Dharmendra On Importance Of Yoga: 'People Call Me Old, I Am Still Young'
Last Updated: Dharmendra mentioned that yoga is not just an exercise but also helps in overcoming various health issues. On the occasion of the International Day of Yoga, veteran actor Dharmendra opened up about the significance of yoga. In a recent interview, the Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani actor credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for championing yoga worldwide. 'I think Modi ji started it, and before that, Ramdev ji also began this movement. Many people from other countries wanted to patent it, but it didn't happen. This is our civilisation, our culture, which has been going on for centuries. And it is necessary," Dharmendra told the news agency ANI. The actor mentioned that yoga is not just an exercise but also helps in overcoming various health issues. 'Yoga can cure many diseases. If you have breathing problems, remember that health is wealth," he said. The 89-year-old actor further gave a befitting reply to all those who call him old and said, 'Many people call me old, but I am still young." 'I used to dream of working hard and cycling. I would see my reflection in film posters and ask myself, 'What am I going to achieve?' I used to wake up at night and dream, and when I woke up in the morning, I would ask the mirror," he shared. Meanwhile, on the work front, Dharmendra was last seen in Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon's Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. Released in February 2024, the film received positive reviews from all and is now streaming on Prime Video. Next, Dharmendra will soon be seen in Sriram Raghavan's 'Ikkis', which will star Amitabh Bachchan 's grandson, Agastya Nanda, in the lead. Recently, the actor was asked about his upcoming movie when he refused to share much details and simply told ANI, 'Now my film is coming, Ikkis. Sriram Raghavan director hai (Sriram Raghavan is the director). Very good director. And very good subject. I won't talk about it 2 October ko release ho rahi hai (Film will releases on October 2)."

Neeraj Chopra: ‘Very happy after Doha, no more 90m questions'
Neeraj Chopra has revealed his relief at being rid of the 90m questions that dogged him at every press conference since he won the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Since the Tokyo Games, where he became the country's second individual gold medal winner at an Olympics, Neeraj has gone on to win plenty of accolades, including a silver at Paris Olympics last year and a gold and silver medals at the World Athletics Championships. But the 90m distance eluded him, with his best throw being just six centimetres short of the elusive threshold in javelin. That changed at the Doha Diamond League meet where he breached the 90m mark for the first time. But that Doha event was a mixed one for Neeraj as he had ended second behind Germany's Julian Weber, who also threw over the 90m mark for the first time in his career. Then at the Janusz Kusocinski Memorial event too, Neeraj had ended behind Weber. At the Paris Diamond League meet on Friday evening, Neeraj finally defeated Weber. While talking to American media group Flo Track after the win, Neeraj was congratulated by the panellists on entering the 90m club earlier this year at Doha Diamond League. To this, Neeraj responded: 'I'm happy because before throwing 90m, (I used to get) lots of questions about it. Every interview, everyone asked me, 'when will you throw 90m?' So I'm very happy that one question is not there more. So I'm very happy with the throw. Hope I will throw much further than 90 metres.' Neeraj revealed that he will compete after at the Ostrava event on June 24. Javelin legend Jan Zelezny, who is the director of the Ostrava meet, has been working as Neeraj's coach. Neeraj called it 'one of the greatest competitions in track and field'. Talking about the Paris event, a 'tired' Neeraj said he was happy to win: 'It was a very good start. I felt really good at the start. But I had too much speed today. The runway was perfect, but I couldn't handle my speed today. So I need to do some more work for my last attack. It was a really good run up. I'm happy with the run-up and also the throw itself. The start was good but I was hoping for some more good throws. I'm happy to win here.' On being asked about his widespread popularity in track and field, Neeraj said: 'I feel really good because in track and field you can say like I am famous from India. But you know about cricket, how big cricket is in India. I'm very happy to represent my country in track and field and I'm proud that some other junior athletes are also coming. Maybe in few years they will throw far and (also do well in) some other events in track and field. So I'm very happy that not only me, but also some other junior athletes are also coming up from India.' Neeraj was also asked if being a great javelin thrower also made him a good cricket bowler since the delivery actions were similar. 'I have never tried because in cricket we have to throw the ball down. But in javelin (we throw up). But definitely I will try baseball, throw some pitches when I will be in USA. After Tokyo (winning Olympics gold in 2021) I was in Chula Vista for three months training. Maybe, next time when I come to USA, I will try baseball.'

International Day of Yoga: Bollywood celebs stretch and bend in the quest of fitness
Yoga remains a favourite form of movement for Bollywood celebrities looking to stay healthy and fit. From Malaika Arora slipping into child's pose to Shilpa Shetty acing the downward dog, our favourite stars have often bent, stretched, and twisted themselves into asanas to strengthen muscles, regulate the nervous system, and improve digestion. On the occasion of International Day of Yoga, several celebrities took to social media to share their go-to yoga poses and pay tribute to the ancient practice. 'Balance is the key to maintaining the equilibrium between mind, body and soul,' Shilpa Shetty wrote in the caption of her Instagram video, where she is seen gracefully folding forward on her yoga mat. A post shared by Shilpa Shetty Kundra (@theshilpashetty) Prashant Singh, a certified yoga practitioner based in Bengaluru, says, 'Yoga is a fantastic way to get in shape and take care of your body, mind, and spirit. It's not just about fancy poses; it's about feeling good in your skin and connecting with yourself.' Here are 5 celeb-approved yoga asanas and their benefits: Padmasana, or the lotus pose, is widely recognised for promoting both physical and mental stability. This is not merely a belief but a physiological reality. During the posture, sensations from the lower spinal column travel through a group of nadis (energy channels) to the brain, helping calm the nervous system. The resulting mental tranquillity often translates into improved physical health. A post shared by Masaba (@masabagupta) Bhujangasana expands the chest and deepens breathing, making it beneficial for respiratory health. It helps relieve backache and keeps the spine supple. A stiff spine can disrupt the flow of nervous impulses between the brain and the body. By arching the back and improving circulation in the spine, this asana tones the nerves and enhances neural communication. People with a slipped disc or sciatica may benefit from this pose, but it should be practised with caution. Vajrasana is considered as a higher yogic posture. Unlike cross-legged meditative poses, Vajrasana uniquely influences the vajra nadi, an energy channel believed to carry nervous impulses from the brain to the reproductive and urinary systems. It alters the flow of prana shakti (life force), and is traditionally said to help control sexual energy and redirect it towards spiritual awareness and consciousness development. Tadasana enhances both physical and mental balance. It stretches the entire spine, helping relieve congestion where spinal nerves exit the vertebral column. It also stretches the rectus abdominis and intestinal muscles. This asana is especially useful during the first six months of pregnancy, as it tones the abdominal muscles and nerves. One of its key benefits is stimulation of the nervous system. This lateral stretch targets the muscles along the sides of the torso, waist, and hamstrings. It stimulates the nervous system, alleviates nervous tension and depression, and aids digestion. The pose strengthens the pelvic region and tones the reproductive organs. With regular practice, it can help reduce waistline fat and balance pitta dosha in the body. 'Hold each pose for a few breaths at first, then increase the time as you get stronger. Most importantly, enjoy yourself. Yoga is a journey, not a race,' says Prashant Singh.
