Namita Nayyar:
In this journey what has been your strength on days of initial struggles and rejections?
Surbhi Chandna:
The biggest support system for me has to be my parents and my sister, from day 1 my parents have been through my journey, I have always lived with them, they have seen it all with me and they have always told me to complete my studies and then venture into this industry because they knew how unpredictable this field can be so, therefore, I completed my master’s so in case if something doesn’t work I have a backup plan and I know that my family is there to support me.
Namita Nayyar:
Women Fitness India talks about celebrity diets and more, do you follow any special diet? What is your favorite cuisine?
Surbhi Chandna:
I am a Punjabi, so as cliche as it may sound whatever I eat directly shows up on my tummy and my face *laughs* but at the same as we age we tend to slow our metabolism and therefore we need to take care more of what we eat, I try to follow intermittent fasting when it comes to dieting, and it is working great for me besides that I avoid gluten in my food and prefer having millets and rice rather.
When it comes to working out I don't like to work out in the gym, lifting weights is something just not for me, rather I choose to do yoga which I find more comforting.
My favorite cuisines, uhmmm I love food and can’t pick one, be it Lebanese, south Indian, Maharashtrian, or Goan cuisine I like them all.
Namita Nayyar:
What consists of your fitness routine? Besides physical fitness how do you keep up with your mental wellness?
Surbhi Chandna:
When it comes to mental wellness, I try to surround myself with things that make me happy, like being on the set is my happy space also surrounding myself with people who have a positive outlook is something I tend to do so to keep myself in a healthy mental space, also doing things that keep me happy like reading books playing games anything that relaxes my mind and keeps me happy.
Namita Nayyar:
In 2024 what is your go-to mantra when it comes to trolling and negativity around you?
Surbhi Chandna:
My mantra has always been to avoid and ignore. To be very honest I don’t read and look into trolls and negative comments and that’s how I have always been. Ignorance is bliss and that has been my mantra so far in the industry and life.
