In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Sen wished her fans and followers a Happy Holi as she gave them a health update.


"#wheeloflife cleared by my cardiologist! stretching begins!!! What a feeling!!! #oneweek #slowandsteady #breathe This is my "Happy Holi"! how was yours? I love you guys," the former Miss Universe captioned a picture of hers which showed her stretching.
