Megha Gupta: I would love to find someone, who matches my wavelength, but as of now, I am single and happy in Goa

Megha Gupta

, who moved to Goa almost two years ago, has no plans of returning to Mumbai. The actress, who has been part of TV shows like Main Teri Parchai Hoon and Yeh Aashiqui, reveals that she has turned into a 'biohacker' – a broad term for a lifestyle that is getting increasingly popular across the globe after originating in Silicon Valley. “A

biohacker

is someone, who performs experiments on their own bodies with the hope of boosting their physical and immunity system. I want to be known as one of the best biohackers in India,” she says.

Recently, Megha posted a video in which she is seen talking about the importance of strength training and increasing immunity. In the video she is seen wearing a bikini and slipping into a big barrel filled with almost 100 kgs of ice. Talking about it, she says, “I wore a bikini because your body needs to be constantly in touch with the ice. Ice-baths reduce inflammation and increase the body's immunity.”

Megha says she wearing a bikini has now become second nature to her. “I have a fit and toned body, and I have no qualms about wearing a bikini or posting videos wearing one. Secondly, in Goa people wear a bikini even if they travel on their scooter from one place to other. It is not a big deal here. If you are taking a dip in the pool or the sea, what else will you wear?” she laughs.

Megha is enjoying living in Goa and admits that it has transformed her into a happy and fit person. She says, “Our life in Mumbai was 90 per cent waiting for good roles and 10 per cent shooting on the sets. All that is over now. I am not saying there was any dearth of good opportunities, but life in Mumbai with all the traffic, partying, loud noise et al is all over for me – I am happy being at home and being by myself. My family is not with me and I miss them, but Goa is a great city to live in.”

Megha got divorced from actor Siddhant Karnick two years ago and says that she is open to falling in love again. She says, “I would love to find someone, whose ideas match with mine. Our wavelengths should match. Having said that, I have a great set of friends here, so I am not missing any company. I am happy doing my work every day and winding up by evening. I sleep by 9pm because I wake up early. Life is cool and peaceful here.”
