Bubbly, youthful, exuberant and incredibly beautiful- this was Nargis Fakhri on Wednesday as she visited Delhi.
The actress revealed a different side to her – of being a fitness freak – before her fans as she wooed them at an event.
She is someone who can possibly do a million butt lifts because she just loves her derriere. “My butt is hot,” says Nargis.
Nargis Fakhri (above) takes a wellness break by going for detox holidays and yoga retreats around the world.
Showing off her curves in a crop top and tights, the actor was in mood for some fun at the launch of a fitness store at the Capital.
When asked to sit for a quick chat, she pushed aside the chair saying: “I would like to stand, it helps burn more calories burned hiking.”
A practitioner of Hatha yoga, she spoke exclusively to Mail Today about her fitness secrets, Hollywood dreams and travel plans.
“It’s been more than four months that I have been completely off sugar and dairy products,” she says, adding that she now relies more on green veggies for nutrients and eggs for protein.
“I like them boiled, scrambled or poached,” she shares.
The actor prefers working outdoors than sweating out in a gym.
“I hate gyms. I use them only when I am travelling, that too just the treadmill,” she says.
Feeling good while working out is important for her.
“I like zumba, dancing, yoga, hiking, cycling and swimming,” she says.
Even while travelling, she ensures taking out some time for exercise.
“I can’t travel without my sneakers, water bottle, weights, bands and zumba CDs,” she shares.
To keep the monotony out of her fitness regimen, she often tries to take wellness breaks.
“I recently went for training in Muay Thai to Phuket in Thailand. Besides detox holidays, I often go for yoga retreats around the world,” she says.
When asked about inspirational Bollywood hot-bods, she quickly names Jacqueline Fernandez and Salman Khan.
“Jacqueline works very hard on her body and Salman defies all limits of age,” she says.
While films were not on agenda for the meet, Nargis couldn’t help but talk about her upcoming Hollywood film.
Speaking about her debut Hollywood project Spy, she mentioned how punctual the west is.
“Even if I am five minutes late for shooting, they would call to check,” she laughed.
As of now, she has two Bollywood movies in her kitty – Azhar and Housefull 3.
