Mumbai, March 18:
Against age and expectations, old-timer actor Anita Raj shocked fans and fellow celebrities alike with her sheer determination to exercise at 62 years old. On February 28, the actress posted a motivating Instagram photo featuring her fitness regime, with routines from serious weightlifting to an incredible 61-minute plank.

Fitness Journey Rooted in Discipline

Anita’s post also went nostalgic, reminding the fans that she was a fitness icon way before social media trends, having launched India‘s first fitness video in 1989 called ‘KEEP FIT WITH ANITA RAJ’.

“I feel energetic, strong, and agile—all thanks to my dedication to fitness,” she wrote. Anita credits her success not only to her passion but also to the guidance of fitness experts and the encouragement of her friends, fondly calling her ‘Punjab Power’.

The actress revealed that her fitness regime includes:

• Core-strengthening exercises like planks (holding for an incredible 61 minutes!)
  
• Heavy weightlifting to build muscle and improve strength
  
• Balance, flexibility, and endurance training
  

Her dedication and perseverance have impressed fans and celebrities alike, with actor Shilpa Shetty saying “Goals!” on her post

Looking Forward

Thankful for her journey so far, Anita Raj ended her message with hope:
“I look forward to many more years of strength, fitness, and inspiring others on this path. Gratitude always.”

Her message is a strong reminder that “age is merely a number” and consistency, discipline, and passion are the secret ingredients to remaining fit and fabulous at any age.
