Remember Chak De girl Vidya Malavade? The actor, who is now a yoga teacher and Ashtanga yogi, has been inspiring us with her fitness pics. Take a look!

Watch her do the urdhva dhanurasana. 'This is the deepest urdhva dhanurasana I have ever been in (shoulders and chest almost in line with my wrists)', she reveals. Photographs: Courtesy Vidya Malavade/Instagram

Some of her basic postures to open the psoas (hip flexor) and the shoulders...

...and effortlessly she slips into a stretch.

This is not as easy as it looks. Vidya attempts a yoga trapeze.  

Bend it like Vidya. Such flexibility comes only with practice and her weeks of practice is finally paying off. 

Wonder if yoga was solely responsible for that incredible figure.

Yoga makes her happy and her dedication is the proof. 

This is how she celebrated International Day of Yoga.
