Sush has always been an adventure and fitness enthusiast. We have seen her take to the Indian ocean to enjoy scuba and deep sea diving with her daughters.


For the uninitiated, a nunchaku is a Japanese Okinawan martial arts weapon. It is made of two wooden sticks connected to each other with an iron chain. The legendary Bruce Lee was an expert in this art form.
