Anushka has been practicing yoga for years now. Even during her pregnancy, Anushka was seen performing a Sirsasana, a yoga posture in which the head’s down and feet is up, with the help of Virat. Sharing the picture, Anushka had said, “As yoga is a big part of my life, my doctor recommended that I can do all such asanas that I was doing before I was pregnant( after a certain stage)barring twists & extreme forward bends, but of course with the appropriate and required support.”

Speaking about her head stand posture, she said, “For the Shirshasana, which I have been doing for many years, I ensured that I used the wall for support and also my very able husband supporting me balance, to be extra safe . This was also done under the supervision of my yoga teacher @eefa_shrof who was virtually with me through this session. I’m so glad I could continue my practice through my pregnancy.”
