Vrushika Mehta on her life in Canada
After spending almost a decade in television, Vrushika Mehta married Saurabh Ghedia, a Toronto-based software engineer, in 2023. The actor moved to Canada after marriage and began her journey as a content creator, building on the audience she had already cultivated through her television career. However, moving to a new country brought significant changes to her life, from her career to the way she navigates her everyday lifestyle, including fitness, beauty, and dance.
“My life has completely changed after I moved here. We don’t have any house help here, and we have to manage everything on our own. Also, sometimes there is a feeling of loneliness with no family around, but I am grateful for all the good things that have happened to me here,” Vrushika said.
Vrushika Mehta on fitness
Vrushika shared that yoga was not something she focused on much while living in India. However, after moving to Canada, it became an important part of her routine. “I have started doing yoga and meditation to keep my emotional and mental state in check,” said Vrushika. “I follow a routine here because I have to manage everything on my own,” she added.
Sharing her love for dance, Vrushika highlighted how it has always been a form of therapy for her. “Dance is a therapy for me. Whenever it starts snowing here, I put on music and dance, imagining myself in a Bollywood movie,” Mehta said.
She also believes that fitness means different things to different people. “The definition of fitness varies for everyone. It’s not about looking a certain way, but keeping your overall health in check. Fitness for me is non-negotiable,” Vrushika added.
Vrushika Mehta on skincare routine
As a lifestyle content creator, Vrushika believes beauty is not just about applying skincare products but also about nourishing the body from within. “Hydration is the most important part of skincare, and I swear by Korean skincare products because they work for me,” she said.
Life as content creator
Vrushika also opened up about her life as a content creator in Canada, describing herself as a “one-woman army” managing everything on her own. “I have to do everything on my own while managing my content creation. The biggest challenge I face here is daylight, as it gets dark after 4:30 pm in Canada during winters,” said Vrushika. She also shared that she loves shooting outdoors, especially when she is dressed in a saree.
