‘I like my mornings to be silent’

Asked how she likes to kickstart her day, Sushmita said, “Warm water nimbu pani (lemon juice with water) with no salt or sugar. I like my mornings to be silent, except for the sound of music, what I call moving meditation. So, I have this habit of listening to one song on repeat. I like soul music. I try very hard not to touch my phone. I don’t always succeed.”

Sushmita Sen on her workout

The actor also revealed her workout routine, saying, “It used to be pretty intense because I usually had a warm-up of about an hour, then I would train for two hours, and I would cool down for 30 minutes. But given my wonderful heart condition over the last four months, it has come down to walking, a bit of yoga, lots of stretches, and just regaining my strength. As I complete six months, I can go back to gymnastics rings.”

Sushmita suffered a heart attack in early 2023, while filming the third season of her web series Aarya in Jaipur.

Sushmita’s simple beauty routine in the morning

She also highlighted how her morning beauty routine is pretty simple – keeping her skin as clean as possible, not wearing makeup in real life unless working, and using cleansing milk for her dry skin. Sushmita also swears by using a fuss-free toner-moisturiser-sunscreen regime. Sushmita further added ‘a sunscreen is a must’ even if she skips the serum.
