I have never really been a fan of working out at the gym, but this film required just that and it has paved way for a beautiful change in my life. I have a certain discipline now and follow a routine. Honestly, there is no end to preparation and it had to be a sustained effort. A lot of effort and will power has gone into getting this physique. I have attempted something that I have not done before, which is a big feat for me, and I am very happy."

He also added how initially he used to feel shy as vert little of the body was covered while filming but later he got used to it and he began to enjoy the sense of freedom. He also said how he needed to be technically sound as well and how 4-5 days of rehearsals were done before every scene. In the same interview, he revealed how getting into the character involved a lot of physical abuse as well.
