It’s not just our Prime Minister who’s vouching for Yoga, our
Bollywood ladies have been practicing this ancient Indian form of
workout since years and loving it. Most of them also promote it and list
Yoga on top of their fitness secrets, and even encourage their friends
and fans to switch to it for better health.
Check out a few of our Bollywood actresses in their favourite yoga postures and see if it inspires you too!
One can’t begin talking about Yoga sans the mention of Shilpa Shetty
Kundra, who released her own Yoga DVD a few years ago, and swears by
this workout of hers. Guess it was this that helped her shed off her
post-pregnancy kilos so soon. (While Mrs B struggled with her pounds for
very very long time)
Next up is Kareena Kapoor, who almost shocked the nation with her size
zero figure in the movie Tashan. Her super toned abs in the ‘Chhaliya’
number made her a headline maker for months. The actress, however,
attributed her weight loss to her diet and a rigorous yoga session
everyday. Her yoga instructor Payal Gidwani (a known name in the film
industry) even wrote a book named ‘From XL to XS’ and laid down Bebo’s
and many actresses’ daily yoga asanas in it.
After getting all lean and toned, Bebo even urged her spouse Saif to
take to Yoga. Saif, who’d been an ardent gym junkie (like most Bollywood
actors) all these years, also recently began practicing yoga and
attributes his glowing skin to this ancient Indian workout.
The Rockstar girl Nargis Fakhri is 35 years old, but looks 25, thanks to
her Yoga routine. Recently, the actress was seen showing some yoga
asanas at a fitness event.
Sunny Leone too swears by Yoga and apparently, practices it along with her husband Daniel Weber, who’s also her manager.
Sonam Kapoor is said to have shed all her extra kilos via Bikran Yoga to
get all lean and toned for her Bollywood debut. For the uninitiated,
Sonam weighed around 120 kgs once upon a time.
Lara Dutta too has been promoting yoga past couple of years. The actress is said to have practiced it during her pregnancy too.
Talking of mothers, how can we not mention one of the yummiest mummy of
Bollywood – Malaika Arora Khan. Needless to say, yoga keeps those years
off your face! Malaika, by the way, is 41 years old!
Ameesha Patel might be facing troubles climbing up the ladder in her
career. But as far as her looks are concerned, she is fabulously fit and
ever glowing – perhaps yoga is one of her secrets.
Aha! Baba Ramdev perhaps hit it off well with his famous adage – Yoga Se Hoga!
