Along with Abhay’s song, fitness, dress style and photo shoot are discussed. Abhay says these are his favorite areas apart from singing. In an interview with Manorama Online, Abhay Hiranmayi opens up.

Not only in song but also in fashion. Will you be active in modelling?

Basically I’m a singer. Everything else is done because of my interest in them. There is no such thing as doing just one thing. I have never had any difficulty doing anything else that comes with the song. If you ask me if I will be active in the modeling field, I don’t know. If I’m interested in something that comes my way, I don’t say no. If I’m comfortable, I’ll do photoshoots.

How to maintain fitness?

It’s only been 5 years since I started working out. Exercise regularly. Eat food very carefully. But I’m not changing my choices. Make sure you eat a well-balanced diet that includes everything you like. The truth is that you don’t care too much, whether it’s food or fitness. I do everything in such a way that I can live happily and confidently. After a good diet for two months, I am trying to balance my diet for the next few months.

Changes to exercise routine?

Keeping fit is a commitment to ourselves and to our bodies. I had the best coach for that. Ajeesh, a gym instructor. Arya Dayal, Shabarish Prabhakar and others are working out with me. Ajeesh takes care of the fitness of all of us. We stay fit because he has three times our sincerity. We travel a lot for stage shows and stuff. Keeping fit in the middle is a big challenge. You can get different types of food from different places. Similarly, when you go to many countries, you cannot miss the unique foods that are part of their culture. After all, when we come back home, it is because of Ajeesh that we get proper guidance and are able to maintain our fitness.

Eating habits?

I’m trying to eat more protein. Fruit is eaten before exercise during a proper diet. After coming back in the morning, he prepares a dish of two egg whites and a cup of coffee or eggs and spinach. In the afternoon we eat chicken or mum cooks fish. Evening salad, eggs or chicken. Eating the same food over and over gets boring. So eat a variety of food. Soybeans are eaten. Drink water well.

How do you deal with criticism of the dress code?

I didn’t even think the criticism of the dress was worth discussing. Because dressing is everyone’s choice. Criticism is also part of life. If you’re feeling intolerable after hearing all that, then that’s just the time. Everyone will have some sort of opinion when they see the clothes someone is wearing. I don’t care what other people say. It’s not even worth discussing.

Abhay is seen in folk and modern outfits. What is your favorite style of dress?

I love all the clothes and the style of dressing. I wear all kinds of clothes. I believe every outfit suits me. If you get a sari, you wear it. Apart from that, there is no excessive love for sarees. I feel most comfortable wearing a one piece dress with a top and bottom. I dress according to my comfort. I love all the clothes that make me feel good wearing them.

Do you set aside time for travel?

Trips. To be honest, traveling is a blessing. Sometimes things don’t go as we plan. Planned journeys are disrupted for many reasons. Sometimes, when you don’t have a plan, you suddenly feel like going on a trip. Mind will be renewed while traveling. Much travel is done for work and pleasure.

Post-covid stage show experiences?

Every stage show has given me the same experience. A stage is a platform where you can perform a live show and get an immediate response from the audience. That’s why doing a stage show is a very happy thing. The stage shows that were postponed due to covid have returned. It is a great joy to be able to sing on stage again.

Family history?

Mother Latika Mohan is a music teacher. Amma has been very busy with family life so far. Now he comes to the program and sings with me. Mum was always practicing singing and taking classes. Anujjat is not associated with films and music. She found her own career. She is a music connoisseur and critic. But he did not enter the world of music.
