So, Indian ministers (and celebs) have been taking a #HumFitTohIndiaFit challenge and it's a rare sight!

Yesterday, Union Sports Minister, Rajyavardhan Rathore kickstarted a fitness challenge that has already gotten some of the biggest and most iconic people in India involved. The #HumFitTohIndiaFit challenge is trending and snowballing into something bigger.

It all began with Rajyavardhan Rathore, and soon enough, names such as Virat Kohli, Hrithik Roshan, Saina Nehwal, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Anushka Sharma and even Prime Minister Narendra Modi and more became involved with the initiative.
