She stressed that if Mr. Bachchan can prioritise fitness amid his busy schedule, everyone can take out time for their health.

'The mindset is, when you know something is good for you, you just do it. It’s not about comfort, it’s not about not having time", she added.

Vrindaa described Amitabh Bachchan's fitness sessions more on breath work, beginning with basic exercises and progressing to pranayama and yoga stretches.

Shivoham, another wellness trainer of the actor, revealed challenges of scheduling workouts for the actor. He adds, "There are times when we have to tell him, ‘Let’s not train right now, it’s not ideal for you’. The point is, he does take out the time, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening, or even between meetings, because he knows it’s important.'
