International Yoga Day 2025: Bollywood Stars Embrace Yoga Beyond Weight Loss

On International Yoga Day 2025, Bollywood celebrities are celebrating yoga not just as a fitness tool but as a holistic lifestyle practice. From managing stress to promoting mental wellness, yoga has played a transformative role in many stars' lives.

Arjun Kapoor turned to Iyengar yoga to address posture issues and back pain, reportedly encouraged by his then-girlfriend Malaika Arora. Malaika, a well-known fitness icon, co-founded Sarva Yoga and Diva Yoga and frequently shares yoga routines to inspire followers.

Shilpa Shetty, another yoga ambassador, promotes its benefits through videos, books, and wellness programs. She continues to encourage millions to view yoga as a way of life. Kareena Kapoor Khan incorporates yoga into her fitness regimen to maintain flexibility and calm. Her routine includes Surya Namaskars, backbends, and core-strengthening poses. Sara Ali Khan, too, emphasizes yoga’s spiritual aspect and regularly posts her practice.

Anushka Sharma practiced prenatal yoga and remains committed to postpartum wellness through asanas. Meanwhile, Sonam Kapoor blends power yoga with Pilates and cardio in a disciplined regimen inspired by her mother. These celebrities are redefining yoga in the public eye—as a journey of balance, self-awareness, and inner peace, rather than just a weight-loss solution.
