Anusha Dandekar In Workout Gear Is "Off the Grid"

Indian-Australian MTV VJ Anusha Dandekar is showing off the results of her active lifestyle and workout regimen. Dandekar, 42, shared pictures of herself wearing joggers and a sweatshirt, posing next to a window and displaying her enviable abs. “Off the grid,” she captioned the post. Dandekar is passionate about inclusivity in beauty and wellness—here’s what her diet, workouts, and beauty mantra looks like.

1. Active Lifestyle

Dandekar loves Pilates, tennis, gymnastics, and hiking. “I do not have a routine honestly,” she told Women Fitness. “I always start something, get super into it, then a shoot or my business gets too busy and I stop. But I love to rotate all the things I love and lucky all the people who train me are so patient with my sporadic approach.”

2. BrownSkin Beauty

Dandekar created her own beauty brand called BrownSkin Beauty, to encourage the acceptance of all skin tones and promote inclusivity. “My vision is that one day I don’t have to sit and explain that we all are beautiful,” she told Elle India. “I want everyone to feel that and feel empowered by their skin colour, by the way, they look, their flaws and whatever it is – embrace it. We have great products that work and so my vision for this brand is to to be known worldwide and for everyone to feel flawless, beautiful and be comfortable going.”

3. Practicing Gratitude

Dandekar makes sure her inner voice is always kind. ”Every time I am sitting at the table, I hear I can’t eat this, I can’t eat that. Why so much negativity towards food?” she told India.com. “What is your body hearing? Instead, say ‘I am so grateful for this food, and I love it, it gives me health, strength, and energy’.”

4. She Likes the Sun

"Vitamin D isn't naturally found in many foods, but you can get it from fortified milk, fortified cereal, and fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines. Your body also makes vitamin D when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin (calciferol)," says the Mayo Clinic.

5. No Bikini Bodies

Dandekar doesn’t believe in the bikini body term. “Everyone has a body and can wear a bikini,” she told India.com. “You just need to feel confident and good about yourself. While the model also reveals why you should push back the need for a perfect body and follow the concept of a healthy body ‘Whatever size you are, just make sure you are healthy. Because you want to avoid diabetes, health problems- just all of that. Body shaming, I don’t accept, but you should be more focused on health. So, if you are unhealthily thin or overweight and it’s causing your health issues, that’s not good for you.”

Indian-Australian MTV VJ Anushka Dandekar is trying new things in 2023—like a true Aussie, she is hitting the waves. Dandekar posted a series of photos of herself surfing in the beautiful waters of Goa in a black and orange bathing suit, saying it was “brutal” but amazing. “Surfs up 🏄‍♀️ ✌🏽. My body is still recovering,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit?

Dandekar is a huge fan of gymnastics. “Gymnastics is my all-time fav, then Pilates, tennis and ballet,” she says. “I cannot go to a gym because I find it boring and I don’t actually know what to do there. I much prefer outdoor activities like hikes and running on the beach, love it!”

2. She Doesn’t Restrict Food

Dandekar doesn’t believe in restrictive diets. “Honestly, I have never believed in dieting. I believe in being grateful for any food we receive and eat,” she says. “I believe in enjoying our blessings and if you are good at your food, it will be good for you. Also, everything is in moderation, humans tend to be greedy, and we should eat when we are hungry. I used to have the habit of eating every time I watch something. Now I watch something every time I have to eat! My fav snack though is popcorn, peanut butter, jam sandwiches, apple, and chips together sounds weird but it’s yum!”

3. Aloe Vera

Dandekar loves to use aloe vera gel to soothe her skin. “Aloe vera gel helps keep our skin clear and fresh,” she says. “I’ve suffered from melasma, acne, and dullness, and this would make the perfect base before I’d apply any products. Keep the plant in the fridge, and it acts as a cooling and healing mask for the skin.”

4. Self-Care

Dandekar prioritizes self-care for both mental and physical benefits. “Now more than ever, we’re taking care of ourselves to the core—from skin to hair, and even mind,” she says. “And looking after all of this enables our real beauty to shine through, which is important. When your skin feels good, automatically your day gets better. That’s the power of beauty products—they help you feel good about yourself. These products don’t hide who you are but enhance it.”

5. Music Is Her Therapy

Dandekar says “I struggle to meditate, I am such a hyperactive person,” she says. “My mental health is usually taken care of by really good music, writing down my thoughts and gratitude, countering the negative with positives, and the good things I learned from the experience and journey. Watching comedies and talking to my friends and family.
