Mumbai, June 21 (SocialNews.XYZ) As the world celebrates International Yoga Day on Friday, actress Tina Datta said that yoga has been a game-changer for her as she has become physically fitter and mentally stronger.

The actress, who gained the spotlight by playing Ichcha in the TV show “Uttaran”, shared that her journey with yoga commenced as a way to stay active during the lockdown, however, it quickly became a daily routine.

“It is soul-refreshing and cleanses your mind, body, and soul completely. There's less negativity in life, and you get to see things from a different, more positive perspective. There's more clarity when negative thoughts do not surround you, and that's what yoga helps you attain. There's nothing like yoga for me. I swear by it," she said.
