Kapil Sharma’s on screen wife, Sumona Chakravarti is turning heads with her fierce fitness routine and bold, grounded transformation.
Kapil Sharma Show’s Sumona Chakravarti Reveals Her Workout Routine and Fitness Goals
Best known for her role as Kapil Sharma’s feisty on-screen wife in The Kapil Sharma Show, Sumona Chakravarti has long been a familiar face on Indian television. Her comic timing and expressive performances made her a household name, whether as “Manju” or “Sarla,” across the show’s various seasons. But beyond the laughs, there’s a version of Sumona that’s fiercely committed to personal growth and it begins at the gym.
A Fitness Journey Rooted in Strength
In a recent gym session, Sumona is seen performing an intense strength move hanging from a pull-up bar with a 6 kg medicine ball clutched between her knees. She took to Instagram to share a glimpse of her gym session, captioning the video: ‘Challenging the body one day at a time! My workout time is also my “Me” time. My mind is also not thinking about any other thing.
Calm yet focused, she holds her posture with remarkable control as her trainer supervises. Her training includes strength-building movements like these, designed to build core and upper-body endurance.
L-holds on a pull-up bar with added load, like a medicine ball, are excellent for building core strength and upper-body endurance, while kettlebell leg routines and ball-based back stabilization exercises help develop lower-body resilience and balance.
Wearing a striking red co-ord set sports bra and high-waisted leggings, Sumona exudes both confidence and functionality. The choice of barefoot training speaks to her grounded, mindful approach. No fancy gear, no distractions just focused movement. Her fitness philosophy is practical, empowered, and unapologetically herself.
Beyond the Gym: A Holistic Approach
Fitness isn’t a trend for Sumona, it’s a lifestyle she’s been building over 15 years. From hiking to pilates, surfing to functional training, her regimen is as diverse as it is disciplined. A recent retreat in Bali challenged her with new adventures like padel and ocean surfing, experiences she called “life-changing.” She’s also taken on stunts in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, pushing her physical and mental boundaries.
While fans missed her in Netflix’s The Great Indian Kapil Show, Sumona clarified there was no falling out just a natural shift after 10 years of togetherness on screen.
Whether she’s holding a pull-up bar mid-air or riding waves in Bali, Sumona Chakravarti is proof that reinvention isn’t loud, it’s consistent, brave, and deeply personal. Her strength isn’t just physical—it’s the strength to keep showing up, for herself, every single day.
