As Shilpa Shetty Kundra turns 51, her relationship with fitness remains one of Bollywood’s most enduring wellness examples. Since making her screen debut in Baazigar in 1993, the actor has built a public image around discipline, yoga, clean eating and movement. Her philosophy on fitness is both refreshing and profound: she encourages embracing fitness not as a mundane task, but as a vibrant celebration of the body’s capabilities and its uplifting impact on the mind. A steadfast advocate of holistic wellbeing, she emphasises the critical role of clean eating and a balanced lifestyle in achieving overall health.
In a recent outtake on Instagram, she offered a glimpse into a specific workout routine comprising the extended arm plank with hip extensions, side elbow plank with hip dips and elbow plank with hip abduction and adduction. These exercises, are performed in three sets of 15-20 repetitions each, striking a balance between intensity and manageability. This routine not only strengthens the core but also works the arms, legs, shoulders and back muscles, building muscular endurance. The beauty of this workout is that it is achievable with just a mat and a 20-minute commitment.

Calling it her “recipe for washboard abs”, the Sukhee actor recommends that those new to fitness begin with simpler core-strengthening exercises and gradually work their way up to more complex routines, such as hers. However, beginners and yoga enthusiasts can rejoice in the fact that Shetty Kundra offers a comprehensive fitness regimen that seamlessly blends yoga and meditation into everyday life.
While the physical benefits include improved strength, flexibility and overall physical health, the mental and spiritual advantages extend to enhanced self-awareness, emotional balance and a deeper connection with one’s inner self.
