Actor Katrina Kaif says returning to her fitness regime after recovering from COVID-19 was a slow and steady process.

The 37-year-old Bollywood star had tested positive for the novel coronavirus in April.

In an Instagram post on Saturday, Kaif said after testing negative she decided to let her body heal at its own pace.

"Back at it, Post covid I’ve had to be patient with myself in terms of getting back to exercise - you have to go at your own pace and listen to your body, you have good days and then days when you feel exhausted again.

"Going slow and trusting your body’s healing process and giving yourself time. Step by step,” she wrote.

On the work front, Kaif is awaiting the release of Rohit Shetty-directed Sooryavanshi, opposite Akshay Kumar. She also has the third installment of Tiger franchise with Salman Khan, a movie with Sriram Raghavan and Gurmmeet Singh's supernatural-comedy Phone Booth in the works.
