Lakshmi Manchu Shares Fond Memory of Sridevi on “Beauty With Lakshmi” Show
Actress Lakshmi Manchu recently welcomed Maheep Kapoor as a guest on her show “Beauty With Lakshmi”, where they discussed essential topics surrounding self-care. The conversation covered important issues for women, such as perimenopause, the significance of sleep, maintaining a good diet, and prioritizing oneself for a healthier lifestyle.
During the episode, Lakshmi Manchu shared a touching and amusing anecdote about an encounter with the late legendary actress Sridevi at the gym. Lakshmi recalled how she saw Sridevi working out on the treadmill with her hair oiled up, which left a lasting impact on her. “I remember being at a gym once when she was there and I couldn’t enter because she had put this oil in her hair and was on the treadmill. This was in Hyderabad, and then I realized that Sridevi ji was on the treadmill with her hair fully oiled. Growing up, oil was a special part of South Indians, and earlier, I used to hate it. But that one moment just shifted it for me. I realized that if the legendary Sridevi is doing it, it has to be incredible because she is all natural,” Lakshmi shared.
Maheep Kapoor, responding to Lakshmi’s story, praised Sridevi’s grooming and self-care habits, calling her a genius in all things related to diet and beauty. “She was a queen. Everything, right from her grooming to her diet, she just knew it all. She was really and honestly a genius in all this, and it showed. She just used to glow,” Maheep said.
The episode, where Lakshmi Manchu and Maheep Kapoor discuss the importance of self-care, has gone viral on social media. Lakshmi also emphasized the importance of mental and physical health amidst a busy schedule. “The art of self-care is something that we all must understand. It is no rocket science. It’s as simple as the fact that if you don’t love yourself enough to take good care of yourself, you shouldn’t be expecting others to give you that love and care as well,” Lakshmi said, reflecting on the importance of self-love and personal well-being.
