I eat right to stay fit: Priyanka Chopra

Mumbai: Actress Priyanka Chopra is not only known for her powerful acting capabilities but also for her hour-glass figure. She credits her healthy diet chart for her body.

Priyanka was on the sets of Zee TV’s “Cinestars Ki Khoj” to promote her upcoming movie `Mary Kom` where she revealed the secret of her healthy body.

When quizzed about how she maintains herself, she said: “I believe that in order to stay fit and lose weight in a right manner, one needs to eat and not starve themselves. I eat right and ensure that I burn it all by working out equally as much as I eat.”

She reunited with her `Barfi` director Anurag Basu, one of the judges of the talent hunt show, briefly to judge with him.

While the two shared anecdotes from their `Barfi` days, Basu told the unit about Priyanka having an elephant’s diet.

He spoke about her gulping down two to three parathas for breakfast and a 12 inch pizza for lunch all by herself. 

The episode will air Sunday.

`Mary Kom`, based on Olympic bronze medallist boxer M.C. Mary Kom's life, is directed by Omung Kumar. It is slated for a Sep 5 release.
