Actress Priyanka Chopra is not only known for her powerful acting capabilities but also for her svelte figure. She credits her healthy diet chart for her body.

Chopra was on the sets of Zee TV’s Cinestars Ki Khoj to promote her upcoming movie Mary Kom where she revealed the secret to her fitness.

On how she maintains herself, Chopra said: “I believe that in order to stay fit and lose weight in a right manner, one needs to eat and not starve themselves. I eat right and ensure that I burn it all by working out as much as I eat.”

She reunited with her Barfi! director Anurag Basu, one of the judges of the talent hunt show. While the two shared anecdotes from their Barfi! days, Basu told the unit about Chopra having an elephant’s diet.

He spoke about her gulping down two to three parathas (Indian bread) for breakfast and a 12-inch pizza for lunch.

Mary Kom, based on Olympic bronze medallist boxer M.C. Mary Kom’s life, is directed by Omung Kumar. It is slated for a September 5 release in India.
