Bollywood actor Sonali Bendre’s husband Goldie Behl and son Ranveer joined her for Diwali celebration in New York, on Wednesday.

She has been in New York for treatment after being diagnosed with cancer in July.

The actor shared a set of pictures on Instagram from her ‘unconventional’ Diwali with details about the way they celebrated the festival. She wrote, “Diwali in New York happens much later than in Mumbai… Hence the late wish! It was quite an unconventional one… We didn’t have Indian clothes, we had a small puja… But it was all heart. Happy Diwali everyone! May this year bring you good health, wealth and prosperity… Hope you celebrated this festival with your family and friends, and hope you cherish every moment of happiness with them!”

They celebrated the Diwali, with a small puja and some good time spent together. The small puja was ‘all heart’ with ‘gulab jamun’ and dry fruits as bhog.

Sonali recently attended Priyanka Chopra’s bridal shower and looked all fierce in red. She shared a picture of her, Priyanka and Neetu Kapoor.

The actress, who is an avid reader, also shared a picture of her with the book she is currently reading. She wrote, “Time to announce the next book! The last one took a while, as my eyesight was doing strange things due to the chemo and I couldn’t read for a while. Was panicking a bit, but now all is well again! Whew! The next book for SBC is set in the city I’m currently in, New York… it’s called A Little Life by @hanyayanagihara. It’s been nominated for so many literary awards and is a story of friendship and ambition. We’ve read books with female friendships before, but this is our first one on friendship among boys… Should be interesting. Can’t wait to start reading it, and I hope you read it with me too. ”
