Manisha Koirala chooses healing over hustle with wellness getaway
Mumbai, June 7
Actress Manisha Koirala took to social media to share glimpses of her wellness getaway.
Taking to Instagram, she shared her picture and reflected on the importance of slowing down and choosing rest over relentless hustle. In the caption, Manisha expressed how this break is helping her pause, reset, and reconnect with herself through a restorative retreat focused on healing and balance.
She wrote, "Increasingly, I value travel that restores rather than exhausts. Off to a wellness retreat to pause, reset, recharge and be reminded that sometimes the most productive thing we can do is rest. #TravelForWellness #wellness #chivasom #ResetAndRecharge #wellnessjourney."
In the image, the 'Dil Se' actress is seen dressed in a stylish all-black outfit, paired with sunglasses and a hat. Manisha Koirala posed for the camera at the airport. Manisha, who is an avid social media user, had earlier reshared a video of her recreating the elegant look of her character Sheetal from the film "Gupt."
On the professional front, Manisha made her Bollywood debut with "Saudagar" and went on to feature in several acclaimed films, including "1942: A Love Story," "Bombay," "Khamoshi: The Musical," "Dil Se," "Gupt," and many more.
She was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period drama "Heeramandi." Manisha played the role of Mallikajaan, chief courtesan of Shahi Mahal, in the movie. Set in the red-light district of Heera Mandi in Lahore during the Indian independence movement, the show also featured Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh, Sharmin Segal, and Taha Shah Badussha.
Koirala took a three-year break from acting after being diagnosed with ovarian cancer. During this time, her long-delayed psychological thriller "Chehere: A Modern Day Classic," co-starring Divya Dutta, was released in 2015 but did not perform well at the box office. The following year, she appeared in the Kannada-Tamil mystery film "Game."

Finally, someone in our film industry is talking about rest! Manisha has always been a class act. Her journey from illness to this wellness retreat is really something. Hope she continues to prioritise her health. 🇮🇳👏
To be honest, I wish more actors would take breaks like this. The constant hustle culture is toxic. Manisha Koirala is showing real wisdom by choosing healing. She's always been underrated as an actress. Salute! 🙏
Manisha's post really hit home. In this stressful life, we all need to pause sometimes. She's been through so much and still gives us these gentle reminders. Her role in Heeramandi was fabulous too. Love her calm energy. 💕
Love this message! We're all so caught up in doing more that we forget to just be. Manisha is setting a great example. Hope she enjoys her retreat in Thailand (Chiva-Som looks amazing). Wishing her a peaceful time! 🌸
