"15km swim yesterday in Goa ! 4.5km for @ankita_earthy - Milind Soman"

Mumbai, March 4

Actor and Fitness enthusiast Milind Soman decided to celebrate the festival of Holi in his unique way. While people across the country were busy celebrating with colors, Milind and his better half, Ankita Konwar, decided to put their swimming abilities to the test.

While the 'Emergency' actor swam for 15 kilometers in Goa on Tuesday, Ankita completed a stretch of 4.5 kilometers.

Posting some photos and videos from the adventure on his official Instagram handle, Milind wrote, "15km swim yesterday in Goa ! 4.5km for @ankita_earthy and big thank you to @goaowsclub...Happy Holi to everyone!!!!! (sic)"

Not just Milind, Ankita also shared her experience in her own words on social media, saying, "Happy Holi from Goa...A 4.5k swim for me and a 15k swim for @milindrunning with the dolphins!! Had the best time with our friends at @goaowsclub !! Managed to squeeze in a 6k Holi run before the flight...May this spring bring you strength and positivity".

Milind's feed acts as a constant source of inspiration for fitness junkies across the country as the 'Four More Shots Please' actor continues to push his physical boundaries even at 60.

Back in February, Milind and Ankita cycled 55 kilometres uphill to an 'elevation of 3,000 feet' at Panhalad in Kolhapur with some of their friends.

While they were there, they even paid respects to one of the brave Generals of Chhatrapati Shivaji, Baji Prabhu Deshpande.

Taking to his official social media handle, Milind published snippets from the ride, and captioned the post, "Today @ankita_earthy , our friends and I rode 55km with a climb of 3000ft in Kolhapur around the hills of Jyotiba temple and the fort of Panhala :) paid respects to one of the brave Generals of Chhatrapati Shivaji, Baji Prabhu Deshpande .. I ride only 10-15 times in a year, so every opportunity is welcome."

Respect for the fitness level, but honestly, Holi is about community, family, and playing with colors together. This feels a bit disconnected from the festival's spirit. Good for him, but I'll stick to celebrating with my family in the colony.

Swimming with dolphins in Goa for Holi? That sounds like a dream! And they visited Panhala fort too. It's nice to see them combining fitness, travel, and paying respects to our history. More power to them!

As someone living in Goa, it's great to see celebrities promoting the state's natural beauty and activities beyond just the beaches and parties. The open water swimming club here is fantastic.

15km at 60 years old is no joke. My New Year resolution was to walk 5k steps daily and I'm already struggling. This man is a machine! Time to get off the couch.

I love that they paid respects to Baji Prabhu Deshpande at Panhala. It's important to remember our heroes. Fitness, adventure, and culture – a perfect combo. Happy Holi to all! 🎨
