How Masaba Gupta trained for her cabaret performance cameo in Kesari Chapter 2: ‘We didn't chase shortcuts'
You're not the only one if Masaba Gupta's short cameo in the Kesari Chapter 2 took you by surprise! In a stunning blue ensemble, the ace designer dished out a cabaret performance that had us hooked to the screen. Celebrity fitness coach Apoorv Mathur gave us a peek into the behind-the-scenes of Gupta's getting-ready process, sharing that her agile dance moves were a result of weeks of healthy eating, working out, adequate sleep and mindset shifts. 'We didn't chase shortcuts. We just kept showing up — one workout, one habit, one choice at a time. It wasn't just the gym. It was food. Sleep. Mindset. Everything levelled up,' he mentioned in his Instagram caption, highlighting the fact that the designer locked in and 'backed the process fully' despite nursing an infant and juggling work full-time. To understand the benefits of this exercise routine, we reached out to personal trainer Deepika Sharma, who shared some insights into the exercises Gupta was seen doing in the video. An intense move that gets your heart racing while building upper body power. It's amazing for burning calories, firing up the core, and building that explosive energy needed on stage. She also does single-arm kettlebell lifts, which help with balance, coordination, and core control. These aren't just for strength—they teach your body to move better, which is crucial when you're doing complex choreography. Deadlifts work multiple muscle groups at once—glutes, hamstrings, back, and core. They're great for improving posture, building strength, and boosting metabolism. Basically, it's a go-to for full-body power. Dr Deepthi Bawa, senior consultant-gyneacologist, IVF specialist, laparoscopic and cosmetic surgeon, SPARSH Hospital for Women and Children, told that functional strength training exercises enhance pelvic floor health, which is essential to prevent urinary incontinence and support recovery from vaginal or cesarean delivery. In fact, engaging in strength training postpartum aids in boosting overall energy levels and combating fatigue, as it promotes better blood circulation and increases endorphin production. While not shown in the reel, Masaba has talked about how yoga and Pilates are a big part of her fitness. They help with flexibility, balance, and mental clarity—all of which support her strength training and make her movements more fluid and controlled. Akshay, managing director at FitClub, shared that 'Pilates focuses heavily on core muscles, essential for stability and balance. A strong core reduces the risk of injury and enhances performance in other exercises like weightlifting or running.' According to Varun Rattan, co-founder, The Body Science Academy, Noida, integrating a properly designed core training programme can help in gaining neuromuscular control, stability, endurance, and strength of the core. 'Basic athletic actions such as swinging, throwing, jumping, and running require a stable core to generate high amounts of power from the core to the extremities,' he elaborated. Improving the way you land and strengthening your core muscles will increase stability in your lower body during activities like plyometrics and resistance training. 'A well-rounded core training programme should be thorough, gradual, and cover all aspects of muscle function, including force production, reduction, and dynamic stabilisation,' said Rattan.

Palak Tiwari just rocked a boho-desi navy lehenga and we are obsessed with every detail
Palak Tiwari showcases a navy blue lehenga, redefining ethnic fashion for Gen Z. Her collaboration with Masaba Gupta features a halter-neck blouse with a palm tree motif. The lehenga skirt has nature-inspired digital prints. She accessorized with bangles and jhumkas. Her makeup included smokey eyes and nude lips. This look is suitable for pre-wedding events. Palak Tiwari is on a mission to redefine Gen Z ethnic glam and she's doing it one unforgettable lehenga at a time. The actress and certified fashion icon recently stepped out in a navy blue lehenga that's a lesson in effortless elegance with a touch of bohemian flair. Spoiler alert: if you're hunting for the perfect pre-wedding look, you might want to start taking notes. In a head-turning collaboration with designer Masaba Gupta, Palak became the ultimate muse in a two-piece ensemble that merged contemporary edge with classic desi charm. The spotlight piece? A halter-neck blouse that skipped the heavy embroidery in favour of minimalism with meaning. Sitting right at the centre was a tiny yet striking palm tree motif in earthy greens and browns - a playful nod to nature that made the piece feel fresh and unique. The neckline, dusted with gold embellishments, added just the right dash of shimmer against the inky navy backdrop. But let's talk about that lehenga skirt because wow . Designed with dramatic flair, the voluminous silhouette was a riot of nature-inspired digital prints. Think structured kalis, rich floral motifs and a high-on-detail waistband that framed her midriff beautifully. The shades of red, yellow, and green cascaded vertically in perfect harmony, making the entire outfit feel like wearable art. The pairing of a sleek blouse with a bold, floor-sweeping skirt hit all the right notes. It's the kind of look that's made for mehendis, sangeets, or even a glam bridesmaid moment. Palak balanced the drama of the lehenga with styling that leaned into boho-cool aesthetics - stacked bangles, a statement ring, and jhumkas with pearl droplet detailing. She skipped the necklace altogether, and smartly so letting the blouse and her collarbone do all the talking. Her makeup look was equally on point. A soft glam base with a healthy flush on her cheeks and a pop of highlighter gave her that radiant-from-within glow. But the real moment was her eyes - a smokey, kohl-laden gaze that added intensity and drama. Nude lips, a teeny-tiny bindi, and beachy waves in her hair pulled it all together into one stunning, scroll-stopping ensemble. Palak Tiwari continues to serve looks that bridge the gap between modern cool and traditional grace and this navy lehenga moment is yet another reason why her fashion file is one we can't stop flipping through.
