Actor-fitness icon Milind Soman completes 30 years in entertainment: Part of narratives that align with my well being
As he celebrates 30 years as an actor, Milind Soman is looking forward to the 'best phase' of his career so far. Actor Milind Soman 'This is going to be a great year for me,' says the actor-model, looking back at his many years in the industry. The 59-year-old who was recently seen in The Royals adds, 'My experience has allowed me to truly grasp the nuances of acting. Today, I know the layers of this craft; I enjoy my work and bringing my characters to life.' The actor shares that he has allocated one hundred days a year to acting, he says, 'This is to ensure that I am part of good narratives that align with my priority for health and well-being. I believe in balancing work and life. If I am not in a fit and healthy space, it will sooner or later impact my work.' "One should prioritise a healthy being. Otherwise, earning money only to spend it on health issues yields no gain. Over the years, I have learned to focus on my well-being and cultivating happy surroundings, as that is what truly allows you to enjoy your professional life," Milind explains. Milind is making significant in-roads in the streaming space — he is all set to return to the small screen with Four More Shots Please! as well as an untitled Tamil web series with actor Vijay Sethupathi. As for OTT, he believes, 'is the place to be.' However, he asserts that his passion transcends mediums: 'Irrespective of medium, space, or region, I just want to work.' After spending three decades in entertainment, the actor shares that his priority is maintaining a healthy work-life balance. 'I've allocated 100 days a year to acting to ensure that I'm part of good narratives that align with my priority for health and well-being,' he says.

Milind Soman at 59: The secret behind his ageless fitness & clean living
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) At 59, Milind Soman continues to redefine what it means to be fit and fearless. The supermodel-turned-actor—who became a household name with Made in India back in the '90s—is still as energetic and grounded as ever. Here, let's take a look at the impressive fitness routine of Milind Soman. Laziness is the biggest challenge, Milind says Talking to Hindustan Times, Milind Soman said, "Laziness is the biggest challenge in fitness. I don't like waking up early, so that's my challenge. But to get more energetic, one has to keep moving. Once you overcome the mental block, you can overcome anything.' He further said that he works out only for 10 to 12 minutes a day and also doesn't follow any strict diet. For Milind, he consumes whatever he feels like eating. Building strength from within Milind's routine is all about building strength from within, whether it's running barefoot marathons or walking and cycling across hundreds of kilometers. 'Fittest Jodi' Milind Soman & Ankita Konwar Celebrate India's Fitness Evolution Recently, as part of the #FitIndianRun initiative, he pushed himself through 330 kilometers in three days—a journey he called one of the most 'strenuous and fulfilling' of his life. For Milind, fitness doesn't need fancy gym memberships or intense equipment, as his workouts include running, walking, and cycling. What's on his plate? Nothing fancy—just real food When it comes to food, Milind believes in keeping things natural. No diets, no fads—just wholesome meals cooked at home. He starts his day with water, eats fruits and nuts for breakfast, and keeps his lunch traditional—rice or rotis, dal, vegetables, and a spoonful of ghee. Dinner is simple and early, often a bowl of khichdi or lightly cooked vegetables. He does eat meat occasionally, but it's rare. What does he avoid completely? Anything processed or overly packaged. More than just muscles: His mantra for a balanced life Milind's approach to health isn't just about how he looks—it's about how he feels. He listens to his body, rests when needed, and never pushes himself to extremes. Fitness, for him, isn't a goal—it's just a part of life. He treats food with respect, focuses on staying mentally at peace, and embraces the joy of movement every single day. It's this gentle, consistent balance that keeps him ageless—and truly inspirational.
