(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Sonali Bendre, a beacon of grace and poise in Indian cinema, has captivated audiences with her stunning looks and exceptional talent. Her journey to stardom began in the 1990s, when she became a national crush, and her films, including Sarfarosh, Hum Saath Saath Hai, Diljale, Duplicate, and many more, garnered widespread love and acclaim.
Sonali's
beauty not only won the hearts of her fans but also caught the attention of other celebrities, including the renowned Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar.
In a recent interview with Shubhankar Mishra on his YouTube channel, Sonali Bendre responded to widespread
hearsay
from the 1990s, in which Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar confessed that he would kidnap the diva if she did not accept his proposal. Sonali responded several years later, saying she finds it impossible to believe the cricketer would have said something like that.
In her words:
“I
don't

coming to cricket stadiums to
watch IPL matches since she finds them unpleasant and noisy. She expressed:
“Yes...in the start of the tournament. But
it's
too hot out there [in the stadium] and so much noise, making
quite
uncomfortable to sit.”

actresses and cricketers were extremely prevalent, and many real-world couples married one other for life.
