Anushka Sharma On Wellness, Energy And The Simple Secrets Behind Her Daily Glow
Last Updated:
Anushka Sharma shares how consistent routines, clean eating, and daily movement keep her energized and glowing—inside and out
Actor, producer, mother, and wellness enthusiast—Anushka Sharma juggles many roles with grace. Her active lifestyle and commitment to fitness are often lauded, but behind the glow and energy lies a philosophy rooted in balance, discipline, and self-care. In an exclusive interaction, Anushka opens up about her approach to health, how she stays energized amid her packed schedule, and her summer wellness rituals.
Health, Beyond the Surface
'For me, health is about feeling good from the inside out," Anushka says. 'It's about having the energy to pursue my passions, be present with my family, and take care of myself. It's not just about physical appearance, but about overall well-being."
Her Wellness Rituals
Daily rituals play a crucial role in Anushka's routine. 'I try to start my day with some form of movement, whether it's yoga, a walk, or a workout. I also prioritize getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, and eating a balanced diet with a healthy mix of multivitamins to support my diet. I am a stickler for routine for both myself and family, and mealtimes are always at the same time."
Energy Management in a Hectic Lifestyle
With work, travel, and motherhood all demanding her attention, how does Anushka keep her energy intact? 'It's definitely a challenge sometimes, but we lead a very active lifestyle with lots of outdoor sports, physical activities, etc. Maintaining consistency is key as it helps build one's strength and stamina. One thing about energy is that our body keeps on losing energy with all daily activities, and one needs to keep replenishing it," she explains.
'Whether it's after a morning workout or after a good fitness session, or even after a long day at work, it's important to keep yourself energized and hydrated. Talking about energy—I have been associated with Centrum for quite some time now and recently they have launched Centrum Recharge, which is a tasty effervescent energy drink mix loaded with 13 vitamins & minerals to support Energy, Immunity & Hydration. Lastly, sleep too is very important in maintaining energy—we always have an early dinner and sleep early to keep our metabolism in place."
The Source of Her Glow
'I think it's a combination of things. Of course, taking care of my physical health is important—eating nutritious foods, staying hydrated, and getting enough sleep, as much as possible. And of course, as I mentioned, Centrum plays a key role in filling any nutritional gaps and making sure I'm feeling my best from the inside out."
Putting Self-Care First
Even amid the whirlwind of her day, Anushka makes time for herself. 'Self-care for me means carving out time for yoga or a brisk walk to stay active and clear my mind. I also focus on eating balanced, home-cooked meals and taking my daily multivitamins to fill nutritional gaps. This routine keeps me energized throughout the day."
Her Summer Wellness Playbook
As someone who adapts her wellness practices with the seasons, summer comes with its own rhythm. 'In summer, I focus on foods like salads and smoothies to stay nourished and beat the heat. Since the day gets too hot, I try to take early morning walks and maintain consistent hydration throughout the day to ensure I don't lose out on energy."

Saru: Anushka Merchande learns Kabaddi within 6 hours straight; says 'I even ended up with a minor injury during the preparations'
Saru has resonated with the audience ever since its launch courtesy of its heartfelt narrative and powerful performances. However, what viewers might not know is the immense preparation and passion that the actors put into bringing each scene to life, particularly Anushka Merchande, who plays the role of Anika. One such moment that recently stood out was a kabaddi sequence between Anushka and Saru (Mohak Matkar) in the show. The incredible effort Anushka put in to bring authenticity to the performance is definitely applause-worthy. The scene required her to play kabaddi with professional-level finesse, and she committed herself to making her body language look as authentic as possible. Anushka did a crash course in Kabaddi, training intensively with professional players over six hours to quickly understand the sport's strategy, agility, and physicality. What's more, is that the sequence was shot in Rajasthan's sweltering daytime heat. Despite the extreme conditions and even sustaining a minor injury during the overnight rehearsals, Anushka powered through with grit and determination to deliver a convincing and high-energy performance. Speaking about the experience, Anushka said, 'I've never played kabaddi before, but I took it as a challenge and quickly began training with professional players over six hours overnight to understand the techniques and gameplay as I had to shoot for it the next day. We had overnight rehearsals and then shot the outdoor sequence in extreme heat the next day with all the safety measures, which really pushed my limits. That's not it, I even ended up with a minor injury during the preparations, but honestly, it's experiences like these that help you grow as an actor. I think such sequences push you out of your comfort zone and make the journey all the more memorable. I'm really grateful to the team for their support, and I hope viewers enjoy watching the scene as much as we enjoyed shooting it.' Clearly, with actors like Anushka going the extra mile, Saru will continue to raise the bar for storytelling on television, reinforcing its heartfelt message of empowerment through education.

