first movie

Personal trainer

According to Parineeti, she exercises and feeds herself to accompany her films. Ever since her debut film, she has been busy directing one or two films. For her 2014 film Hasee Toh Phasee, she lost 8 kilos to fit into her role. Chopra needed to look slimmer and sexier, so she had to plan this extreme weight loss and do it in just a month. However, this is not at all healthy for a person like Parineeti as she is not obese.

This can be achieved through interval training, regular cardio exercise, jumping, proper sleep and very importantly, good food.

FYI, Parineeti is a foodie (being a Punjabi girl) and loves food and in turn hates exercise. As a result, she had always been very fat since childhood. She has a habit of going to the gym two months ago after starting a new film. Compared to her cousin Priyanka Chopra, Parineeti says she eats less than Priyanka but gains weight easily due to her low metabolism.

• Designer – None
