MUMBAI, Oct 13 — Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty is writing a book on health and nutrition, Press Trust of India (PTI) reported.

The book, which Shetty has been working on in the last seven months, will highlight everything the 39-year-old actress has learned about fitness and living a healthy life.

“It's all in the mind. You have to train your mind to lose weight and make lifestyle changes. With a positive approach you can achieve anything,” she said.

The “Baazigar” star said she makes sure that her two-year-old son Viaan, whom she has with husband Raj Kundra, maintains a healthy lifestyle.

“I am also writing the book as a mother. There are a lot of people who don't understand the meaning of nutrition. My son is very lean but he eats a healthy diet. I don't believe in dieting and fasting,” Shilpa said.

The actress said she has completed the 17th draft for the book which she is writing with the help of a nutritionist.

The book will be published in English next year. — Bernama
