Gautami to spread Modi’s yoga mantra in TN
Actress Gautami Tadimalla is working on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s pet project of promoting yoga at all levels, starting with a Yogathon concept that will emulate the marathon concept of mass participation for a largescale yoga event.
Chennai
Gautami Tadimalla was overjoyed after her meeting with the Prime Minister at his residence on Friday, where she spent half an hour talking about something that is close to her heart —surviving cancer and fitness as well. The actress, who has always shared her personal battle with cancer as an example for others to beat the disease, met Modi to discuss her foundation, Life Again. Her vision is to involve rural India in a healthcare movement, and it was with this intention that she went to meet Modi. Talking about the interaction, Gautami said, “I had the wonderful privilege of meeting our Prime Minister this morning and shared with him our vision and goals for Life Again. Modiji was very kind to invite me to his residence. He listened with keen interest and offered several suggestions that are invaluable support to realising our dreams.”
Modi was extremely supportive about Gautami spearheading the yoga movement that he too is passionate about, in Tamil Nadu with a yoga-marathon. “We at Life Again have come up with this concept of Yogathon — a marathon in yoga that will mark International Yoga Day next year. We don’t want to restrict the concept to a limited few, instead want to take it to the masses so that everybody is conscious of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and this is being done with the guidance of the PM.”
