- “When I received my Cancer diagnosis, my first thought was, ‘Why me?’ I’d wake up thinking it was all a nightmare; I couldn’t believe that this could happen to me. That’s when I started to change the way I thought. Instead of ‘why me?’ I started asking, ‘Why not me?’ I started to feel grateful this wasn’t happening to my sister, or my son. I realized I had the strength to deal with this, I had the resources to go to the best hospitals, and the support system to help me through this. Starting to ask ‘why not me?’ helped me start the healing process.”
From Hum Saath Saath Hain to Zee5’s The Broken News, Sonali Bendre stole hearts across India as the poster girl for 90s Bollywood, but she kept them with her unwavering spirit during her public battle with Stage 4 Cancer. In this episode, she reveals the mindset that got her through it all.
Sonali explains how she went from feeling like an outsider in Bollywood to seeing the industry rally around her during her illness. She talks about how she found solace in science throughout her treatment, how Cancer became her ultimate teacher, and how she changed the Bollywood beauty standard.
In this episode of Fittr presents Realign, Sonali breaks down the power of positivity, how to speak to your body with your brain, and the best way to tackle imposter syndrome.
We talked about:
. How Sonali’s upbringing shaped her mindset
. Bollywood’s beauty standard
. Managing stress
. How Sonali stayed positive through Cancer
. How to control the body with the mind
. Actionable steps to heal the body
. How to measure health
. Sonali’s relationship with fear
. How cancer changed her perception of beauty
. Parenting through cancer
. The role of love in recovery
. Bollywood’s reaction to her cancer diagnosis
. How to draw boundaries
. The mindset that beat stage 4 cancer

I learnt SO much about overcoming & developing a mindset that can’t be defeated!
A must watch for anyone who thinks that they’re being challenged!
This episode is one of those that we’ll keep coming back to for inspiration! 🙏🏻❤️
Same mindset dear ❤❤
Good job!
I really can't forget her as Preeti from Hum Saath Saath Hain. She just nailed that roal❤.......
I am a cancer patient from last two and half years. I am still under treatment. God is good all the time.
Unfortunately the reality is that most people don’t have the kind of money to afford treatment in a different country. I appreciate her journey and can’t begin to understand what she dealt with. Very glad she overcame however I know a lot of people who couldn’t make it through because they didn’t have the support system.
I agree with you.... and yet she has been interviewed several times on the same topic... she could afford to spend crores to save her life... and all she needed was courage to fight cancer... but that is not all that you need to fight this dreaded disease... my husband fought cancer bravely 4 times in his life... and lost the battle the 5th time... his story is more inspiring as apart from fighting cancer multiple times, there is a parallel story on how he managed to treat himself successfully in India itself.... He was diagnosed with 2 different types of cancer in one lifetime...
Sadly, such people are forgotten... only because he wasn't a celebrity..
I keep watching this episode over and over again, it's one of your best. My mother battled cancer, and I often wondered, why her? She was such a simple person with no bad habits. When Sonali said, "why not me," it answered all my questions. I lost my mother 12 years ago, and at one point, I didn't know how to cope with life. However, life goes on, and it actually improves with time.
Thank you, Karishma, for hosting such a beautiful and inspiring episode. I can't express how much I admire you. You've changed my life in so many ways.
More power to you. ❤️

Wonderful 😊
I subscribed and one request..please change the clickbait in a way that shows how great she is as a person (not only a cancer survivor).it kinda feel negative.
Thankyou for this podcast karishma and team❤
Thank you for watching! ❤️
oh, what a beautiful discourse🤍
The greatest takeaway- is to treat our parents as our children now, now that they have come to an age when they do not understand many things modern..we often get annoyed cause they don’t understand stuffs and we get impatient and rude to them..which is just so sad…
so, it’s a beautiful way of putting into a perspective that we can treat our parents as kids and love them, answer them with all the patience we would have with our own kids🤍🙏🏼…i am so glad that i came across this wisdom through the team of HOB…now i can bring this positive change into my own behaviour towards my dear old parents.🌸…
This is so sweet. Thank you so much! 🙏🏻❤️
So much to learn ...about parenting, nurturing love, patience......❤

Lost my d in law to cancer at a young age
Hindi me bola kariye jisse sabhi mahilayen achche se samajh jaye
Neuroplasticity...
There are actually 5 stages, a person go through after getting any bad news .1- Denial ---- It cannot happen to me 2 * Anger -Why it happened to me, Why God has been unkind to me 3*- Negotiation -----It can be wrong information due to error or mistake , it can be corrected etc. 4- Acceptance --- when person now starts accepting that it really happened to me 5---- Finally ,5th stage is Depression or sadness . Its very important to go through all these 5 stages to overcome the bad news .
Thank you for noting this down! 🙏🏻
