Your journey has been nothing less of a fairytale with your striking performances in the shows Behenein as Aakashi, Amrit Manthan as Rajkumari Amrit, Piya Basanti Re as Piya, Naagin as Shesha and Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil as Aahana. Share with our viewers your incredible journey of becoming an actor?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
I never really planned to become an actress it just happened to me. I was offered to model for a brand that was a print ad which I did. After that with print and commercial ads my journey began and then I was offered the Sony show. After which I got Behenein and Amrit Manthan as leads then Piya Basanti Re, Naagin and Naagin 2.
It has been a beautiful journey for me. By grace of God, people appreciated my work. I got the good shows at the right time. I thank God for being with me and my fans who’ve loved and supported me in whatever I do.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You started your career as a model, then did several advertisements and finally made your acting debut with Sony India’s TV show Palampur Express. How does it feel to be a part of the Indian Television Industry? Also introduce us to your day-routine.
Ms. Adaa Khan:
After doing modelling and commercial ads I never thought to go into dailies but I did. It feels really nice and proud to be a part of Indian television which is doing very well internationally. I am very happy and proud to be associated with Indian television.
Daily routine would be a good workout and healthy food. I usually don’t diet as such but I make sure to eat home-made food that works wonders for me. Doing power yoga works for my body.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Being an actress and model, staying fit is called upon. Unfold the exercises that comprise your fitness regime on a daily basis?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
Being an actress it’s very important to stay fit and healthy because we’re seen on the TV screens by people who look up to you and follow your trends so you need to be a role model and be very fit.
There is always a pressure to look good as we need to maintain our bodies, skin, hair and everything being in this industry. Exercise working well for my body is Power yoga which I’ve been doing for 8 to 10 years now. Staying healthy and fit is very important.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You Become What You Eat. What kind of diet do you follow to stay healthy and physically fit? Enlist your 4 favorite foods you would fall for anytime?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
Yes definitely bodies are made in kitchen more than the gym and I believe in that. I don’t follow any diet. Whenever I’ve followed a diet, I’ve fallen sick.
I eat healthy home-made food at home and then in every 2 hours eat in little portions and I avoid over eating, avoid sweets, reduce salt quantity, avoid aerated drinks and drink lots of water. This is what I follow which anyone can do at home as it helps a lot to maintain your weight.
4 foods which make me weak would be chocolate pastries, cheesy pasta, ice cream and pizza.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have glowing skin and long, flowing hair – what skin and hair care tips would you like to share with our visitors?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
For good hair and skin one must definitely give time to themselves. Working women who balance between their families and work just ignore themselves and don’t take care of their skin, hair, and don’t pamper themselves. I request all girls, women, and men that you should look and feel good and just be confident about everything that you have.
For good skin begin at home by drinking lots of water and green teas for detox. You can have fruits, juices, and dry fruits in your diet. Make sure to clean your face daily whenever you go back home and apply sun screen whenever you get out of home.
This is something very normal that anyone can manage. Keep oiling your hair that’s very important. If you’ve dandruff please use the dandruff shampoo or home remedy like onion juice which has worked wonders.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
How significant is exercise in living a fit & healthy lifestyle?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
Exercise is very significant in everyone’s life as it’s not about becoming skinny but about being fit. You may find it difficult to start doing exercise but once you start you will never stop it. More than wishing to be any body type start doing exercise by pushing yourself to do it. Removing 45 minutes or an hour in a day for your own fitness is important and just sweat it out.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
With an audience of over 1.6 Million followers on your Instagram account @adaakhann you’re a social media sensation and an internet leading star. How does it feel that you are able to inspire and motivate so many individuals?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
I am truly honoured by love that everyone has given me be it the fans or audiences. On social media it’s too difficult to keep up to everyone’s expectations. As actors we try our best to do so and am very happy for love and affection that everyone has given me.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Recently, you won the Indian Kalakar Award for the Best Actress in Negative Role and the Boroplus Gold Award for the Best Actress in a Negative Role (critics). How does it feel to have your years of hardwork and determination being rewarded and appreciated?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
It feels really great to be appreciated for your work. When fans and audiences send you mails of appreciation it’s an award for me. The awards that I’ve won for my shows are a proud moment for me. Every actor dreams to have many awards for appreciation of their work. I feel very grateful that people appreciated me and my work so it feels nice. Mostly I like seeing smile on my father’s face when I get an award.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Inspite of giving guest appearances on Bigg Boss, you haven’t appeared as a participant on the show. Your fans would love to know if they would be able to see you in a reality show soon?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
Yes I’ve done performances and appearances in Bigg Boss where I’ve met participants in Bigg Boss house. I am not too sure if I want to do Bigg Boss and see myself as a contestant because I don’t know if it’s my cup of tea or not. I think that I am not going to do Bigg Boss.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Cut-throat competition dominates in all areas of our life. Extend out of your experience, role of hard work to survive in the film industry. What would be your best tips for a newcomer entering Bollywood?
Ms. Adaa Khan:
Competition exists everywhere today but it should be healthy. When you compete with others you become bitter but when you compete with yourself you become better so always try your best to make yourself better each day. More than competing with others, work on your weaknesses, work very hard and slog your ass off and be better you everyday who has what he / she wants to achieve in life. Go get your dreams.
