It’s a ‘spa’cial time
Long and tiring hours at work and the same old routine at home are all par for the course when it comes to Indian working women. So, having worked hard throughout the week, there’s nothing more relaxing than a day of pampering yourself. A therapeutic oil massage at your spa, a simple manicure or pedicure session, or even a
visit to your hairstylist can work wonders at the week’s end.
Actor-entrepreneur Eesha Koppikhar says a session of pampering is a great way to catch up with her gang of friends, whom she calls “V4”. “It’s something I always look forward to after long outdoor shoots. It’s great to catch up with them, just spend some ‘our-time’ and indulge in some great gossip, which seems unending and totally unsympathetic towards the person in question!” she says.
For model-turned-actor Shweta Bhardwaj, a session at a spa is generally followed by an evening at the movies, some girly chitchat or just lazing around. “It’s a nice way to spend some quality time with the people who are dear to you. My girls usually join me in this relaxation time. We engage in all the gossip possible during this time, as all of us are usually busy with our schedules throughout the week,” she says.
And while the company is rejuvenating, the therapies at a spa give your body the much-desired rest it needs. “After a long and tiring week, your body needs rest. If the body doesn’t get adequate rest, it will rebel. Also mentally, after a hard week, it’s good to de-stress with a spa session with your buddies. It just relaxes and rejuvenates you for the week ahead,” says Eesha.
However, for some like Dilkush Reporter, model, actor and host of the upcoming show, Superstar Santa, a session at a spa or a parlour is all about herself. “For actors and models, there’s no Sunday because you are working throughout the week. So a session of pampering is all about me. I don’t like to share it with someone else. I just like being by myself and pamper myself,” says Dilkush.
