The fit and fabulous, Malaika Arora never fails to inspire us with her fitness posts and workout sessions. From her posts about the immunity boosting drink to a series of one asana a day, the actress always encourages people to stay fit and healthy.
Malaika shared a picture of herself in the pose and captioned it, “Hey everyone! I thought we’d take a little break yesterday but I hope you all had a great Raksha Bandhan and spent some lovely time with your loved ones, even those who did it virtually! I love how such festivals bring everyone together! Now let's get back to the amazing week ahead with some movement, stretching and sweating with #MalaikasMoveOfTheWeek .”

She also gave steps on how to do the asana.
The actress wrote, “This week’s pose is Anjaneyasana! Start in a downward dog. As you exhale bring your right foot forward and place it in between your hands aligning the right knee and heel in a straight line. Lower your left knee to thr ground. Slide it back if needed till you feel a comfortable stretch in your left thigh. Inhale and lift your chest upright, taking your arms upwards, either parallel to each other or palms joined. With ever exhale, bend deeper into the pose, pressing your tailbone towards the floor. If possible, take your head back and look up. To come out of the pose, go back into the downward dog and repeat on the other side (sic).”
Malaika also said, “This is a great pose to stretch out your thigh, groin area and open your chest.”
