Namita Nayyar:
Pageants, Movies, Hosting and judging what has been the most enchanting and endearing experience for you?
Neha Dhupia
I feel movies! Pageants is from where it all started my journey. Hosting and Judging bring out diversity in my work and you get to explore more creativity and be yourself. But the most favorite part has been acting and it would always be my true calling.
Namita Nayyar:
Women Fitness India talks about celebrity diets and fitness regime, do you follow any special diet? What according to you is the worst diet fad?
Neha Dhupia
I believe the worst diet fad would be crash dieting, drastic weight loss in very little time is something that really doesn’t work. What I currently follow is that I don’t have any junk, gluten and sugar, besides that I have my dinner’s very early in the evening. I have a very balanced diet more protein, carbohydrates and fats in moderation. For me it has been a yo-yo situation since I had both my children in quick succession. Also quite surreal that I am giving this interview while being on the treadmill as well! *Laughs*
Namita Nayyar:
What comprises of your fitness regime? How do you manage it with your work schedules?
Neha Dhupia:
I try to do 7-8 sessions of workout which includes yoga, cardio-vascular routine. Earlier I didn’t give much importance to weight training but I have come to realise that it is equally very important and aids the rest. I have two wonderful trainers with whom I work out, and amazing yoga coach Rohit Singh, and I believe with time I am getting better at it.
I tend to manage it with my work schedules by giving it an hour before I head to work so like I tend to begin my day early by 5-6 am generally, sometimes when I have late call time I tend to push it a little late but one thing that I have learnt overtime is to give it priority and it’s very important.
