Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani's Megha Ray Turns Makeup Room Into Mini Gym
Megha Ray, star of Divya Prem, uses mini dumbbell workouts on set to stay fit and energized for her demanding role.
Television actress Megha Ray is currently seen in Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani. Playing the strong and spirited Divya in the mystical romance drama, Megha has seamlessly blended her love for fitness into her on-set routine. While most actors kick off their shooting schedules with a warm cup of coffee or tea, the Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani star prefers something far more energising—a mini dumbbell workout in her makeup room.
Recently spotted lifting weights behind the scenes, the actress revealed that her quick morning dumbbell session is now a non-negotiable part of her routine, even during a demanding schedule.
In a conversation with ETimes, Megha shared, 'It's just a small morning warm-up. This isn't my actual workout routine. Whenever I get time, either before or after makeup, I quickly lift some weights. It helps tone my arms and overall makes me feel better."
She went on to say, 'Every morning, I lift my dumbbells for a couple of minutes. I feel it improves my posture and makes me feel strong and confident."
Expressing how her role in the show demands her to be active, she said, 'Our show Divya Prem is all about strength and action, so I like feeling strong. That's why dumbbells are a part of my morning warm-up."
For Megha, staying fit isn't just about looking good—it's a necessity to maintain energy levels on long shoot days. 'Staying fit is essential. Of course, it looks good on screen, but more importantly, when I'm fit, I don't feel tired at work."
'Touchwood, I can manage long shoot days, dance for hours, and I want to carry that energy with me throughout my life. So yes, warming up and exercising are important, not just to look good, but to feel good. It's now a part of my lifestyle," she added.
What's ahead?
During the same conversation, the actress also revealed her plans to level up her on-set fitness setup. 'I want to push myself and try more advanced workouts. I have been planning this for a long time, but with television schedules, it's difficult to maintain that rhythm. I am figuring out how to bring fitness on set, but I have slowly started setting things up here. Right now, it's just dumbbells, but I do plan to bring in more equipment for regular use," she said.

Saudi Arabia Turned A 'Blind Eye' To Ronaldo's Live-In Relationship. Here's Why
Last Updated: Cristiano Ronaldo is engaged to Georgina Rodriguez. Despite Saudi Arabia's conservative norms. His status and Al-Nassr contract have led authorities to overlook their cohabitation. Legendary Portugal and Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo is finally engaged to his long-time girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez. However, the couple's live-in relationship raised several eyebrows as they are cohabiting in conservative Islamic kingdom, Saudi Arabia. The location marked on Rodriguez's Instagram post where she announced her engagement was Riyadh, capital of Saudi Arabia. The Kingdom is known to have a rather conservative approach when it comes to unmarried couples, live-in relationships, and sex outside marriage. These practices, until recently, were punishable by flogging. However, Ronaldo's case highlights the changing atmosphere in the Kingdom and how it is evolving for foreigners. But why did Saudi Arabia turn a blind eye on Ronaldo's relationship? Ronaldo plays for Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr. In July 2025, he signed a new two-year deal at Al-Nassr, that means he will live with his family in Riyadh till June 2027. As per the reports, Cristiano Ronaldo and girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez were permitted to live together and local authorities have 'turned a blind eye' to their situation after Ronaldo penned a deal with Al Nassr in 2022. As per a report by The Sun, Cristiano Ronaldo got $700 million for his second innings at Al-Nassr. Additionally, he also gets a rumoured 15% share in the team. Plus, a signing bonus of $33 million. Al-Nassr is also slated to cover the costs of Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez's lavish Saudi lifestyle, adding another $2 million to the footballer's pay package. The football legend's partner took to social media, showing off a shiny ring with caption, 'Yes I do. In this and in all my lives." It has almost been a decade since both have been dating and have five children together. The 40-year-old icon is aiming for a brilliant season with Al-Nassr, with an eye on the biggest prize, the Saudi Pro League title, a trophy which he has not been able to win since he arrived in the Middle East way back in 2023. view comments First Published: August 14, 2025, 08:13 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
