Laughs) Now, most of it is about how little I should eat.”
He further added, “Eventually, our friendship turned into romance. But initially, the affections were one-sided. She was in denial. I didn’t give up on her though. Even my mom asked me not to let go of her. She thought Sonali was an amazing girl. For the first time in my life, I heeded my mom’s advice and thank God for that. Long drives and heated political discussions were instrumental in strengthening our bond. And in no time, we were seeing each other.”
