Sonal Bendre bids farewell Actress Sonali Bendre and her husband film producer and director Goldie Behl bid farewell to their family Ganapati on Saturday in Mumbai.
Talking about Ganapati celebrations, Sonali said, “We hosted 1.5 days of Ganapati. Whenever Bappa leaves us we feel really sad as we don’t want him to go. It’s been five years, we are hosting him at our house and my son demands that we should host him each and every year.”
“In Maharashtrian families it’s a close knit affair where entire family comes together to celebrate Ganesh-Utsav.”
“Each year, we bring eco-friendly Ganesh Murti and we are immersing Lord Ganesh into the sea”
When asked what she wished for in front of Ganesha, she said, “I don’t really wish for anything from him. It’s like two days of therapeutic process for us. I only seek happiness, love and peace for everyone from him”
Sonali has been often seen judging reality shows, which are mostly related to children. A few months earlier, readers may know that, she had turned author with her bestselling book ‘The Modern Gurukul: My Experiments with Parenting’. Buoyed with the success of the book, the graceful actress has now planned to pursue her passion further with ‘Sonali’s Book Club’.
Through the medium of ‘Sonali’s Book Club’, she has formed a community of readers who discuss various books on Facebook. Sonali Bendre wants to encourage people to read more often and have an interesting exchange of ideas and thoughts. With ‘Sonali’s Book Club’, Sonali Bendre plans to introduce a new book every 10 days, depending on the length of the novel. And the very first book that the actress-author has chosen is a science fiction ‘Wool’ by Hugh Howey.to Ganapati
