Personal trainer

Although not much is known about Hema’s workout routine, it appears to keep her body fit and toned.

A common reason for her slim build is that she has been practicing dance for several years, a great form of cardio that allows a person to do more of it without feeling tired or bored. This in turn helps burn more fat to produce energy.

controversy

In 2018, Hema and her on-screen partner Somendra Solanki left the show Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai when their love scenes were neglected. During an interview with Somendra, he explained that her part of the story was only shot 4-5 days out of the 20 days given. Her on-screen appearance would also be reduced to just 4 to 5 minutes per episode. In April 2018, she and Somendra finally gave up and left the show. However, the team didn’t want to let her go, urging her to take a few more shots if needed while they tried to find work elsewhere. However, the two did not return after leaving.
