Mumbai, Apr 7 (IANS): 'Dil Diyaan Gallan' actor Paras Arora spoke about his workout routine and how he balances it with his tight schedules. According to him, due to demanding schedules and long working hours, he needs to be in the best of his health at all times.

Talking about his fitness regimen, Paras said: "I try to get in a 45-minute workout irrespective of how busy my day is. I enjoy a healthy mix of running and weight training. While working out is great for your body, it also relaxes the mind. I find myself with a lot more mental clarity post exercise. On top of that, eating clean is also of utmost importance to me."

While speaking on the importance of meditation and yoga, Paras further added: "To me, exercise is my meditation. For those who are able to meditate, please continue to do so. It's a great tool to centre yourself and align your thoughts. This World Health Day, put yourself and your health first," said the 'Udaan' actor.
