Kartik Aaryan has put in immense hard work for his upcoming film, “Chandu Champion”. The young actor underwent an extreme transformation to play the role, which is clearly visible in the trailer.
Incredible Physical Transformation
Recently, Kartik took to social media to share a then-and-now collage of himself, emphasizing the significant amount of fat he lost for his character.
From 39% to 7% Body Fat
In “Chandu Champion”, Kartik portrays India’s first Paralympics gold medallist, Murlikant Petkar. To achieve the desired look, he had to make several lifestyle changes. Kartik explained his journey in the caption of his social media post, revealing that he reduced his body fat from 39% to 7%. This journey turned him from an insomniac into a fitness enthusiast.
Inspirational Journey
Kartik expressed that this one-and-a-half-year journey made him a stronger person and reinforced his belief that dreams can be achieved with dedication. He wrote, “The life of the living legend Mr. Murlikant Petkar not only made me a stronger human being but also further instilled the belief that if you can dream it, then you can achieve it… nothing is impossible.”
A Touch of Humor
The actor humorously mentioned that while his mom used to suggest he go to the gym, she now requests him to come back home from the gym.
