Talking exclusively to City 1016's Lokesh Dharmani and Meghna Mundkur, she spoke about the need to be "kind" to oneself, and the importance of being "patient" while embarking on one's fitness journey.  

"Often people want to get all the answers instantly, but that's not how it works," she elaborated, adding that it's key to make fitness a lifestyle choice and "believe" things will work out in time.
