As her sporty sneakers suggest, Fernandez, 25, likes to play, and as her attire suggests - she likes to play in more ways than one!

Recalling the cover shoot, Andpersand executive editor Jayita Bandyopadhyay says of Jacquiline, "She came, she played and she mesmerized."

"Jacqueline was in the mood to have fun as she played with exercising rings and big, neon balls. Fit was fun for her.

"She said: 'Starving myself to lose weight is just not my style. It's a cruel thing to do to your body.'"

Maybe the lass doesn't realize that flaunting her sexy figure can be cruel thing to do to our bodies.

So what is Jackie's fitness mantra? How does she maintain her perfectly toned figure?

"The way to stay fit is to break into a sweat. Just sweat out the fat. You can do it in your own way, in the gym or by jogging or anything else. You have to just get your heart thumping," says the actress.

"I do yoga," she reveals. "Every morning, it's like brushing my teeth. I experiment a lot with it as well. One day I do power yoga, the next day I would probably do ashtanga. Or I would just do some calmer, relaxed postures."

Jackie believes that 'being fit' means 'looking sexy'! We couldn't agree more.

Jackie made her acting debut in Sujoy Gosh's fantasy movie Aladin (2009) alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, and Ritesh Deshmukh.
