Kalyug actress Smilie Suri says pole dancing gave her the focus and grounding she needed to heal herself after facing a setback on the career front. Smilie, niece of Mahesh Bhatt, announced a four-day long Shakti Pole Camp on Wednesday. "Pole dancing gave me the focus and grounding I needed. It helps develop a focused state of mind and in the end, after training, I used to be so tired that I used to get a good night's sleep, which is hard to achieve otherwise. Malkham and pole dancing is like a 'tapasya' for the body and mind and it can help cure depression," said Smilie.
