It is a well-known fact that actor Farhan Akhtar underwent a major physical transformation for his role as boxer Aziz Ali in his recently-released movie 'Toofaan'. He recently took to his Instagram profile to share how he transformed and stepped into the skin of the character.
Sharing three pictures from his transformation journey, Farhan Akhtar showed his fans how he moved from 69kgs to 85kgs to back to 77kgs. While two of the pictures showed him in toned abs, the middle one saw him having a large paunch.
The 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' actor wrote, "The many shapes and sizes of Ajju aka Aziz aka Toofaan. What a ride. 18 months of relentless work but worth every drop of sweat, every sore muscle and every pound gained and lost. The stars behind the scenes - @samir_jaura @drewnealpt @anand.physio."
Take a look!
The pictures grabbed eyeballs and many actors and fans showered praise on him for showing commitment and dedication. On Farhan's post, his friend and fellow actor Hrithik Roshan commented: "Man! 69 to 85?! That's insane." Other actors including Abhishek Bachchan, Bhumi Pednekar, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Sports Presentator Shibani Dandekar too congratulated him for achieving such a feat.
