In the past few days, whenever Vicky Kaushal has stepped out in public, the paparazzi, as well as his fans, have been taken by surprise by his leaner body. The actor has indeed lost a lot of weight for his upcoming film with director Shoojit Sircar.
“Vicky has lost about 13 kg in just three months for Udham Singh. He has lost all the weight to play the younger portions of Singh. It wasn’t an easy task but he was clear about shedding the weight, in order to look convincing as a 20-something boy,” says a source.
To achieve the desired results, the actor, who is quite a foodie, was on strict diet control for close to three months. “He is a Punjabi boy who loves his food but he knew he had to control his urge. Plus, he worked out diligently with his trainer on a daily basis. There was no way he would have given up as he knew the importance of acquiring the lean look,” adds the source. Vicky is set to leave for a 25-day schedule in Amritsar, Punjab soon.
Interestingly, the actor needs to gain all this weight back, and maybe some more, for Karan Johar’s period film Takht, immediately after wrapping up Udham Singh.
