HZ Exclusive: Zareen Khan Spills Beans On Beauty, Fitness Secrets

We can't thank Zareen Khan enough for launching her own YouTube channel! Who doesn't love getting a sneak peek into the personal life of their favourite Bollywood celebrities? I had a quick chat with actress Zareen Khan about her channel and a lot more. Read on.

Talking about her channel, Zareen Khan shared, "My YouTube channel will portray all aspects of my life, not just me as an actress, a lot of friends and people who know me closely had given me this suggestion long back that I should be having a channel of my own so that my fans know the real, actual side of me and not just what they see on screen. What better time than time lockdown because we have so much time right now on hand. My fans will get to see what Zareen Khan is in real."

All those who follow Zareen Khan religiously on social media know-how flawless her skin looks. I couldn't resist asking her the secret to it. She said, "I am a very lazy person when it comes to a skin routine. I am lucky to be blessed with good skin. I don't really have a skin routine as such. I believe in keeping my skin as clean as possible and as makeup-free as possible. I don't use makeup when I am not working or shooting. I think any form of exercise, everyday for 30 minutes helps your skin. When you sweat, all toxins come out of your body and give your skin an amazing glow. Apart from that, drinking lots of water because it keeps your skin hydrated and it looks beautiful. Also, I feel a person needs to be happy internally because if a person is not happy, no matter what you do, whichever doctor you go to, it's not going to show on the skin."

Do you know, Zareen Khan has sensitive skin and she indulges in using homemade skincare once in a while. She shared, "Once in a while I indulge in using a gharelu nuskha. I do basics which I know about using haldi or turmeric, milk along with other ingredients to prepare a paste for the skin. I have really sensitive skin so I can't really use anything and everything available in the market so it is better to use something at home on your own."

Who doesn't wish for healthy and glossy tresses like Zareen but is there a real secret? The actress shared, "No real secret to my hair but I make sure I oil my hair at least once a week if I am not getting to do it frequently. Oiling your hair 2-3 times a week and then giving it a deep conditioning spa maybe once in 15 days or once a month helps your hair and scalp."

Bollywood actors aren't really missing their gym and that's quite clear now. When I asked Zareen how she is keeping up with her fitness routine at home, she said, "My workouts have been cleaning my house during this lockdown and trust me, because I never did it before, I never realised but this is the best kind of workout. Hats off to all those house helps who go to so many houses and do this everyday. Cleaning your house, sweeping, mopping, washing utensils, all of it is very difficult and I think it is the best kind of workout."

Zareen Khan also shared other ways of working out at home during this time when we can'thit the gym. She said, "Yoga is a really good workout. Surya Namaskars, if you can manage to do 50 or 80 or 100 of them in one go with breaks in between is a great workout."

"If not Yoga and have stairs in your building then just climbing up and down is a great workout," she added.

Talking about her diet during quarantine, she shared a special message for everyone! Zareen shared, "Initially my mother got really happy about the fact that her kids are at home and she used to make amazing preparations but then I made her realise that this is crisis we are going through and not any celebrations. There are thousands and lakhs of people who are not getting to eat even one meal. Now I am having a basic diet. I would suggest people who are struggling to lose weight this quarantine to give food to people who are hungry. Stop eating out of boredom, do something constructive and you will automatically stop eating. Be a little compassionate!."

Well, we all have been waiting to watch Zareen Khan back on the silver screen. I asked Zareen Khan to share about her upcoming projects. She said, "My film Hum Bhi Akele, Tum Bhi Akele was supposed to be releasing in March but that's when the lockdown happened and the film got stuck so I sure the producers will take a decision on how and when they want to release the film. The film has already been shown in festivals like the South Asian International Festival where it won the best film. This festival happens in Manhattan and it took place last year in November. The film was also shown in Rajasthan International Film Festival this year in January and we won the best actor, best actress and best director for it. I am really hoping to release this film so that our audiences can watch it."

"Apart from this, I have 2 amazing music videos, 2 Punjabi films, 1 horror film in Hindi and web series which would have marked my debut in the web world but no idea on when this would happen, just keeping my fingers crossed," she shared.
