(MENAFN- IANS) Mumbai, Oct 15 (IANS) Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan served up some pre-Diwali inspiration that perfectly blends humour with style as she posed next to a backhoe loader and said that“when life gives you potholes, make it your runway.”

Soha on Wednesday morning took to Instagram, where she shared a string of pictures. In the first two photographs, Soha posed gracefully in front of a backhoe on a street dressed in a flowing, floral-printed lehenga with a sheer, embellished dupatta draped.

Ahead of attending the Diwali party, Soha shared a video doing mobility workout with cloth. In the video, the actress did movements with her hand on her gym mirror, leaving the mirror clean simultaneously.

Placing the towels below her feet, Soha also effectively mopped the floor of the gym.

She wrote as the caption: "Just a little pre- Diwali spring cleaning at the gym... wiping down the mirrors, mopping the floors .. and busting some calories! Who needs a hoover when you have this range of motion ? (Laughing and dancing emoji) #diwaliready #functionalfitness.(sic)"
