She may be an actor, and wife to a producer, but Sonali Bendre Behl credits her middle-class Maharashtrian upbringing for having inspired her to launch a Facebook book club that's been steadily gathering supporters. With her father in the central government, and a homemaker mother, Bendre was used to a home without television, but a lot of books.
