Sonali Bendre born on January 1st 1975. She started out as a model before being selected for the "Stardust Talent Search". She was invited to Bombay and received training from a variety of top actors and performers of the Indian film industry. Sonali has three sisters and was in her own words a quiet child who loved to read, while she was growing up.

Since her debut in 1994, Sonali has appeared in several films and has starred opposite top stars such as Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh. Sonali was also awarded the price of "Newcomer of the year" in 1995. She keeps munching away, yet flashing that 'body' to die for striking poses, each sexier than the one before.
