Hema Malini: I do Ramdev Baba's yoga for half an hour in the mornings. I also like to have aloe vera and amla juice. Of course, dance always works for me.
Esha: I have a very good trainer Satya who has trained me for the past nine years. I usually start my work-out with a bit of stretching, followed by walking and slow jogging. After that, I work on my abs, shoulders, back and concentrate on my legs thrice a week. When I travel, I like to go for outdoor jogs.
Ahana: In the mornings, it's yoga. When we don't have dance shows, I do my dance practices weekly. In the evenings I do kick-boxing at least four times a week. Apart from Odissi, I recently tried out this contemporary dance form Ciao, which I plan to perform in future
Hema Malini: I oil my hair at least once a week and apply particular oils advised by my mother. For skin care, I visit a beauty salon every month.
Esha: I oil my hair once a week. For my skin I use a lot of Dermalogica products and don't experiment too much, since my skin is very sensitive.
Ahana: Once a month I do visit a salon for a head massage and the entire hair care routine. For my skin, I use herbal paste and products, personally made by a friend with additional ingredients added by me.
Ahana: So many, but this one incident stands out. I was studying in New York for two years, and when I came back; my mom and sister came to receive me. It was very emotional. Another incident is when we went for a family vacation to Venice, which included my cousins as well. And there the only way to move about is by boats. I was looking at some pigeons falling in the water thinking that my family is behind me. Suddenly, I heard a horn and when I looked back and realised none of my family was there. I began crying and then there was this Italian guy who shouted "Mother, mother!" And then a boat came back and I saw my mom with tears in her eyes.
Dancing together…
Hema Malini: When we dance together, rehearsals are fun. If I make a mistake on stage, it gives an opportunity to my daughters to tease me and say, 'Mummy you have made a mistake' and just to hear that I love to make mistakes. I love to be together with them, dance or not. For instance, doing this photo shoot has given me immense joy. I love to see my daughters in different dresses and how beautiful they look. I feel very happy as a mother.
Hema Malini: There should be fights and a patch up after that which is natural. It makes the bond stronger. If something is missing in the togetherness one can always feel it. For instance, Dharam ji is the first person to notice it and be there if ever there is a problem.
Esha: It takes a lot of understanding, compromises and effort.
Ahana: Time- Everyone needs to have time. When we have time together, it's the best thing. I love to holiday together, just the three of us.
Most precious memory of being together…
Esha: A lot of memories, especially of the growing up years when mom, dad, my sister and I would go out on holidays. Like I remember going to Hyde Park in London, even now when I go to London, I get very nostalgic. These childhood vacations are something I will never forget. We were all in Switzerland and my dad is very particular about being on time. We had to catch a train at six in the morning. He woke us up at 2:00 am in the night. We took a bath, got dressed and reached the station and took the train and that's when we realized we took the 4:00 am train. And then we started laughing realising we have reached two hours earlier.
