Celebrity fitness advocate and actor Milind Soman is again in the limelight, but this time not for advocating any of his fitness moves, but for his mother, who turned 81 and celebrated her birthday with some adrenaline rush.

The fitness enthusiast actor’s mother seems to be cut out of the same cloth.

The agile 81-year-old marked her birthday with push-ups.

The whole action was caught on video, and she did it with ease and smile.

Milind wrote on his Instagram account, “3rd July 2020. 81 amazing years celebrated with birthday in lockdown. Party with 15pushups and a jaggery vanilla almond cake baked by @ankita_earthy ? happy birthday Aai ??? keep smiling !!”

Milind also shared a family photograph.

The photo showed Milind with his wife, Ankita Konwar and mother Usha Soman.

Ankita also shared a heart warning post for her mother-in-law. It read, “81, fit and fabulous!

Last year for her 80th birthday, she chose to go scuba diving in Bali and this year she was supposed to be bungee jumping in Zambia ?

Even though that couldn’t be done given the current situation of the world, we are still so very happy to be able to celebrate her birthday in a happy healthy home ?

Grateful for every moment ??

Happy 81st @somanusha ??.”

Milind has been encouraging people to to stay fit and try out a "new movement."

Recently, he took to social media to post a short workout video. In the video, he starts off with push-ups but there comes a moment when he literally goes up in the air.

"Trying a new movement. If you try it too, be careful and don’t blame me if you break your teeth," he captioned the video.
