Personal fitness mantra?

Since I was nine years old, have been doing meditation and power yoga.

Personal diet mantra?

I do not have a sweet tooth but have sweet teeth! Hence I tend to eat sweets by the dozens. But I make sure that I cut down on carbs and consume food that is higher on proteins like fruits, chicken and paneer. On the other hand, I avoid eating potatoes and other fattening food.

Are you a foodie?

Yes, I am a big foodie.

Exercise routine?

My exercise routine is a mix of Power yoga and Tibetan yoga followed by meditation; all this in a span of three hours.

Are you a vegetarian or a non-vegetarian?

I only savor on chicken and eggs as part of my non-vegetarian diet.

Favourite cuisine?

For a person like me selecting a particular cuisine is a very big task. This is because I love eating food be it Chinese, Thai, India, Mexican or Italian.

Favourite dish…

As I said, I love eating everything.

A must on your breakfast table!

It is said that whenever one wakes up in the morning, a person should eat something within 175 minutes. So I start my day with a glass of warm water and a fruit followed by my three-hour exercise session. After that I eat oats or breakfast cooked by my mother.

Sugar or sugar-free tea/coffee…

I like having milk.

Lunch generally consists of?

I eat two chapattis, dal and vegetables or chicken curry.

Dinner generally consists of?

My dinner generally consists of a salad of boiled chicken.

Dessert delights?

I drool on chocolates and ice-creams.

My favourite drink (non-alcoholic)!

My favourite drink is fresh juice particularly that of water melon.

My favourite drink (alcoholic)!

I do not have alcohol.

Most unusual dish I have tasted?

Once I and one of my best friend ate Maggi bhaji. My friend used the spices that one uses to cook vegetable instead of the maggi masala.

Experiment with food…

Yes, once I had brown bread sautéed in butter with dry fruits, nutella and whipped cream. It was just euphoric!

On the streets, I love to have…

I love eating paani-puri. I also make sure that I have a gola and pav bhaji whenever I go to Juhu beach.

Do you cook?

No.

Fitness tip?

Rather than heavy training, I would like to advise people to meditate as it helps a lot. I feel one should be fit from inside to be happy.
