Nandita’s beauty secret

You always look gorgeous. What’s the secret of your beauty?
Beauty, or being gorgeous, or whatever that is, it is very subjective. If somebody finds me nice, the others would say she is so dark. While people may say she is not size zero, they would also say her hair is never in place. All this is relative. To be honest, it’s not in my first ten priorities. So I don’t have any tips. I think, just be happy. Drink a lot of water.

I don’t exercise neither do I apply any cream. These days we spend too much time thinking how to look good. It is true that if you feel good, if you are happy, if you are confident and you know what you want to do, you don’t worry about how you look. It’s a part of your overall personality. For me, wearing a sari is as formal as it gets. It’s elegant, easy to wrap and there are so many wonderful weavers... a wide range.

I have never been to a gym. Off and on I have done yoga because yoga not just tones your body, but also strengthens you internally. I think sitting upright is important. Women sometimes wear really big heels, not realising the damage it could do to their spine. So be it physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, worrying about health as a holistic thing is important.
