The actor is following a strict regime to lose weight. This includes an intense one-hour workout session in the morning.
In order to attain his desired number, he will train exactly the way the wrestlers train. His diet is also carefully monitored and s currently under the supervision of dietician Dr Vinod Dhurander.