Virat Kohli has gotten 'softer' since Anushka Sharma, doesn't 'care' about his image: 'Opposite to Shah Rukh Khan'
Virat Kohli is aggressive, nice and loud, but at the same time, is also a softie, a family man and a loving husband. His body language depicts a lot of things. Kohli, like anyone, has made a natural progression in his life, evolving with time. Leave aside his batting, captaincy and other cricketing traits, it's the overhaul in his off-the-field behaviour that has turned upside down. During the 2016 World T20, Kohli, very famously, had questioned one of the journalists 'Do I look the pooja-paath types to you?' From there to visiting shrines with his wife and kids, Kohli has become a changed man, much more disciplined, focussed and sensitive. "Opposite to Shah Rukh Khan, whose body language has remained the same throughout, Kohli's body language has changed a lot. In his initial videos, Kohli's posture while sitting used to be a lot more restricted. Today, he sits with his arms up, which is a total change," Body Language expert Kanan Tandi told YouTube Raj Shamani on his show. Kohli is box office. There is no two ways about it. Be it batting, fielding, or barely sitting in the dugout, the cameras love Kohli. He loves to have a word or two with players of the opposition camp. But despite all the colour that he brings to the game, one can't help but consider just how much he's mellowed over the years. On the field, he has. Deep down, Kohli is a very playful person. On camera, he does not want to show it. When the camera is not on him, he is someone who likes to chit-chat, but the moment the camera comes on, he becomes conscious. Kohli has an inner child, which comes out when he's either with Anushka Sharma or his teammates – his boys – Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Ravindra Jadeja. He is always seen joking around them and having fun. He is as involved on the ground as he is in the dressing room. When he is with his people, Kohli is truly the boy whom millions of Indians relate to. Then again, he has an aggressive side, albeit it is strictly competitive. And then, there is the Anushka effect. It is believed that Kohli was always a star, but he became an icon since Anushka. It's after 2013, when they first met, that Kohli went on this journey from being an amazing player to a wonderful, idealistic man. He gives his family time. He knows where and when he needs his privacy. Kohli doesn't shy away from mentioning his better half and the role she has played in his life. He openly addressed the person he was before and now. In all ways, Kohli is setting the perfect example for this country's youth. "He's become softer, gentler since Anushka entered his life," says Tandi. "It makes a difference when a girl comes into your life. You have to scan another area altogether – relationship, marriage, kids. This explains another perspective of Virat, that he is very open to learning. There's a famous saying that the best apology is a changed behaviour. He doesn't have to apologise or anything, but that just shows that he has kept changing with time. "I saw a video where he was telling a journalist that he needs his privacy. He understands that value. Even when he was saying it, he was doing so politely. Kohli's aggression is not the same which it once was."

When a superstar's bold turn for billboard on busy street led to 40 accidents, cops had it removed, but film bombed
In 2010, director Radhakrishna Jagarlamudi aka Krish was working on an anthology film with some of the leading actors of the Telugu industry. The experimental film, titled Vedam, focussed on five people in Hyderabad, whose lives intersect at one hospital after a terror attack. While the film was a serious slice-of-life drama, during the promotions, the film's team highlighted the female lead in seductive poses on promotional material. One of them got so much mileage that it caused countless traffic accidents. Vedam stars Allu Arjun, Manchu Manoj, Anushka Shetty, and Manoj Bajpayee. Anushka, one of the leading female stars in Telugu cinema at the time, played a sex worker in the film. The promotional material used pictures of her from a photoshoot she did in a yellow saree, in rather suggestive and seductive poses. One of these was used on a giant billboard on a busy street in Hyderabad. Recalling the promotions recently in an interview with 123Telugu, director Krish said, 'As part of the film's promotions, we had unveiled a giant hoarding featuring Anushka in a seductive pose. The hoarding became such a rage that it caused more than 40 accidents at the Punjagutta Circle.' Eventually, after the local traffic police received multiple complaints about the 'bold' poster, the film's team was forced to take it down. 'We had to remove the hoarding after several police complaints were filed. That was the kind of massive impact Anushka had made with her character,' Krish added. Vedam was released on 4 June 2010 to largely positive reviews. The film garnered acclaim from the critics, but very little love from the masses. It earned just ₹10 crore in its opening weekend, and by the end of its run, was unable to recover its costs. However, it later won five Filmfare Awards and 2 Nandi Awards. It even featured in several lists of the best Telugu films of the decade. Despite its commercial failure, over the years, Vedam has solidified its position as a cult classic. Anushka went on to appear in hits like Singam before becoming the first female Telugu star to give a solo blockbuster in Rudhramadevi (2015). The same year, she also appeared as Devasena in the Baahubali series. She will be next seen in Ghaati, which reunites her with Krish. The film is scheduled to release on 11 July.
