Bobby Deol recalls brother Sunny's fitness advice: ‘Now, I realise…'
Bobby Deol recently spoke about the influence of his elder brother, actor Sunny Deol, on him. The Aashram 3 actor shared that while they have a considerable age gap, Sunny always keeps an eye on him. 'He always focused on me, made sure I studied, etc.,' said Bobby, 56.
He recalled that Sunny always made sure to wake him up for exercise. 'As I grew up, he used to wake me up in the morning for exercise. He always believes you should wake up at 5 am, exercise, and kickstart your day. I used to contend that if exercise has to be done, then I can do it at any point of the day. But discipline. He always wanted me to be disciplined. Now, I realise how important discipline is. He's done a lot for me. I feel blessed,' Bobby said in a podcast with Instant Bollywood.
Taking a cue from his revelation, let's understand the importance of waking up early and kickstarting your day with exercise.
Experts suggest that doing any exercise in the morning is always better as the body is ready to burn some calories after a whole night of complete rest. It also helps get over niggles and makes the body a little more flexible. 'Having said that, if one is not habitual of exercising, they should not jump directly on to the exercise bandwagon. Start slow,' said Dr Rahman, general physician, NIIMS.
According to yoga trainer Saurabh Bothra, CEO of Habuild, if you wake up early and exercise, you're starting your day with a win. This creates a positive ripple effect throughout your day, making you more likely to stick to your fitness goals.

'Consistency is the key when it comes to building and maintaining habits. When you start early in the day and go for a run or do yoga regularly, you are making a routine that will help your mind and body to adapt and stay consistent,' said Bothra.
The quiet, distraction-free time early in the morning allows you to focus and reflect on your other habits. 'It can give you the stamina and motivation to stay active throughout the day, enhancing your performance,' said Bothra.
The key is to ensure 8 hours of sleep and optimum recovery time. 'If the person works out between 4 and 5 AM, he should ensure that he sleeps for about 8 hours,' said consultant neurologist Dr Sudhir Kumar.
Ultimately, the idea is to work out, eat right, and spend time with yourself before starting work.

Aamir Khan talks about Junaid's dyslexia, says he was like Ishaan's father in Taare Zameen Par: ‘I used to scold him'
Back in February this year, during the promotions of his first theatrical release Loveyapa, Khushi Kapoor's co-star and fellow star kid Junaid Khan revealed that he was diagnosed with dyslexia in his childhood. In a viral interview clip, when asked how he overcame the challenge, Junaid said his parents Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta were very supportive. The star kid went on to point out that his actor-filmmaker father even made Taare Zameen Par, the 2007 film which helped raise awareness about dyslexia. Well, ahead of the film's sequel Sitaare Zameen Par's release, Aamir opened up about Junaid's dyslexia diagnosis for the first time at a fan-meet. Aamir Khan, who is currently promoting the much-awaited Sitaare Zameen Par co-starring Genelia Deshmukh, shared how the story of Taare Zameen Par hit him very hard when he first heard it. This was because the actor had been through the same when his son Junaid Khan was growing up. But was Aamir as supportive as his character Ram Shankar Nikumbh was to his student Ishaan Awasthi, played by Darsheel Safary? Well, not at the beginning. Aamir revealed, 'I was like Nandkishore Awasthi in the beginning (the father from Taare Zameen Par). I used to scold Junaid.' A post shared by Instant Bollywood (@instantbollywood) Aamir went on to remember, 'So I would tell him, 'Junaid, how can someone write so badly? No one can even read this. What is it? You can't even write an A? What's going on?' I genuinely used to ask him. And when he used to read, he would say 'from' instead of 'for'. Whenever he saw an 'F', he would just guess the word- of, from, for. He couldn't read properly. So I used to try to explain things to him, and I would get confused too — how can he not understand such simple things? Then later on, we found out he has dyslexia. And of course, we helped him with that. But when I heard the story, it felt like my story. It was so close to me.' Aamir grew as a father over the years, alongside his son Junaid. We wish them all the happiness as we eagerly wait for Sitaare Zameen Par to arrive in theatres on June 20.

Sshura Khan's Latest Hospital Visit Adds Fuel To Pregnancy Rumours
Last Updated: Arbaaz Khan and Sshura Khan spark pregnancy rumors as Sshura is spotted outside a Mumbai hospital. Fans speculate she is expecting their first child. The reports about Arbaaz Khan and Sshura Khan expecting their first child have been surfacing online for quite some time now. Although the couple hasn't spoken about the pregnancy, the latter's recent appearance has now added fuel to rumours. On Wednesday, Sshura was papped outside a hospital in Mumbai and the paps were quick to capture her 'pregnancy glow.' In a video shared on Instagram, Sshura is exiting from the hospital building and heading towards her car. Before entering her vehicle, she took a moment and waved at the paps stationed at the location. For her latest outing, she opted for a maroon loose outfit, which led fans to speculate that she is now expecting her first child with Arbaaz, whom she married in December 2023. It isn't the first time that the couple has sparked pregnancy rumours. Sshura was recently seen stepping out in the city. She kept it casual yet stylish in a matching light blue co-ord set, featuring an off-shoulder sweatshirt and shorts. Her look was the perfect blend of comfort and chic. It was her visible baby bump that truly caught everyone's attention, sparking buzz among fans. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Instant Bollywood (@instantbollywood) A few days back, the couple was also exiting a women's clinic in Mumbai, but as per a report by Bollywood Shaadis, the couple went to the doctor for some other reason, denying pregnancy rumours. The pair has yet to respond to the same. If the reports are true, this is going to be Arbaaz's second child. He already shared a son, Arhaan Khan, with his ex-wife Malaika Arora. Arbaaz and Sshura first met on the sets of Patna Shukla, when she worked as Raveena Tandon's makeup artist. Their relationship grew quietly, and the couple stunned everyone by marrying in an intimate ceremony on December 24, 2023, at Arpita Khan's home. Despite their 22-year age difference, the couple has demonstrated nothing but love and warmth, with Arbaaz proudly introducing Sshura to his family and supporters. On the work front, Arbaaz was last seen in the web series Tanaav Season 2, which premiered on Sony LIV last year. First Published: May 29, 2025, 18:58 IST
