It is the job of the stars to prove themselves in a broken character. From Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan to Akshay Kumar, Bollywood actors have established themselves in this way. This time, Karthik Aryan stepped on the same path. His most challenging film ‘Freddy’ is going to be released very soon. The actor had to gain 14 kg weight for this film.
On this day, Karthik posted a before and now picture from his Instagram handle. He captioned it that It’s Freddy’s origin story that puts him through so much stress, and sleepless nights, the opportunity rarely comes where we get to show a completely different side and Freddy is that character.
Karthik’s fitness trainer Sameer Juara told the news media, “Since Karthik’s body structure is skinny type, his process of gaining 14 kilos was not very easy. Had to diet properly. But, his dedication and seriousness did not stand in the way of anything. ‘Freddy’ is releasing on Disney+Hotstar on December 2. Several stars have gained weight for the character before. The first that comes to mind Aamir Khan had to weigh 95 kilograms for the film ‘Dangal’. In 2015, Bhumi also had to gain weight for her Bollywood debut ‘Dum Lagake Haisa’. The 90-kg Bollywood actress is now slimmer. She bagged the best actress award after one.
