Planets, likely anything with mass, will bend light. More massive planets will bend light more. Under normal circumstances, planets are not massive enough to allow us to clearly see this, but the concept has been shown with stars and our sun, and the principle applies to anything with mass including planets
The most obvious things which happens to sunlight when it hits a planet is that it will heat the planets' surfaces and/or atmospheres. The sunlight will also be reflected back, which is why we see planets in the sky as large bright lighted "dots", similar to the stars in the sky.

sunlight
The planets and the moon shine because of what sunlight?

Why do the planets appear shiny from space?
Other planets appear shiny from Earth for the same reason the moon does, we see the other planets' reflected sunlight.

Yes, planets reflect light from both the Sun and the Moon. Planets reflect sunlight because they do not have their own light source. The light reflected from the Moon is actually sunlight that has been reflected off the Moon's surface.
Why do moons and planets appear to look shiny?
