Celeb diet

Breakfast
My breakfast is probably the healthiest of all the meals I have in a day. It consists of a mosambi juice or a banana shake (or during the mango season, it has to be a mango shake) followed by a mug of milk. When I don't have a banana shake, I make it a point to eat a whole banana.
Lunch
Lunch is anything that is available on the sets or cooked at home. I am a vegetarian. I eat a wholesome lunch consisting of rice, daal, rotis, salad, papad, etc.
Mid-Meal
Again, it can be anything that is available at hand - a sandwich, bhel, vadas, anything.
Dinner
If I'm at home I eat anything that is cooked. But for almost five days a week, I eat outside food and I absolutely tuck into anything that catches my fancy - right from Chinese fried rice and Manchurian to butter kulchas with some spicy veg gravy! Yum!
Exercise routine
What's that? Seriously, I have never exercised. At the most the only exercise I follow, if I may classify it as one, is to laugh a lot!
Naini's recommendation
Breakfast
Avoid milk shakes and juices. Have fruits instead.
Lunch
Do not have papad. Opt for rotis made with jowar or jav atta in the summer and bajra or makai for other seasons. These provide fibre and loads of energy and are also very filling.
Mid meal
Make it a point to consume some dry fruits - they will work as your natural intake of sugar.
Dinner
More or less the same as lunch. You can also try idlis and dosas. Make it a point to have one cup of fresh yoghurt everyday or else the vitamin B content of your body will drop causing severe repercussions.
Exercise routine
Incorporate some kind of exercise into your routine. It is important. Yoga, meditation, short walks or a swim are very beneficial. —Reshma S Kulkarni
