When one thinks of Bollywood and fitness, one name immediately comes to mind, Malaika Arora. The model, actor, and VJ has over the years established herself as a fitness enthusiast. Arora regularly shares yoga videos with her 18.8 million Instagram followers. Most recently, she shared a video that showed her doing yoga poses by using a wall to support her poses.
In the short clip, Arora demonstrated more than 10 wall yoga poses. These were: extended triangle pose, straight plank, low plank, single leg headstand, wall headstand, variation of Marjariasana, Salabhasana, wall crunches, upward plank pose, hip bridge with press, bridge press, and shoulder stand variation .
With this video, he proved that one doesn’t need a range of fancy equipment to do yoga. Just a wall and a good knowledge of yoga is enough to make a perfect yoga routine. Arora wore a black sports bralette and black biker shorts that accentuated her fit and toned body, even at 50. Sharing the wall yoga video, she wrote, “Sky above, earth below, peace within.” This video has received over 53,000 likes since it was shared on May 1. The Instagram user said, “I would love to do this under your guidance.”
In a 2021 interview with The Statesman, Arora said that her favorite exercise is yoga and that she does at least 60 minutes of yoga every day. The Chaiyya Chaiyya star said, “I start my day with a good morning session of yoga and then I step out to do a mix of other fitness activities as well as HIIT, walking, running, swimming, etc.” Although she is a fitness freak, Arora said she does not believe in strict diets. He explained, “I eat what my body asks for and what my mind wants, in moderation of course.”
Arora took her love of yoga an extra mile when she co-founded Diva Yoga studio which has multiple branches in Mumbai and Chennai. Speaking to Elle about what inspired her to start a yoga studio, Arora said, “I was introduced to yoga years ago when I had an injury, and since then my love for it has only grown stronger. So when the opportunity to be a part of Diva Yoga came my way, I jumped at it. It aligns with my beliefs about fitness, my love of yoga, and more importantly, I’ve always wanted to create a yoga studio that was dedicated to women.”
