Food & Fitness formula of Delnaz Paul
Mom's house is my favourite place to eat, says Delnaz Paul. A typical Virgo, who does not believe in regime when it comes to food, but believes that being active and healthy is all that matters.
Food
When I think of food I think of anything that is edible. I am a complete foodie and a non-vegetarian. I love chicken. I can live on pani puris , pakodas and any rastey ka khana (roadside food).
Routine
I have boiled eggs and a toast for breakfast. I would die if I don't have my morning tea. If I am at home I have about 3 or 4 cups of tea. Then I have a fruit on the way to the shoot. At around 11 or 12 I have biscuits and fruit. My lunch is rice, dal and sabji . Just across my house is a great place for pizzas and very often I just order them for lunch. For dinner I have just soup. I have dinner only when I go out. But then I avoid rice, roti or bread.
All spice
I don't like sweets at all. I love spicy food. At home I have Maharashtrian khana . Being a Parsee, I am hooked on Parsee food. My favourites being, dal ghosh and mutton kababs . Parsee food is not easy to prepare. It is not easy to get the right taste if you don't know how to prepare it. Whenever I yearn for Parsee food I visit my mom.
Kitchen organiser
I am not fond of cooking. I might be a good cook, but never tried cooking. But yes, I am a very good kitchen organiser and very particular about cleanliness. I am a typical Virgo, so I do not like to remain unclean whether it is my house, my surrounding, or myself.
Favourite eating spots
I had amazing pizzas at New York. Urban Tadka at Seven Bungalows is my favourite, I like the chicken and Thai food at Pop Tates. And the most favourite of all is my mom's house.
Kal Ho Naa Ho . I am not really into a strict regime of work out or exercise. You can see that! I believe that eat whatever you want but eat right and healthy. Have a cheerful and a positive attitude. I am living for today Kal Ho Naa Ho . Never forget, there is only one life and so enjoy it to the fullest. I am always on the plumper side but I don't bother because I am always happy, positive and smiling. As far as weight is concerned I am sometimes petrified. Age is catching up, so whenever I get time I do some aerobic exercises. As I am a dancer I go for my dance classes.
Special skin care
Special care for skin is a must. Initially I use to keep washing my face often. But now I have become more conscious about my skin. I have studied my skin because make-up and so many different chemicals do ruin our skin. I do moisture it at home. I visit the parlour regularly for all that is necessary to keep me clean like the pedicure, manicure, and hair treatments. When I am at home, I always oil my hair, use the face scrub and a toner. It really helps because while I am shooting I am full of make-up for more than 12 hours.
My word
Always be positive. Don't crib about having a bad face, a bad complexion or a bad hair. Keep smiling because that helps you look good. I am plump but I am never negative about it. And it is not that I never tried losing weight, probably I am not meant to be skinny. People do come to me and tell me that I am over doing it as far as food is concerned but I don't bother. If I become skinny that does not mean I will get to play the role of a heroine. So stop daydreaming, be realistic. People have accepted me the way I am and I am happy. Accept yourself the way you are, just maintain your body to look healthy and active and not just beautiful.
Dream dinner
I would like to be on an island, like Hrithik and Amisha in Kaho Naa Pyar Hai . I too would love being on an uninhabited island with just him and me. What I would desire is a candle light dinner and some soft music. I would be dressed in a gown and he in a nice suit and the music would start just as I enter.
Delnaz is married to Rajiv Paul and both of them live in Mumbai
