Shilpa Shetty on importance of endorsing healthy lifestyles as a celebrity says “I think a little more than other people in my field”

Shilpa Shetty is a prominent Bollywood actress and fitness advocate who emphasizes the importance of health in her life and career. With a disciplined approach to wellness, she inspires her fans to adopt healthier lifestyles. There has been an ongoing debate surrounding Bollywood celebrities who promote unhealthy lifestyles through brand associations, despite maintaining personal fitness regimens.
However, Shilpa Shetty reveals she stands apart from this trend, emphasizing the diligence and care she applies when choosing brands to endorse. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Shilpa discussed her responsibilities as a public figure, stating unequivocally that she will never endorse products detrimental to health. She remarked, “As an actor, I have endorsed a couple of products where I'm like ‘ismein thodha zada sugar hai’ (it has more sugar)... But then I can't be the wicked witch from hell. You know, people have a little bit of sugar, but even so I am extremely particular. I think a little more than other people in my field.”

Shilpa views health as a precious gift and is adamant about not endorsing refined sugars, junk food, or aerated drinks. “For me, health is a gift. Refined sugar, junk food and aerated drinks are things that I don't want to endorse purely out of choice," she emphasized. Her commitment extends beyond personal choices; it encompasses her family as well. “But these are not things that I feed my family. I practice what I preach. You have to walk the talk and you have to really win it,” she stated.

Shilpa’s husband, Raj Kundra, also attests to the positive influence of her lifestyle on their family. He shared with Bombay Times, “I am 49 now and ageing better than ever! Thanks to my wife and her lifestyle it has rubbed off on me.” This highlights how Shilpa’s commitment to health not only shapes her life but also positively impacts those around her.
Recently, Shilpa shared a motivational post with her followers that combined fitness with enjoyment. In a video showcasing an energetic dance routine while holding dumbbells, she encouraged her audience with the caption: “Gentle reminder for the week - don’t forget to dance a little ������ #MondayMotivation #SwasthRahoMastRaho #fitness #Trends.”
