Actress Mahika Sharma, who is currently in the UK, says she enjoys pole dancing as it helps her to stay fit, energetic, healthy and sexy during the ongoing lockdown. "As there are no gyms or yoga training centres open, I'm pole dancing to maintain myself and keep my energy on. It's a great way for me to de-stress," she said.

"The best part of pole dancing is that it's incredibly fun. You don't even realise that you're exercising. This also makes it easier to keep going and not give up anytime," she added. The former Miss Teen Northeast said she was initially shy.
