Arjit Taneja (Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye):
"One resolution I often find myself repeating every year is maintaining a consistent fitness routine despite my busy work schedule and some me time. As someone who’s always been passionate about health and wellness, I start strong, but somewhere along the way, the shoots, travel, and long hours tend to throw me off track. It’s not just about physical fitness but also about finding time for myself amidst the chaos. This year, I have decided to give it a more structured approach—focusing on achievable goals like a quick workout session, even if it’s just for 35–40 minutes, and prioritising a nutritious diet when I can’t hit the gym. I’ve also realised that fitness is a lifestyle, not a checklist. Repeating a resolution doesn’t mean failure—it means perseverance. It has taught me to be kind to myself and celebrate the little wins along the way."
Aishwarya Khare (Bhagya Lakshmi)
"A resolution I keep coming back to is doing yoga consistently. The first time, I pictured myself on the mat every morning, centred and disciplined. It lasted a few weeks before life, and my excuses got in the way. The second attempt came after I felt the physical toll of long hours on set. I started strong, but consistency slipped again as schedules got hectic. Now, I see it less as a checkbox and more as a way to reconnect with myself. I haven’t nailed it yet, but each attempt teaches me that even showing up occasionally is better than not at all. It’s a work in progress, just like me."
Simaran Kaur (Jamai No 1)
"In 2023, I promised myself I’d get better at cooking. I love experimenting with new recipes, but life got busy, and I couldn’t stick with it. This year, despite the late-night shoots, I made time for it—and now, my meals taste good. I sneak into the kitchen whenever I get a break or an early pack-up."
Dishank Arora (Tulsi—Hamar Badi Sayani)
"Last year, I had decided to start working out, but I only managed to make excuses. This year, I finally made it to the gym and stayed. Honestly, it wasn’t about the perfect workout or instant results. It was about showing up every day, even when I didn’t feel like it. Turns out, consistency feels way better than quitting. It’s not easy, but the small wins along the way make it all worth it."
Shruti Seth (Mr Saxena)
"The holidays are a time for indulgence, but I tend to go a bit overboard sometimes. It has been my sincere wish to be able to enjoy the holidays without giving in to temptation, be it with food, drink, or consumerism. I would like to make a resolution for the coming year to take as much as I need and not more, just because it’s available. To indulge in joyful activities without the need to overspend or overindulge."
Kunwar Vikram Soni (Vasudha)
"Ever since I made it to Mumbai, I had only one thought—to bring my parents to the city of dreams once I become successful. I wanted them to visit my show’s set and tour all over Mumbai. It would also be their first time on an aircraft. Sadly, I lost my father. Now, more than ever, I want to bring my mother to visit me at work, give her happiness, and let her feel her son’s success and make her proud. I am sure I will complete this resolution in 2025."
Aasif Sheikh (Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai)
"I have always been passionate about sports. The idea of being on the field excites me, but with age and a packed schedule, cricket took a backseat. At the start of 2024, I promised myself I would dedicate time to cycling, running and a little cricket. There is no workout better than sports. But, as usual, life got in the way. Despite my best intentions, I could not stick to the plan, and I will not lie, but it bothers me. Giving up is not my style. So, this resolution to cycle and play cricket is rolling into next year! With ample space near our Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai set, I am eyeing some cycling or long walks during breaks. While the resolution may still be ‘in progress,’ I am confident I will nail it this time."
Geetanjali Mishra (Happu Ki Ultan Paltan)
"I don’t know if it qualifies as a resolution, but for the past seven years, I have been determined to visit Kedarnath. Being a devoted Shiva bhakt, it feels like a dream waiting to be fulfilled. My first attempt was back in 2017—I had everything planned, but a personal emergency at home stalled my plan. Since then, every year, I promise myself, ‘This is the year I will finally go for his darshan.’ However, life always has other plans. There’s a saying, Bhagwan ke paas aap jaate nahi, vo aapko bulate hain, and I genuinely believe that. I feel my time has not yet come, but I am not one to give up. This year, my top priority is to make it happen, no matter what. I am keeping my faith strong and my hopes higher. Maybe 2025 will finally be the year when I experience the divine connection at Kedarnath."
