BIGG BOSS 8: Puneet Issar teaches Karishma Tanna kick boxing in the house

Bigg Boss 8


Bigg Boss season 8 is back with a bang and the reality show is getting interesting and entertaining with each passing day. Amidst some beauties and hunks, the plot has some surprising twists and turns in store for its viewers. Going by what we saw yesterday, Puneet Issar, who shifted from The Secret Society to the main Bigg Boss house was seen giving Karishma Tanna, an inmate of the main house, few quick tips on kick boxing. And the gorgeous TV actress followed the Veteran ‘Mahabharat‘ actor like a good student displaying keen interest in learning the key nuances of the art.



Punnet Issar, better known for his role as Duryodhana in Mahabharat, is trained in mixed martial arts, kung fu, etc. and that is the reason this 54-year-old man is physically fit. Well, it will be interesting to see whether his teachings help him find a place for himself in the extremely competitive Big Boss house . Only time will tell, whether his bonding with Karishma Tanna will last long or this relation will go through some ups-and down in the future.


Kick-boxing — throw punches and kicks to get toned


We all would have wanted to kick or punch someone at some point. Though going ahead with that could get you arrested, you can safely pack a punch whilst getting fitter with kick-boxing. It not only involves physical stamina but also mental alertness and hand-eye coordination – in short, a total mind and body workout. Neeraj Mehta, a fitness professional, nutritionist and director of GFFI fitness academy, writes on why kick-boxing is a fun and complete physical exercise.


Kick-boxing is an intense and fun workout for fitness and as a sport, it’s a relatively modern martial arts system derived by combining several fighting techniques from a variety of the more traditional disciplines including kung fu, kyokushinkai, karate, Krav Maga, Thai boxing and Taekwondo. It is a great physical power workout with emphasis placed on specialised techniques of kicks, punches and blocks delivered with full force.
