Earlier, Shilpa had shared a family work-out video, revealing how tries to inculcate a sense of discipline in Viaan: "Oftentimes when Raj Kundra and I work-out in the mornings, we get Viaan to join us too. We do understand that if it's not fun for him, he's not going to enjoy the process. So, while we roped in some abs workout for ourselves, we got him to hop, slide, and jump around."
