Cancer patient Sonali Bendre shares her new look, thanks Priyanka Chopra for stylist

Bollywood actor Sonali Bendre, who is undergoing treatment in New York for cancer, has shared her new look. She has been constantly updating her fans about her well-being and often thanks all those who are with supporting her through these tough times.

In her latest post, Sonali shared her new look and thanked actor Priyanka Chopra for introducing her to a stylist who gave her the makeover. Because of her chemotherapy, Sonali went bald but she has now decided to sport a wig when she feels like it.

She shared a video collage of her pictures and wrote a quote of Al Pacino: “Vanity is my favourite sin.” She added, “Well, it might not be my all-time favourite sin (that would be gluttony ), but who doesn’t like looking good? The way we look has a profound psychological impact on us… A little vanity here and there does no one any harm. It’s important to do what makes you happy, even if it’s something as simple as wearing a wig, bright red lipstick, high heels…. When I was testing out the wigs, I had a brief moment of self-doubt… “Am I vain for wanting to look good?”

“Vanity is my favourite sin.” – Al Pacino Well, it might not be my all-time favourite sin (that would be gluttony 😋), but who doesn’t like looking good? The way we look has a profound psychological impact on us… A little vanity here and there does no one any harm. It’s important to do what makes you happy, even if it’s something as simple as wearing a wig, bright red lipstick, high heels…. All that white noise doesn’t make a difference in the larger picture. No one can tell you what’s right or wrong for you. When I was testing out the wigs, I had a brief moment of self-doubt… “Am I vain for wanting to look good?” As part of the entertainment industry, you’re always expected to look good… Maybe that has been ingrained in me? But then I gave it a thought and I realized I like looking good for me. If I’m in the mood to wear a scarf, I will. If I want to walk around bald and free, I will. Only you know what would make you feel good, and what works best for you. So take every opportunity you can to #SwitchOnTheSunshine. #OneDayAtATime 🙏🌞 Thank you @priyankachopra for connecting me with the amazing @bokheehair, who created my new look.
