New Delhi [India], Feb 3 (ANI): Bollywood actor Sonali Bendre, who spent months in New York battling cancer, recently returned to the sets, a feeling she described as “surreal." 
The 44-year-old actor took to Instagram to post a photo and video sharing that she has returned to work “after a major sabbatical.”
“Being back on a set after a major sabbatical – one that has been testing in many ways on so many levels – is a surreal feeling. After all this, I sort of feel an additional sense of purpose and meaning and I'm so grateful to be back in action,” she wrote.
“I don’t think words would do justice to how beautiful it feels to be back at work...to face the camera again and portray the range of emotions required. Given that my emotions have been running high for the last couple of months, it feels good to give into the emotions that the job requires. It's just the kind of day that helps me #SwitchOnTheSunshine#OneDayAtATime,” she added.
