They are excellent if you simply want to lose weight. But is that what you want? You need to ask yourself that. We all want to look younger, prettier, have more energy. Any diet that cuts down on a particular component and glorifies another, like those that say you can eat any amount of protein but no carbohydrates, will always leave your body weaker. It will break down your muscle fibre and bone tissue -- which is what happens when you are in a diseased state. You'll get irritable and lose sleep.

So you will get thin but will lose your vitality, charm and energy at the end. And the moment you start eating normal food, you gain double back. Being on a diet is about eating your normal food, just eat it more sensibly.

We all know Kareena Kapoor is your most famous client. Who are your other celebrity clients?

From the Hindi film industry I have trained Bebo, Saif, Lisa Ray, Karisma Kapoor and Sonali Bendre. Konkana Sen Sharma is my newest client. Industrialist Anil Ambani is also my client.
