Drashti Dhami, the beloved actress known for her roles in Madhubala and Geet Hui Sabse Parayi, is about to embark on an exciting new chapter as she prepares to welcome her first child with husband Neeraj Khemka. Through her social media presence, Drashti is challenging traditional norms and redefining what it means to be pregnant in today’s world. Recently, the soon-to-be mom shared an inspiring workout video, proving that pregnancy doesn’t have to mean giving up on fitness.

On August 12, Drashti posted a video of herself working out at the gym, showcasing her dedication to staying fit during pregnancy. The clip highlights her lifting weights and engaging in exercises aimed at strengthening her thigh muscles. By sharing this video, Drashti not only promotes the benefits of exercise for pregnant women but also sets a powerful example of how expectant mothers can remain active.

In her caption, Drashti emphasized the importance of working out during pregnancy, stressing that it should always be done under the guidance of a trained professional. She dismissed common stereotypes that pregnant women should avoid lifting weights and focus solely on rest and healthy eating. “Baby on the way 9–12 mahine ki chutti from working out? I don’t think so! We’ve all heard, ‘bhaari wazan nahi uthao’, ‘bass ab aaram karo, khao piyo…’ — but it doesn’t have to be that way!” she wrote.

Drashti further highlighted that staying active during pregnancy can reduce the risk of complications. “In fact, exercise is not dangerous for your baby. There is evidence that active women are less likely to experience problems in later pregnancy and labor,” she added.

Reflecting on the benefits of physical activity, she noted that working out can lead to increased energy, less weight gain, better preparation for labor, enhanced neuromotor skills in the baby, faster recovery post-delivery, and reduced back and pelvic pain.

However, Drashti also acknowledged that every pregnancy is unique and advised expectant mothers to consult with their doctor and professional trainers before starting any exercise routine.

The response to Drashti’s video has been overwhelmingly positive. Fans flooded the comment section with praise, calling her the “best” and expressing admiration for her strength. One fan commented, “You have always been the best actress, the best wife, the best friend, and now you will be the best mother.” Another wrote, “We are proud of you, my queen, because you are always strong. You really prove your strength in everything, my star.” Celebrities like Arjun Bijlani and Aditi Dev Sharma also showed their support, with Arjun dropping a red heart emoji.

Drashti Dhami first announced her pregnancy on June 14 in a heartwarming video featuring her husband and family. The couple is eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child in October 2024. Sharing her excitement, the Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil actress wrote, “It is CRAZY how much LOVE you can have for someone you haven’t even MET. Can’t wait for you OCTOBER 2024.”

As Drashti Dhami continues to embrace motherhood, she remains an inspiring figure, demonstrating that pregnancy can be a time of strength, health, and positivity.
