Hrithik Roshan shares how he celebrated after giving perfect body shots for ‘Fighter’
IIE Digital Desk: Actor Hrithik Roshan, who is receiving immense praise for his role in ‘Fighter,’ emphasized the importance of planning one's victory just as meticulously as the journey to achieve it. He discovered this lesson while achieving the perfect body shots for the Siddharth Anand-directed aerial action film. The actor admitted that he turned to smoking as he was unsure of how to celebrate his success.
In an interview with Film Companion, Hrithik Roshan disclosed that he had to undergo three distinct body transformations for 'Fighter,' and he found the process exceptionally challenging.
He shared, ‘I had to do three transformations, one just to check if I still have the ability before the film started, then did another when the film was on the floor, and then they had to cancel the shoot because of the weather conditions where they had to shoot. Then, I went on my summer break with my boys and when I came back I had to do the third transformation in 6-8 weeks. It was incredibly difficult and I had to shoot three songs back to back while I was doing transformation, which meant there was no fuel and I was just running on steam.’
He added, ‘When the day came and my body shot got done, it got over, I was so happy and relieved. But nothing was filling me up. I had gajar ka halwa, ice cream, I had not planned for the reward, I had only planned to be in this Fighter flight mode and get this done’
He continued, ‘I was like, ‘What do I do? What do I do?’. So, I picked up a cigarette and started smoking. I went into the other deep end and that’s a learning in itself because, in one week, my resting heart rate went up from 45 to 75. It’s that bad for you. So, I stopped. But it was a disaster. We only plan, schedule and brainstorm about the building, but what happens after the victory? That also needs a plan.’
Hrithik Roshan's remarkable performance in 'Fighter' has left both the audience and critics in awe. The acclaim for the film has bolstered his confidence as he gears up for 'War 2,' where he will be sharing the screen with Jr NTR.
He expressed his readiness, saying, ‘There’s enough that has filled me up and encouraged me. I have received plenty of accolades for 'Fighter,' and I am grateful for that. I am all set and ready to go for 'War.' I have received the motivation I needed.’
'War 2' is slated for a 2025 release and is a part of the YRF Spy Universe, directed by Ayan Mukerji.
