Videos: After Anushka and Tiger, Varun and Sushant take up the fitness challenge
Hrithik Roshan had also taken up the challenge, but it got backfired for his irresponsible behaviour.
Mumbai: Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore recently came up with an innovate initiative on Twitter where he narrated how Prime Minister Narendra Modi wanted the country to be fit.
Calling it the fitness challenge, Rajyavardhan himself shared a video to motivate India towards a healthier lifestyle. Following that video, many sports and Bollywood celebrities took up the challenge and now it has become a rage among many. Here are some who took it up:

Hrithik Roshan had also taken up the challenge, but it got backfired for his irresponsible behaviour. Meanwhile, many others, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi have promised to post their fitness videos, which are being looked forward to with bated breath.
