It is known that Arjun Kapoor had lots of problems while growing up and obesity was one of them. He has revealed that he has a condition that makes him put on weight very quickly and he has to work twice as hard than others to maintain his body in shape. Currently the actor is working with kickboxing world champion Drew Neal to keep himself fit.

Talking about the issue, Arjun said, “I think everyone knows that I’m a constant work in progress when it comes to my fitness because I have dealt with obesity and how it affects the mind on a daily basis. I have to work harder than most people and push myself to do double the level of workout to achieve a certain body type that is required to play a Hindi film hero.”

About his team up with Drew, Arjun said, "That’s why I met Drew Neal, who is simply incredible at what he does. He is the perfect trainer for my health condition. For Neal, every day is a training day. You realise after a point that it’s all in the mind and the more focused you are, the better the result.”

He added, "Drew understands that I need to be focused mentally as well as physically. He really spends time understanding what I am feeling and what I am going through. What my life is, what my work is and it’s also not always about the end result, it’s also about being consistent and continuous."
