In the video, she wore a yellow crop top and yoga pants and was bare foot. She raised both her arms, and performed belly moves slowly with gym equipment in the background. She was all smiles as she posed for the camera. She added Belly Dance Workout song along with the video.

Sharing belly dance workout video on Instagram, Shilpa wrote, “Everything in life deserves a JHATKA or a tadka, at regular intervals. My #MondayMotivation is no different. Today’s routine includes a belly dance move, which works the core inside-out. Our core consists of the pelvic, lower back, glute, and abdominal muscles. This belly dance move trains the core for strength and shape.”

She told how to do belly dance, and wrote, “How to do it: Keeping one leg straight with the foot flat on the floor, raise the heel of the other leg as high without bending at the knee and then draw an outward circle with your hip. Repeat on the other side and work alternately (Imagine drawing the infinity sign).”

She further wrote, “Once you master this move, you can perform a mix of slow and fast movements to challenge your core. Belly dance also helps in learning how to control the core and works on the deeper abdominal muscles. Different from the usual, isn’t it? What does your Monday look like? Let me know in the comments below.” She used ‘swast raho mast raho’, ‘fit india movement’, ‘ss app’, ‘simple soulful’, ‘belly dance’, ‘home workouts’, ‘fit india’ and ‘fitness’ as the hashtags.

Her actor-sister Shamita Shetty dropped heart emojis in reaction to the post. Celebrity fitness coach Yashmeen Chauhan wrote, “Yeaaahhhhhh (fire emoji).” Reacting to the clip, one of Shilpa’s fans commented, “Hey Shilpa! Teach us also these jhatkas (moves).” Another fan wrote, “Slow slow moves kinne beautiful lag rah hai (These small moves look beautiful).” Other fan commented, “Stunning, you are so fit touchwood (red heart emojis).”

A fan wrote, “Thanks ma’am, it is a super guidance for beginners who wants to learn belly dance.” “My monday hasn’t started yet because it is still 11:45 pm Sunday here in New Jersey. Whatever it looks like, I am ready for it”, wrote one. “Wow, amazing”, added another. Many fans dropped heart emojis on the video.

Fans will now see Shilpa in filmmaker Rohit Shetty’s first web series Indian Police Force. It will mark her OTT debut, with actor Sidharth Malhotra. The show will also star Vivek Oberoi. The official date for the release of the series will be announced soon. She also has a film titled Sukhee in pipeline.
