How Hrithik Got His Groove Back
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,August 13 2012]
With the rippling muscles and the heavy duty action in Karan MalhotraÂs Agneepath, itÂs a little tough to believe actor
Hrithik Roshan when he says he was in his worst shape by the end of the filmÂs shooting schedule. He also says that Krrish 3 was on the verge of being shelved: I suffered a double slipped disc. Dad said, ÂLetÂs not make it (the film).Â
The doctors advised me against doing such a (physically demanding) film, because it would further hurt my back and knees. Yet, sounding a little like Bruce Wayne from the latest Batman film, he says, I took a close look at my life and wanted to get back into shape...
So I took the doctorÂs diktat as a challenge. I decided to go the distance and do something that sounded impossible. Hrithik flew in trainers from Wales to help him with his workout.
He says he is now back to his best physical form, having shed 10 kg since Agneepath. I am back to my best health and, more importantly, I am feeling good. I have just completed 85 days of hardcore action for Krrish 3.
I have sailed through all of it, which proves that the effort has been worthwhile.
However, Hrithik clarifies that his workout regimen and his new look arenÂt for any particular film.
Of course, it becomes part of any new project I do at this point of time. Plus, I knew that I had to be in my best shape for Krrish 3.
