Actor Bipasha Basu has always been a fitness enthusiast given that she started her career as a model. But an illness diagnosed in 2005 forced her to seriously get on the fitness track.
"I need to treat my joints well because I have osteoarthritis for the last 15 years. I need to be extra careful," she recently shared talking about her strictness with gym.
Fortunately for her, hubby Karan is also inclined towards fitness. But he gives the credit to his wife.
During Alone, we were shooting from 7am to 7 pm out in the sun. I'd fear I'd have to skip my exercise. But when I'd see Bipasha head straight to the gym after the shooting, I was like, "What are you made of?" She had done as much work, maybe more, because an actress requires a lot of time for make-up and hair. Also, she would come earlier than I did. This discipline is something that I caught on since that day," he shared.
