Sonali Bendre has been off films for a while but is still connected to Bollywood, thanks to TV and producer/director Goldie Behl.

She’s close to the Bachchans as Goldie happens to be a chum of Abhishek Bachchan. The friendship with Bachchan Jr. is still quite strong, despite the fact that both the movies these two did together- ‘Bas Itna Sa Khwab Hai’ and ‘Drona’ turned out to be superflops.

Homely Sonali who’s rocking as a mum too now considers her contempory for some years in the industry and who she starred with in ‘Humara Dil Aapke Pas Hai’ many years ago-Aishwarya Rai family.

She’s said: “Aishwarya is family. She is Abhishek’s wife and will always be extremely special. Like I keep telling her that she is extremely sweet but for us she will always be Abhishek’s wife who is so dear and I think she is very happy to accept that.”

Well, it’s nice to know that two beautiful woman can bond like friends and family. This in a place like B-Town is rare as they always end up only squabbling. -Sampurn Media
