‘Magic Water': Ankita Lokhande's Secret For Glowing Skin, Peaceful Mind
No fancy creams or high-end treatments, Ankita Lokhande's glow is homegrown, quite literally.
Television star Ankita Lokhande has long been admired not just for her acting chops but for her disciplined wellness routine that's giving fans serious lifestyle inspiration. Known for her powerful roles and glowing screen presence, the Pavitra Rishta actress recently made an appearance on Rubina Dilaik's podcast and opened up about the real secret behind her radiant skin, healthy body, and inner peace.
No fancy creams or high-end treatments here, Ankita's glow is homegrown, quite literally. She revealed that her morning routine includes drinking what she calls 'magic water", infused with saffron and charged with positive affirmations. Speaking about her morning routine, the actress shared, 'After I wake up, I start my day by consuming soaked methi seeds and dalchini water. Then I take a spoonful of a homemade mix made from ajwain, jeera and saunf."
She added, 'Along with that, I take aloe vera, a clove of garlic, saffron-infused water and a Vitamin C capsule as part of my morning intake. I actually started consuming this after I woke up, and this has brought a lot of changes in me."
She added that she begins her day with 1.5 to 2 litres of water. After that comes a special juice made from beetroot, coconut water, and a variety of seeds soaked overnight. 'I consume and I make sure Vicky also has it," she said with a smile.
The actress discussed the importance of these healthy morning routines, saying, 'This is very important because even if you are not able to follow everything throughout the day, your morning routine helps you. This has helped my skin and health a lot. My sleep cycle has also improved because of these practices. You start feeling good about yourself."
But it's not just about health, Ankita's morning also includes a spiritual connection. Her most special habit is what she calls 'magic water". 'I give energy to that water. I talk just positively and then I drink it. That's how I start my day. It's amazing. You have to do nothing. Just talk to that water. Give thanks to the universe. It's such an amazing feeling, I am getting goosebumps," she shared.
Rubina was so impressed that she even mentioned she might adopt the ritual herself.
Ankita also spoke about her devotional practices. 'I go for my shower, after I come back, half an hour is just me and my god. I recite the Ram Raksha Stotra, Hanuman Chalisa, Sankat Mochan and Bajrang Baan. I keep water there as well and charge that water by keeping it near the temple and I drink that water throughout the day."
Ankita, who is currently seen in Laughter Chef Season 2, continues to be one of the most followed stars on social media. Her fans often praise not just her on-screen performances, but also her real, relatable lifestyle tips, especially when it comes to beauty and wellness.
