Talking to I.A.N.S, Rohit told, “I was a little unfit and had to get into shape really quickly. I lost around 7 kgs in a month for the role. There is a drastic change from when I had auditioned to now when I’m playing the role.”
The actor mentioned his weight loss journey on how he worked out for hours daily to come back in shape. Speaking on same he said, “I worked out for almost three hours daily. In the early morning, I did cardio exercises like cycling or running. In the afternoon or evening, I did weight training, which helped me lose all the extra pounds I was carrying. Also, I went on a very strict high protein diet and intermittent fasting for 16 hours, which helped.”
The actor also spoke about his role of a young industrialist named Rishi Oberoi that he is portraying currently in ‘Bhagya Lakshmi’. Speaking about the similarities which imparts to his on-screen character, Rohit said, “My character is that of a rich industrialist. He is very driven in life and loves his work. I’m also a motivated person, and can relate to this character. When it comes to work, I give my 100 per cent. I also don’t believe in fate, I can write my own fate with hard work I believe. It feels nice to play something which you actually are in real life!”
As most of the audience are shifting from television towards OTT, he spoke about his friends who only watch OTT. “A lot of people, even some of my friends say ‘oh we watch only OTT platforms’. Once I went to a friend’s house, he was actually watching an Indian daily soap on TV. When I directly asked him the reason, he said, there’s something interesting happening on the show! I feel a lot of people still watch daily soaps who do not have access to OTT subscription, so their only option is to watch TV,” the actor said.
Speaking about his latest show, Rohit said, “The show has a nice concept. I really hope people watch and like it.”
‘Bhagya Lakshmi’ also features Aishwarya Khare in the lead, and the show airs on Zee TV.
