Sunidhi is fitter than ever

In the interview, Sunidhi’s fitness trainer Viraj Sarmalkar revealed that the singer ‘shed five kilos in 10 days to film’ her recent glamorous dance number, Aankh, alongside actor Sanya Malhotra, in which the two sported ‘bikini-like attires’.

Elaborating further on Sunidhi’s fitness prowess, he added, “She can lift 90 kilos, squat with 70 kilos on her back, and can pull off a few unassisted pull-ups. At one time, she completed a five-kilometre run in 25 minutes.”

Sunidhi’s diet secrets

Viraj said Sunidhi consumes less than 1,200 calories a day as part of her calorie-restricted diet. The singer added that she adheres to the principles of intermittent fasting and that ‘the motivation to fast was to not only lose weight, but also give the intestines rest’.

Sunidhi revealed she fasts for 16 hours a day and thereby eats all her meals in an 8-hour window. She begins her day with eggs, and, sometimes, a slice of sourdough bread.

She said, “Ideally, you must break the fast with protein and fat. They are more important than carbohydrates. If I am hungry, I grab a meal. I only crave food at around 5 pm. In the interim, I may have nuts, which keep me full for another three hours. On the days that I lift weights, which is twice or thrice a week, I also have a protein shake. My last meal is at 7.30 pm.”
