We haven't even stepped into March yet, but Katrina Kaif's already dreaming about mangoes. Shooting in Cuba for Ek Tha Tiger, the diva just can't wait to get her hands on some ripe Alphonsos, dieting be damned. As she explores the brand new land and its local cuisine after her shoot, Katrina Kaif reveals some food and diet secrets:
Nutri-care I drink plenty of water and eat balanced, nutritious meals and exercise to stick fit. I THINK that eating nutritious food is essential and fruits form crucial a part of it. There are lots of dieting rules and one should determine what works best in your body. Don't follow anything blindly or from reading books alone. Take professional help as well.
I don't love to eat everything together at meal times; so fruits act pretty much as good snacks in between main meals.
Fresh cut I love mangoes and my favourite variety is Alphonso. Staying in Mumbai helps me get my fill of Alphonsos every season. I remember, during an ad campaign shoot, I needed to pose with some freshly cut mangoes. I kept eating the mangoes and so they needed to keep replenishing them! But to inform you the truth, I REALLY LIKE to make interesting mocktails with mango drinks. Fresh mint leaves and ice in a mango drink tastes divine. Also, mangoes make for just the very best in-between-meal snack. Besides that, I LOVE the straightforward yet cool and refreshing taste of dahi-chawal (rice with curd).
Going local Whenever I travel to a brand new place, I be sure that I explore the local cuisine and culture. This time, I'VE tried the Cuban cuisine and it sure could be very interesting. The fusion of Spanish, African and Caribbean ingredients and spices gives it a flavourful blend and taste.
I need to explore the rustic soome more, nevertheless it is a hectic schedule as we're in a special country and this can be a demanding film. Whatever little time we get from the shoot, we attempt and compensate for a little bit local culture, food, etc.
But what's got my adrenaline running are the stunts that I MUST train for as I'm performing them within the film. It will be a thrilling and a brand new experience.
