Mumbai: Sonali Bendre Behl celebrated Diwali with her husband Goldie Behl and son Ranveer in New York. The 1990s Bollywood diva shared pictures of her Diwali celebrations on Twitter on Thursday.

Sonali wrote: "Diwali in New York happens much later than in Mumbai... Hence the late wish! It was quite an unconventional one... We didn't have Indian clothes, we had a small puja... But it was all heart.  

Happy Diwali everyone! May this year bring you good health, wealth and prosperity! (sic)."

Sonali, who was diagnosed with high-grade cancer in July this year is in the US to undergo treatment.

Friends and relatives of the pretty actress have been with her ever since they learnt about her illness. She has been updating her fans about her health by sharing images and posts on social media.

Sonali broke the news about her illness through an emotional post on Instagram in July.

She wrote: "Sometimes, when you least expect it, life throws you a curveball. I have recently been diagnosed with a high grade cancer that has metastised, which we frankly did not see coming. A niggling pain led to some tests, which led to this unexpected diagnosis. My family and close friends have rallied around me, providing the best support system that anyone can ask for. I am very blessed and thankful for each of them. 
There is no better way to tackle this, than to take swift and immediate action. And so, as advised by my doctors, I am currently undergoing a course of treatment in New York. We remain optimistic and I am determined to fight every step of the way. What has helped has been the immense outpouring of love and support I’ve received over the past few days, for which I am very grateful.

I’m taking this battle head on, knowing I have the strength of my family and friends behind me."

Here's wishing Sonali speedy recovery and a very Happy Diwali.
