Shilpa also shared a video of her performing several yoga asanas.

Earlier, Malaika Arora visited Gurugram to participate in a yoga session.

Speaking to ANI, Malaika described yoga as "very instrumental" in her life and shared how it has helped her both mentally and physically over the years."I would like to say I would give a lot of credit to my genes, but yoga has been very, very instrumental in shaping a lot of my life. I feel that practicing on my mat genuinely makes me happy; it centers me, it gives me focus-- all of that. So yes, I would give a lot of credit to yoga in my life."

Malaika went on to share her thoughts on stress in everyday life and how yoga helps her stay balanced. Addressing the increasing mental pressure in today's world, she said, "Life is full of stress," and yoga can help anyone-- not just public figures-- find calm and focus."I feel it has nothing to do with being a public figure. Everybody, on a daily basis, deals with a lot, whether you're a public figure, a housewife, or someone working a 9-to-5 job. We all deal with physical or mental issues on a daily basis. Life is full of stress," Malaika told ANI.

"Unfortunately, we are surrounded by situations. There's so much stimuli around us, phones being one of them. Every day, looking at phones and being on social media causes a lot of anxiety and stress. So, I think people today should find ways to de-stress, whatever it may be-- whether it's being outdoors, doing yoga, swimming, or meditating. Find that one activity that works for you, and make time for yourself to de-stress and love yourself," she added.

The open-air event was hosted in a peaceful setting, something Malaika said enhanced the experience.

While I appreciate celebrities promoting yoga, I wish they'd also highlight affordable yoga classes for common people. Not everyone can afford celebrity trainers or luxury wellness retreats.

Yoga changed my life! Started during lockdown and now I can't imagine my mornings without Surya Namaskar. These celebs are inspiring millions - hope more offices start yoga breaks instead of just coffee breaks ☕➡️🧘

Malaika's point about phone stress is so true! We've forgotten our roots while running after Western lifestyles. My grandmother did yoga daily at 5am without any fancy mats or clothes - just pure dedication. Simplicity is key.

Great initiative but I hope the yoga promotion goes beyond just one day. Our schools should make it compulsory like PT period. Imagine the health benefits if entire generations grow up with yoga! 🧘‍♂️

Love how Shilpa connects yoga with environmental consciousness too! Yoga isn't just about physical fitness - it's about harmony with nature. More people need to understand this holistic approach. #ProudOfOurCulture
