Says Malaika, “ I have been learning yoga for some time. Kareena and Amu (Amrita Arora) introduced me to it. Payal Gidwani has been training me. I do yoga thrice a week at home with Payal’s girl, alternating it between gym and pilates. Now I really look forward to my sessions with Kareena and Amu. We are yoga junkies.”

While Malaika has been introduced to asanas by Kareena, Malaika’s husband Arbaaz has been a ‘ yoga junkie’ for many years.“ Arbaaz is into rituals and holistic healing like yoga and vipassana but stopped completely for more than a year.Once he became a producer with Dabangg, he got caught up in pre and post-production work and stopped doing it completely. I have been asking him to start doing it again.” Besides doing yoga thrice a week for an hour Malaika also works out thrice a week. “ I am mostly into weight- training with my trainer when at the gym.” The yummy mummy is planning to bring out a book on healthy food habits and workouts.

Bipasha Basu Shares Her Healthy Living Fundas

"No size zero for me, Curves are hotter than a flat body," says sexy siren Bipasha Basu. Riding high on the success of her fitness video (Get Details Here >>), this Bollywood diva is marching ahead with her message of healthy living. Bips speaks to CS about holistic living and why size zero is a no-no:



Whole and soul
We live in an age where we make too many demands from ourselves. All of us want fabulous careers, great relationships and a jet-set lifestyle, but the quest for all these things takes a toll on you. At times, we are very harsh on ourselves. I want to tell people to accept themselves as they are, and enhance their strengths. And staying in good health is one of the basics to a successful fulfilling life.

No shortcuts here
I feel very sad when I hear that young girls are opting for fad diets or blindly crash dieting. Just spending hours at the gym doesn't guarantee you complete fitness. A fit body is one that goes beyond biceps. You need to eat healthy, workout properly and be happy to achieve complete fitness. I see so many young girls who look so worn out just because of an improper diet and crazy workouts.

Why size zero?
Well, size zero is a western concept, which is not relevant in India. Size zero means someone who is petite or of a small size. It is not related to fitness. By normal standards, a young girl of 13-14 can be size zero. It's very tough for an older woman to look size zero without looking anorexic. And who likes an anorexic looking woman? Indian men love a fuller body with a nice shape. Curves are hotter than a flat body.

Mind over matter
Fitness is not only about the body. Mental and emotional fitness is as important. I am a very contented person. I make sure that I don't let stress affect me. Whenever I am feeling low, I hit the gym, go for a run or do yoga. It helps release all the pressure. The next thing I want to learn is scuba diving.

Soha Ali Khan: Workout Regularly So You Can Eat All The Brownies You Want

Soha Ali Khan’s Fitness Recipe: "LOOK after your fitness and your fitness will look after you or workout regularly so you can eat all the brownies you want!” This is Soha Ali Khan’s mantra in life.


Soha Ali Khan shares her fitness mantra:

Pleasing self
Actually, in reality my workout pattern is very irregular ( smiles). There are phases when I go to the gym daily for weeks on end and workout with lightweights, alternating it with cardio three times a week. Or sometimes I like to keep it varied by playing badminton or practising yoga. But there are also times when I get into my pyjamas, put on a TV series and watch it for days on end, emerging only to make more popcorn or order a take- out.

Peculiar bites
I have notoriously bizarre eating habits. I have an unhealthy obsession with frozen yoghurt, too much diet cola and late night popcorn binges. But I compensate by avoiding excessively oily or spicy food. I am happy eating tandoori chicken, yellow daal and broccoli every day of the week.

Take my breath away
I strongly believe that every person’s fitness regime should include some technique that increases flexibility and stamina through focused breathing. Yoga helps you achieve the right balance. Such exercises make your muscles lean, tone your body, and tackle a specific organ issue or hormonal imbalance and relax the mind. And so, I alternate between yoga and gym workouts.

A must break
My idea of unwinding on a day- to- day basis is taking a hot shower and watching a film or getting stuck in a page- turning murder mystery. But when I’m feeling particularly sore or physically exhausted after a hectic schedule, I pamper myself with massages. And of course, getting away from Mumbai every once in a while is also imperative. I love to go to a beach resort — relax by the sea, have some great food, swim, lie in the sun; great company is a must!

How important is being fit to you?
Ever since my Miss Universe days, fitness and holistic well-being has been extremely important for me.

Your fitness mantra?
For me, it has never been about following a fitness trend. It has always been about following what suits my body best. I have always been dedicated to a good workout. I work out five days a week — combining cardio, strength training and yoga. Being a vegetarian, I make sure I eat enough raw fruits and vegetables, take in good quality vegetable protein, drink lots of water and meditate frequently.

Actors in Bollywood share a strong camaraderie when it comes to sharing fitness tips. Is this seen among actresses too?
Sure we do. In fact, during the shooting of Don 2, all of us would hit the gym together. I have shared tips with Priyanka Chopra during the shoot, and with Deepika Padukone, before that.

What made you come up with a fitness DVD?
I have always been inspired to help women build better bodies. I have been collaborating with experts for a long time and it’s taken over a year of research and the understanding of various body types and requirements to put together the content on the DVDs. Therein was born the concept of H.E.A.L with Lara.

Since you are the only new member in the cast of Don 2, how is the experience so far?
We’ve already begun shooting for Don 2 in Berlin and it has been wonderful so far. The role I essay is very sophisticated and glamorous. Farhan Akhtar is a very talented director and working with Shah Rukh Khan is always fun.

What’s next for your production house Bheegi Basanti?
Once my DVD is released, I move on to my first home production Chalo Dilli with Vinay Pathak.
