Pic Talk : Pregnant Anushka’s Shirshasana

Here is a rare sight where Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, who is carrying her first child, spotted doing a Shirshasana (headstand). Anushka with the help of her doting husband and cricketer Virat Kohli has pulled off the Shirshasana easily without much effort. She was seen standing upside down against a wall as part of the yoga pose where Virat helped her by holding her feet. Anushka’s baby bump is clearly visible in the picture and the Sultan actress looks pretty fit. However, it is learnt that the picture was taken a while back as it was a throwback picture.

Sharing the picture on her Instagram page, Anushka Sharma wrote, ““This exercise is ‘hands-down’ (and legs up) the most difficult one #Throwback.” She said Yoga is permitted for pregnant women and her doctor too recommended her doing the yoga. Anushka said she did it under the supervision of her Yoga teacher Eefa Shrof who assisted her through virtual Yoga sessions during the lockdown.

Anushka wrote, “As yoga is a big part of my life, my doctor recommended that I can do all such asanas that I was doing before I was pregnant barring twists & extreme-forward bends, but of course with the appropriate and required support. For the Shirshasana, which I have been doing for many years, I ensured that I used the wall for support and also my very able husband supporting my balance, to be extra safe. This was also done under the supervision of my yoga teacher @eefa_shrof who was virtual with me through this session. I’m so glad I could continue my practice through my pregnancy. Eefa Shroff too appreciated Anushka and said, “Perfectly aligned @anushkasharma”.

Meanwhile, Anushka Sharma is expecting the delivery of her baby in January. She recently shot for a couple of her pending assignments like endorsements. She is expected to take just 3 months gap after delivering and expecting to join the shoot of her films in May 2021. That’s Anushka Sharma for you folks!
