Actor Arjun Kapoor had quite a share of problems while growing up. He had to bear the pain of divorce of his parents and he also had a weight problem. During an appearance in a cooking show, Arjun revealed how he handled his parents splitting up and and also shared his coping mechanism. Apparently, the actor found solace in food and started stress eating a lot. He weighed around 150 kgs bt the age of 16.

Arjun said, "When my parents split up, I looked at food for comfort. I got caught up in the way I felt emotionally, so I started eating, and then really enjoyed eating."

He further shared, "It is very difficult to let go because eventually, there is nobody to stop you beyond a point. Your mother loves you, she will reprimand you, but you are still a kid. They give you benefit of the doubt ki yeh umar hai khane ki, theek hai (that this is the age to eat, so it is okay). It reached a point where I developed asthma, I developed injuries because of it and I reached 150 kgs by the time I was 16."

Arjun underwent massive weight loss before making his film debut with 'Ishaqzaade'. He was recently seen in 'Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar' and the trailer of his upcoming Netflix film 'Sardar Ka Grandson' was also released a while ago.
