No gym for Genelia D’Souza

Actress Genelia D’Souza seems to be a favourite on the brand scene as she is constantly seen promoting one thing or the other on television. Talking about her interest in fashion, D’Souza says, “Fashion is something that excites me a lot and I try and be as abreast of the trends as possible. But I don’t think I am veering towards starting my own fashion line. There’s no such plan on the anvil. I’m quite happy being an actress and sporting various creations.”

D’Souza, who is also very active in the micro-blogging site Twitter, thinks it is the best form of communication and helps her to be in touch with her fans. Recently there were reports of some actors going off Twitter citing security concerns but D’Souza remains unperturbed.

“In fact, I think Twitter is the best medium to stay in touch with your fans and actually get a real-time response from people. It’s fast, convenient and very easy to use. And since you are in charge of the content that you choose to put up, there are no privacy issues.”

The actress, who has always been very fitness conscious, says that she doesn’t believe in sweating it out at the gym. In fact, the actress is a self-confessed foodie.

“I am an absolute foodie and I not very fond of the gym at all. But since the very beginning, I’ve been very big on sports and that’s how I manage to keep my healthy frame. Sports help fasten your rate of metabolism and that’s what I swear by. I’m not a diet freak but I do make it a point to eat healthy and stick to home-cooked food most of the time, though I do allow myself some indulgences occasionally,”  she ends.
