How I Keep Fit

...

.

What8217;s your experience with diets?
Before I started modelling, I put myself on a diet. I did lose weight, but I wouldn8217;t recommend that to anyone. The diet Mickey Mehta put me on really worked well for me. I could basically eat whatever I enjoyed, but in moderation. It was wholesome food without the unnecessary oil and spices. Right now I8217;m following a diet my model friend Ignatius has put me on. I can eat everything, except whatever disagrees with my blood group, namely sweet corn and chicken.

How often do you binge?
I give in whenever I feel like it. My binges revolve around spicy food, not chocolates or anything sweet. I have pickles and green chillies with my meals, and get cravings for street food. But I don8217;t overeat. I8217;ll have a plate of paani puri, or share a chaat with a friend.

What are your work-outs like?
I started exercising again after four years. I used to be well toned, but as I8217;m growing older, I realised I wasn8217;t as fit as I used to be. So I do 20 to 30 minutes of skipping for cardio, followed by crunches, squats and stretching.

Did you have to tone up for your appearance in Bluffmaster8217;s Right here right now?
No, I think they chose the models for the video because of the way they already looked. I wasn8217;t too sure if I8217;d be any good in a music video, but it8217;s turned out quite classy, not like a tacky item number.
