Sonali Bendre was diagnosed with cancer in 2018. Her family specially her husband, Goldie Behl stood by her as a pillar of strength for his wife during the hard phase of their lives. Along with Sonali, Goldie’s works were also on hold as he had to be with his wife all the time. His main priority was Sonali and her treatment.
While speaking to PTI, Goldie said, “The film slate has not been affected by Covid-19, I have put it on hold for the moment. I am focusing more of my energies, ever since 2018 after I went to New York with Sonali, it was a life-altering situation for all of us. I have decided to focus more on the digital platform. So the film slate is on pause right now, but because of my own decision and not Covid-19.”

He further said, “I am enjoying the OTT world. I haven’t given a thought to film direction. I’m not saying I won’t ever make one, but I’m not consciously looking to make a film or seeking a film script.”
He finished the second season of his Zee5 show ‘RejctX’ just before the pandemic took an ugly turn. “Season two was quite challenging because we were trying to amplify thrill, plot and pace. There were a lot of physical challenges as we were shooting. The pandemic grew as we were shooting and a lot of precautions were taken on set. Fortunately we were in a country that had dealt with SARS so they were very well equipped to handle even this right at the beginning when we did start shooting,” he said.
