I was taken aback when Salman Khan called me a fat cow: Rohit Roy talks about fitness
Salman Khan motivated Rohit Roy to stay fit.
Rohit Roy is one of the finest actors in the industry. Known for his acting, he is also a fitness freak. But did you know, the seed of staying fit forever was sown into his mind by none other than Salman Khan? The baddie in Kaabil gives credit to Salman Khan for mentoring him on fitness. Rohit Roy went under a major transformation before Kaabil & the actor is in no mood to stop. Apparently, the actor had met Salman before the film & his advice was a turning point for Rohit & the beginning of dedicated months of workout & diet.
Rohit shares, ‘One has to look right for a role, the demand for every project is different & hence the constant pressure. I really had to work hard to lose weight for Kaabil. I had to look in my 30s. But most importantly, what Salman had to say was a much-needed shot in the arm for me & like always he minced no words in saying that I’d become a fat cow & that I should stop making excuses because everyone has some problem or the other to deal with…that’s the day I turned it around.’
Too fit to come across as a father of a 15-year-old, Rohit has joined the fitness club & shares his weight loss story, ‘I underwent a total change in diet & workout. I cut out alcohol, desserts & fried food to begin with. My dinner would be zero carbs. Losing weight is not rocket science though. I changed my workout. I have run for an hour every day for two months straight come what may.’ Rohit Roy, after Kaabil, has signed a three-film deal with Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
