Bollywood actress Shilpa shetty who successfully marketed a Yoga video in the European market now comes to India with a special video for her homeland.


Blending calm demeanor and sinuous postures and curves, the new Yogini displays how she maintains her slim, curvy and trim figure.

In her video, 32-year-old Shilpa explains the various nuances of Ashtanga Yoga including breathing exercises. She explains the benefits of various postures and points out how they enhance concentration, agility and flexibility. You get to know how mind and body are peacefully harmonized.

So far Shilpa shetty’s video has defeated competition from other fast-selling workout videos of fitness specialists Davina McCall, Samanda, Erin Boag, Karen Hardy, Rebecca Wheatley, Nell McAndrew, Fleur Murray, Lilia Kopylova, Gaynor Faye and Danielle Llyod.

In India her video will be in direct competition to that of Guru Ramdev.
When quizzed about the competition with the extremely popular Baba Ramdev VCDs and DVDs here, the actresses’ publicist Dale Bhagwagar said, “Shilpa is the sexiest yogi the world has ever seen. But it’s unfair to compare her DVD with Baba Ramdev’s. She is a kid in yoga, while Baba is a guru… a super gyaani in the world of yog. Shilpa can only bow before him.”

He also explained that Shilpa shetty had years of training that stood her in good use for this video. “Apart from practicing yoga daily for four years, Shilpa shetty took special added intensive training from yoga trainers Shiv Kumar Mishra and Vinayak Dixit for some time, making sure she perfected the asanas before demonstrating them to the world,” added Bhagwagar

Shot at the backwaters in Kerala, the DVD is produced by Shilpa’s newly launched production house ‘S2 Global Productions’ and directed by Manish Jha (of the critically-acclaimed feature films Matrabhoomi and Anwar fame). While Arghya Lahiri has written the script, the camerawork is handled by Englishman Jamie Sowlds.
The package also contains a free lounge music CD with compositions by Pankaj Awasthi
