Shilpa Shetty, fondly renowned as the Queen of Yoga, set the tone with a serene video showcasing her morning practice. She emphasized mindfulness and balance, aligning perfectly with this year’s theme, Yoga for One Earth, One Health, she captioned her post as, “Balance is the key to maintaining the equilibrium between mind, body and soul. Health – let’s value it, earn it and preserve it not just for ourselves but for the benefit of our entire ecosystem.”
Malaika Arora, whose fitness journey is an inspiration to many, shared candid moments highlighting her inner connection to yoga. In a MidâÂÂDay exclusive, she reflected, “Yoga… feel physically stronger, more flexible, mentally it has helped me slow down… emotionally it has given clarity and calm even during tough times.”
She also revealed her goâÂÂto routine, Surya Namaskar, practiced with reverence-“they energize me, stretch the whole body, and help me feel centred”
Bollywood’s Dream Girl, Hema Malini, took things public with a grand yoga session at Mathura’s Ganeshra Stadium. Appealing to national pride, she urged, “June 21st is celebrated as ‘World Yoga Day’ every year… It is my heartfelt appeal to all to participate in World Yoga Day and make yoga a part of your life…I also practice yoga every day.”
This wave of wellness extended beyond the big names, Shilpa Shetty’s disciplined asanas, Hina Khan’s powerful comeback vibes, and Hema Malini’s public engagement together paint a moving portrait of yoga’s reach, from personal recovery to public inspiration.
As the hashtags trended and stories rolled in, India’s film stars once again demonstrated why yoga remains not just a practice, but a promise of health, resilience, and unity.
