Mumbai, Oct 29 (NationPress) Anshula Kapoor, daughter of Boney Kapoor, candidly discussed her complex love-hate relationship with her body. The participant of 'The Traitors' shared her struggles with maintaining a workout routine over the years.
In a recent gym video posted on her Instagram, Anshula expressed, “I’ve always had a bit of a love-hate relationship with my body & with working out” (sic).
She elaborated that her perception of what it means to be “healthy” has evolved; it is now focused more on how she feels than on her appearance.
“Somewhere along the way, “healthy” has started meaning something different. It’s less about how I look & more about how I feel. It’s not about punishing myself; it’s about listening to what my body, my mind, and my energy truly need each day,” the entrepreneur stated.
Anshula emphasized the importance of progress, even on days when she feels less motivated.
“Some days I show up strong. Some days I barely show up at all. But I’ve realized that both count. Because effort—even the inconsistent kind—still signifies you’re moving forward. Maybe that’s what being healthy truly means: not perfection, just presence,” she concluded.
Through social media, Anshula frequently shares her thoughts on physical and mental wellness.
Recently, the sister of actor Arjun Kapoor reflected on the significance of self-acceptance and body positivity.
In discussing her acceptance journey, Anshula mentioned, “I used to look at some of these photos and only see what I didn’t like…the cellulite on my thighs, the loose skin on my arms, the little wrinkles around my eyes…but looking back now, all I see are moments I was genuinely happy.”
“It’s incredible how time softens your perspective. You begin to realize that no one else obsesses over the flaws you notice, and your body is more than just its appearance—it’s about what it enables you to do every day. Perhaps we’re not meant to look perfect in every photo; we’re meant to feel something when we see them again—a reminder of our journey and growth,” she added.
