Actress Sonali Bendre, currently undergoing treatment for cancer in New York, now sports a new look, courtesy Priyanka Chopra. In a lengthy Instagram post, Sonali Bendre thanked Priyanka for introducing her to a stylist who gave her the new look. "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," read an excerpt from her post. Sonali Bendre has opted for a wig and in the post, she revealed that when she was 'testing them out, she has a brief moment of self-doubt.'
"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," she wrote, adding a thank you note for Priyanka.
