On International Men's Day, celebrated annually on November 19th, actress Sonali Bendre took to social media to express her gratitude for the significant men in her life: her father Jit Bendre, her husband Goldie Behl, and their son Ranveer Behl.

In a heartfelt note accompanying a photo, Sonali acknowledged the roles each man plays in her life. She described her father as "the man who raised me," her husband as "the man who holds me," and her son as "the little man who fills my world with wonder". The actress added, "Forever grateful for them #HappyInternationalMensDay Here's to celebrating them a little extra today, and in the everyday too".

Sonali Bendre's celebration aligns with the core values of International Men's Day, which recognizes the positive impact men bring to the world. The day also serves as a global awareness initiative, addressing issues men face, including abuse, homelessness, suicide, and violence, while prioritizing men's health and emotional well-being.

Sonali and Goldie Behl's relationship began on the set of her film "Naaraaz," which starred Mithun Chakraborty. They married in November 2002 in Mumbai and welcomed their son, Ranveer, in 2005.
