As Sharwanand awaits the release of 'Oke Oka Jeevitham' (releasing on Sept 9), he is in the news for pulling off a physical makeover. In the last few years, the 'Shatamanam Bhavathi' actor put on weight and had to say 'Sreekaram' to weight loss at one point. He hopped onto the challenging 'Ranarangam' of fitness with his eyes firmly on his 'Gamyam'. The result is a slim and suave Sharwa, whose latest pics are impressing his admirers.

The actor had suffered from a shoulder bone fracture and had to push himself harder to be able to get back in shape. His perseverance is commendable.

On the work front, Sharwa is poised to score a hit with 'Oke Oka Jeevitham', which is directed by newcomer Shree Karthick. So far, three songs from the movie are out. Co-starring Ritu Varma, Amala, Vennela Kishore, Priyadarshi, Ali, Ravi Raghavendra, Yog Jappe, Madhunandan, Jay Adithya, Nithyaraj, and Hitesh, the film will be released in both Telugu and Tamil. 'OOJ' has stunts by Sudesh Kumar.
