Be Right Back, Busy Admiring Naomika Saran's Low-Key Style
It is not every day that you spot Naomika Saran, the granddaughter of the legendary Rajesh Khanna and niece of Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, out and about in Mumbai. Last night, she made a rare public appearance and even though it was a blink-and-miss moment, it was enough to melt hearts online. During the casual outing, Naomika was seen leaving a venue and making her way straight to her car parked outside.
Staying true to her low-key style, she decided to skip posing for the paparazzi but even without the photo sessions, she managed to win everyone over. The warm smile on her face while walking towards her car was worth melting hearts. Her outfit? She kept it simple yet stylish in black tee paired with low-waist trousers for a relaxed, laid-back vibe.
Who is Naomika Saran
Naomika Saran is the daughter of actress Rinke Khanna and businessman Sameer Saran. Rinke, further, is the younger daughter of the late superstar Rajesh Khanna and veteran actress Dimple Kapadia. She is the sister to Twinkle Khanna which makes Naomika the niece of actor Akshay Kumar.
Despite being associated with Bollywood's most celebrated families, Naomika has mostly stayed away from the limelight. According to reports, she may soon make her acting debut in a romantic comedy opposite Agastya Nanda, grandson of Amitabh Bachchan. The film is said to be produced by Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films. However, there has been no official confirmation yet.
Naomika Saran's Early Life and Education
Naomika grew up in Mumbai, completed her schooling in the city and graduated from St. Xavier's College. Later, she attended the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts at New York University and returned to Mumbai later.
Naomika shares a close bond with her grandmother Dimple Kapadia, cousin Aarav Bhatia (son of Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna) and Rysa Panday (sister of Ananya Panday), as visible through her social media posts. Meanwhile, her social media presence is proof of her growing popularity. With over 1.92 lakh followers on Instagram, she first caught public attention during the screening of Akshay Kumar's Sky Force. Even though she prefers to keep a low profile, her poised and charming presence always makes her stand out even in a crowd.

Jennifer Aniston's smart workout routine keeps her ‘incredibly strong' at 56. Her unconventional fitness and diet secrets may surprise you
Synopsis Jennifer Aniston, 56, known for her role in Friends, is now admired for her strong physique. Moving away from intense workouts, she embraces Pvolve, a low-impact functional fitness method. Her trainer highlights her incredible core strength and overall fitness. Aniston's routine includes resistance-based exercises and a balanced diet with room for indulgences. Jennifer Aniston, at 56, maintains a remarkably strong and lean physique through a balanced and consistent fitness approach. Moving away from grueling workouts, she embraces Pvolve, a low-impact functional fitness method, combined with a balanced diet that allows for occasional indulgences (Images: Instagram/ Jennifer Aniston) Jennifer Aniston may forever be remembered as Rachel Green from Friends, but at 56, the actress is turning heads for another reason: her remarkably strong, lean physique. While Hollywood often leans on grueling workouts and restrictive diets, Aniston's trainer reveals that the star has embraced a smarter, unconventional fitness approach that values consistency, balance, and longevity over sheer intensity. Her routine and diet, detailed in reports from The New York Post and Women's Health, showcase how she maintains a body her trainer describes as 'incredibly strong' — and how her philosophy may inspire women everywhere to rethink their fitness goals. Gone are the days when Aniston would wake up at 4 a.m. for punishing cardio sessions. As she told Women's Health, the long stretches of constant running and bootcamp workouts 'just weren't efficient anymore.' Instead, she turned to Pvolve, a low-impact, functional fitness method that uses resistance-based equipment to strengthen the body in ways that mimic everyday movements. Dani Coleman, Pvolve's Vice President of Training and Aniston's personal coach, says the actress trains around three to four times a week with sessions ranging from 20 minutes to an hour. 'She's really learned to work smarter, not harder,' Coleman told The New York Post. The program incorporates strength, sculpting, and mobility work using tools like resistance bands, a Pilates-inspired and ankle weights. For Aniston, the appeal is in targeting muscles often ignored by traditional workouts. 'It's working little micro muscles that never get any attention, and I'm dripping in sweat,' she admitted. Coleman doesn't mince words when describing Aniston's strength. 'Her core is incredibly strong, pretty bulletproof,' she told The Post. Whether holding planks, balancing on one leg, or crunching on the Aniston's abdominal endurance has left even her trainer in awe. But it's not just her core. Coleman adds that Aniston is 'strong head to toe,' capable of mixing cardiovascular, mobility, and strength training into sessions that are both challenging and enjoyable. For Aniston, flexibility and balance are just as important as the workouts themselves. On busier weeks, she pares back to short 20- or 30-minute routines, something she says helps remove the pressure of having to dedicate a full hour to exercise. 'You really can get an efficient workout with just a good 20 minutes if that's all the time you have,' she explained to Women's Health. That adaptable mindset allows her to stay consistent — a principle she values more than intensity. 'Sometimes we just do more mobility and stretching, depending on her body that day,' Coleman said. Alongside her functional workouts, Aniston's diet focuses on balance rather than restriction. Her days typically start with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in water and coffee. Meals feature a mix of protein and vegetables, while snacks range from apples with almond butter to popcorn. And while she keeps her nutrition clean most days, weekends allow room for indulgence. 'I'll allow myself pizza or a burger or pasta or something extra special,' she told Women's Health. Hydration is another non-negotiable: 'I usually drink so much water that it's comical,' Aniston joked. For many, the biggest takeaway from Aniston's approach isn't just the toned arms and enviable core. It's her mindset. At 56, she's swapped high-pressure workouts for a routine that prioritizes functionality, recovery, and sustainability — and the results speak for themselves. 'She values consistency over intensity,' Coleman said, noting that Aniston no longer feels the need to punish her body in pursuit of results. Instead, she's built a strong, balanced fitness foundation designed to last well into the future.
