For actors, maintaining fitness is not just about looking good on screen—it is about staying strong, energetic, and mentally sharp. With demanding shooting schedules and unpredictable routines, setting fitness resolutions can be challenging. However, many actors remain committed to their goals, whether it is building strength, improving endurance, or adopting a healthier lifestyle alongside their professional careers. &TV artists share their fitness goals, the challenges of balancing workouts with hectic shoots, and the physical and mental transformations they have experienced.
These include Vikram Dwivedi (Vishambhar Singh, Bheema), Geetanjali Mishra (Rajesh, Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Vidisha Srivastava (Anita Bhabhi, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Vikram Dwivedi, aka Vishambhar Singh from Bheema, shares, “My fitness resolution this year is to maintain my current shape for a lifetime. To achieve this, I have completely cut out sugar and focused on balancing my intake of carbs, protein, and fibre. I prefer a gym-free approach, relying on allied workouts that I practice daily, even amidst a hectic schedule. My fitness journey began in 2019 when I weighed around 58 kg. Today, at 70 kg, I have reached an ideal weight for my height. Since then, my body has undergone significant changes, with noticeable growth and strength in every part. This transformation has not only enhanced my physique but also boosted my overall health and well-being, keeping me motivated to stay consistent.”
Geetanjali Mishra, aka Rajesh from Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, shares, “My fitness resolution this year is to maintain a healthy, well-functioning heart. I prioritize staying hydrated by consuming ample water throughout the day and carrying a bottle filled with fresh fruit or vegetable juice. Additionally, I incorporate regular meditation breaks between tasks to maintain a sense of relaxation. Despite occasional cravings, I consciously try to avoid junk food, opting instead for a diet rich in leafy greens, fresh vegetables, fruits, and milk. I encourage everyone to prioritize healthy eating habits to support overall well-being and ensure proper hydration for a healthier lifestyle.” Vidisha Srivastava, aka Anita Bhabhi from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, shares, “Fitness, for me, is not just about looking good but feeling strong and energetic every day. This year, I am focusing on a well-rounded approach—keeping my body and heart healthy with regular cardio, prioritizing hormonal balance by listening to my body and strengthening my core for overall wellness. I also believe in making fitness fun! Whether it is trying new dance workouts, hiking, or simply enjoying a mindful yoga session, I want to keep it sustainable and enjoyable. Most importantly, I remind myself that progress matters more than perfection. Small, consistent efforts lead to lasting results, and that is my mantra for a healthier, happier me!”
