Mumbai/IBNS: As India led the world in celebrating International Yoga Day, Bollywood celebrities also joined the event as they posted their images on the social media platforms, practicing yoga postures.

Bollywood beauty Kareena Kapoor Khan posted: "More stretching, less stressing 🧘🏻‍♀️ Stay flexible, stay fit and stay fab! . @mcmary.kom @rahulkl and @duteechand, it's your turn to #StretchLikeACat with @pumaindia."

Bollywood actress Malaika Arora Khan also shared a small video and captioned it as: "Hey everyone, hope you’ll are enjoying the best Sunday that its also International Yoga Day! Here’s a little challenge to ‘activate’ your evening. Let’s see if you like it! - Click the play button and start the video - Take a screenshot - Whichever pose the screen stops at, you have to do that pose and challenge one friend of yours to do the same - Upload it, tagging me."

Actress Shilpa Shetty, who has inspired her fans with her yoga practice, added: "Wishing you all a very Happy International Yoga Day.
Today I’ve shared a personal ritual with you all. I've been chanting the Shanti Mantra after every yoga session, because it helps me tell the Universe, our guiding force in nature... that I surrender to the will of nature. I accept that I don't know it all and I want to be drawn towards a better existence. I understand how limited my knowledge is of my own being and ask to be connected to all elements of nature in the way that humans were meant to be. Today, I pledge to work on bettering myself every day, so I can be of service to all in this lifetime, how I was intended to be. When this acceptance comes from within, you start realizing the deeper meaning of life. Shared the mantra here along with its meaning. Hoping we can all adopt and follow it as a way of life."
