You look great. What do you do to maintain your svelte figure?
I go to the gym regularly. I am not a cardio person at all, but I love weight training. Apart from working out, I absolutely love dance, whether Bollywood, contemporary, or Latin.
What about your diet?
I do not adhere to any one diet and believe in eating everything. It is a popular fad nowadays to eliminate carbohydrates from your diet, but I find it silly. Carbohydrates are a great source of energy – what matters is how much you eat, and how clean you eat. You cannot eat a biryani and say that you have had your share of carbohydrates for the day.
And that flawless skin. What is the secret behind it?
I believe that when you are genuinely happy, it reflects on your skin. So, that’s the secret to my flawless skin – being happy. Also, I take good care of my skin – I prefer to use products that work well for me and never allow myself the liberty of being lazy and sleeping with makeup on.
Any home remedies you like?
On a few occasions, when I have zits, I apply toothpaste. It dries them out completely – works like magic, every single time.
