Actor Dipika Chikhlia, better known as Ramayan’s Sita, is all set to play veteran freedom fighter Sarojini Naidu. The hit TV serial’s star shared the first-look poster of the film on Thursday. Titled Sarojini, the poster shows Dipika looking away from the camera with huge crowds in the background.

Sharing the poster, Dipika wrote: “#sarojini#sarojininaudu …..1st look #poster……#starplus #ramayan #730 #everyday.” With minimal make-up, a middle-aged Dipika as Sarojini looks hopeful and reflective.

13. Monkey pose (Hanumanasana)-#yoga

This animal yoga pose tests just how acrobatic you really are! Can you do a complete split? Some children can do it naturally. But you can slowly work your way towards this position with time and regular practice. Athletes will find this easier to do because of their practice.

Benefits of monkey pose: It stretches the thighs, abdomen, and groins and makes your hips more flexible. 

Another kind of monkey pose:

  1. Stand straight and look forward. Lift your hands to your face level and clench your fists as if you are holding on to some branches.
  2. Bend your knees a little and look right, left, then right again.
  3. When you are looking right, jump to your left and when you are looking left, jump right. Like a playful monkey!

This animal yoga pose is ideal for children. It will have them in splits! Laughter is the best medicine, after all!

Benefits: It enables free movement of the neck and lateral movement of the limbs.
