Maayka's Soni turns to Yoga
Where many of our television stars are heading to their hometowns for a short vacation that's come their way due to the strike, Shilpa Shinde (Soni of Maayka, Zee TV) is finding her equilibrium.
Shilpa has joined a yoga class and says she'll throw herself into it for the duration of her break.
"I've joined the 15-day course in Anushakti Kendra, which deals with problems like acidity and blood pressure," Shilpa said, "I'm told it plays an important role in retoxicating the body completely."
TV stars work a manic schedule and 12-hour shifts are not uncommon. The glare of the arc lights makes their work particularly taxing. Shilpa hopes to pick up the best of what is available during the course. "It has vipasana meditation and ayurvedic panchakarma treatments," she said.
Shilpa is already a week into the course. "The first two days, the entire day, I had to give to Yoga," she said of her schedule so far, "panchakarma will start now."
Has she been asked to change her lifestyle?
"I've to abstain from chappaties and non-veg food, which is very difficult for me as I am a regular non-veg eater!," Shilpa said, "and I have to eat green leafy vegetables."
Apart from this, she's been advised to stop watching TV - easy to do with the strike on! - to keep her cool and talk as little as possible. Asked what she chose Yoga, Shilpa said: "My sis has come over from the US and she had done this there and told me about it. That decided it for me."
This is not the first time that she's doing this. Shilpa says she's a regular practitioner of basic yoga, and does it at least once a week. Religious Shilpa also returned from Shirdi on Wednesday, where she went to seek Sai Baba's blessings.
