These unique, homemade props offer both motivation and functionality. Vidisha plays the character of Anita Bhabhi in the sitcom , which airs on . Talking about the DIY props, the actress said, "Maintaining a stretched body and a calm mind is essential for focused action.
My yoga practice and homemade props have been invaluable in achieving this calmness. For example, I use walls for balance in standing poses or to deepen stretches whenever possible." She further stated, "I’ve also repurposed unused plastic wires into jump ropes because I enjoy jumping, and they also serve as yoga straps, assisting with stretching and improving flexibility.
Sometimes, I use filled water bottles as weights or to support certain poses, like yoga blocks. Let’s roll out our mats and invest in ourselves, after all, a healthy body means a healthy mind.".
