Don't want to make money: Shilpa Shetty on health initiatives

Bollywood actress and fitness enthusiast Shilpa Shetty, who has launched her web channel 'Shilpa Shetty Wellness Series', says she does not want to earn money from the health awareness work she is involved with.

"My intention to initiate this channel is mainly for those people who cannot afford a gym or nutritionist and not get enough time to take care of their fitness, especially working women. It will give them a chance to find quick and effective workout regime, balancing fitness with right food, interesting quick recipes and many informative things related to fitness," Shilpa said here.

"I would be more than happy to know if I can bring change in even one person's life on fitness. I do not want to make money out of this (health awareness) as I wish to see a healthier universe. And I mean ... between health and money, money comes later."

The web channel was launched in the presence of another budding Bollywood actor and fitness enthusiast Tiger Shroff here on Thursday.

Tiger said: "If you ask me about eating right food to get fitness, I don't want to use to the word 'diet' as it is so depressing. Fitness and good health is a state of mind and I believe in following a healthier lifestyle."
