‘Both of My Deliveries Were by Caesarean’: Bhagyashree Opens Up About Motherhood and Postpartum Fitness

Actress and fitness enthusiast Bhagyashree has spoken about her early experience of motherhood and her approach to postpartum fitness, sharing that both of her deliveries were through caesarean section.

The actor, who frequently posts fitness-related content through her recurring #TuesdayTipsWithB series, used a recent video to discuss core strength and the gradual return to physical activity after childbirth.

Bhagyashree is married to Himalaya Dassani, and the couple has two children, actor Abhimanyu Dassani and daughter Avantika Dassani.

Bhagyashree Recalls Becoming a Mother at a Young Age

Reflecting on her early years as a mother, Bhagyashree said she had limited awareness at the time about postpartum exercise and physical recovery after childbirth.

She also recalled hearing common assumptions about the long-term physical effects of a C-section.

“When I became a mother, I was very young. At that time, I didn’t even know that I should exercise after becoming a mother. Both of my deliveries were by caesarean,” Bhagyashree said in her video.

She went on to address the belief that a person’s body or fitness cannot improve after a C-section.

According to Bhagyashree, such broad assumptions should not discourage women from discussing safe and appropriate ways to return to physical activity with qualified healthcare professionals.

‘Despite Being a Caesarean, You Can Exercise’

In her fitness video, Bhagyashree demonstrated exercises focused on strengthening different areas of the abdominal and core region.

However, she also stressed the importance of checking with a doctor before beginning exercise after a C-section.

“Despite being a caesarean, you can exercise. Just ask your doctor when you can start,” she said.

That distinction is important because recovery timelines after childbirth and abdominal surgery can vary from person to person. The appropriate time and type of physical activity can depend on an individual’s recovery, medical history and advice from their healthcare team.

Her Focus Was on Core Strength

Bhagyashree explained that the three movements featured in her video were intended to target different parts of the core.

In the caption accompanying her post, she noted that core exercises can engage different muscle groups and that a varied approach may help build a stronger and more functional core.

She wrote that the exercises were designed to focus on different areas of the abdomen and discussed the idea of gradually rebuilding core strength after a C-section when a person is ready and medically cleared to exercise.

Her message was centred on encouraging women to approach fitness with patience rather than assuming that childbirth automatically prevents them from rebuilding strength.

Returning to Exercise After Childbirth Requires Individual Guidance

Bhagyashree’s video also highlights an important point about postpartum fitness: recovery is not the same for everyone.

Women who have undergone a C-section should not rely solely on social media content or general fitness routines when deciding when to resume exercise. Medical clearance and personalised guidance can be particularly important after surgery.

A qualified doctor or healthcare professional can help determine when it is appropriate to begin physical activity and what level of exercise may be suitable.

Fitness goals after childbirth can also vary. For some people, the focus may be on restoring mobility and everyday function, while others may later work toward improving strength, endurance or other aspects of physical fitness.

Fans Respond to Bhagyashree’s Tuesday Tip

The post drew supportive responses from several of Bhagyashree’s followers.

Fans praised her for regularly sharing fitness-related content and encouraging people to pay attention to their physical well-being.

Some commenters described her Tuesday fitness posts as useful, while others appreciated the message directed at women navigating physical changes after childbirth.

Bhagyashree has built a visible wellness-focused presence on social media, where her recurring fitness content often combines exercise demonstrations with messages about maintaining an active lifestyle.

Bhagyashree’s Career Continues Beyond Fitness

Bhagyashree remains widely recognised for her work in Hindi cinema, particularly her breakthrough performance in Maine Pyar Kiya.

Alongside her work in films and public appearances, the actor has increasingly become associated with lifestyle and fitness content through social media.

Her recent Tuesday tip adds another personal dimension to that content, connecting her present-day fitness journey with her own experiences of motherhood.

A Message About Patience and Professional Guidance

Bhagyashree’s latest video encourages a broader conversation about postpartum recovery and fitness.

Her experience may resonate with women who have heard discouraging messages about physical recovery after childbirth or a C-section. At the same time, individual experiences and recovery outcomes can differ significantly.

The most important takeaway is not that every woman should follow the same exercise routine or expect identical results. Instead, a gradual return to physical activity, based on individual recovery and medical advice, can help ensure that fitness goals are approached safely.

As Bhagyashree continues her #TuesdayTipsWithB series, her latest post combines a personal reflection on motherhood with a reminder that fitness journeys can evolve over time—and that professional medical guidance should remain an essential part of postpartum recovery.
